I'm pretty sure the black buttons on the shifter correspond to the PS3's "shape buttons". I know the bottom black button was definitely "accept" in the game which would make sense since the bottom button is X

Well I ended up getting the G25, and I love it! Okay so there are a few quirks such as the cheap feeling shifter but for what it is and what it costs, I think its a great wheel.

Doesn't fully work with Gran Turismo 5 on PS3 as I had hoped (and as they indicate on their site!) but maybe its because its Prologue and the full game will have better G25 support. The 6 speed works, actually, but the clutch does nothing. So you just row the car through the gears without worrying about lifting or using the clutch. More entertaining than using the DualShock but I wanted the same sim feel as in LFS.

Now I just gotta try and not suck at driving in LFS so much.

Thanks for the replies! My issue is that both of these arguments have gone through my head about it... I could wait and see and (heres the part that makes me want to jump on it now) hopefully the G25 will still be available if I don't want the extra features or price of the G27 (I don't know that will be the number, but one site suggested).

On the other hand, the G25 does do everything I want in a driving wheel and has PC and PS3 compatability so I can use it with both LFS and GT5.

I can't think of any additional features logitech could possibly add to make any wheel better... Only better build quality. Which most of the time build quality goes in the opposite direction.

I wasn't even planning on buying this yet but it being discontinued on Newegg alarmed me and made me start thinking that maybe I should get one while I still can.

So it seems the G25 is slowly being discontinued... but I can still find it for a lower price. $217 approx. I have always wanted to buy one but never had the $ to spend $300 on a wheel. Well now I do and I find this information. I'm sure logitech will come out with a new wheel but is it worth waiting? Or does the G25 cover all bases well?

sorry to say, but prepare to be banned.

it was just a question. no need to ban. a simple no would suffice

I have a crack for the previous version but it wont work for version U. Anyone know of a crack for version U? I want to use the BMW F1 car! I personally think that paying $45 for a game still in production is absoultely insane. illepall Brand new fully released games cost that much. I'm not paying for a half complete release. I'll buy when the full release comes out but i need the crack for this now!
