[quote name='brainmunch']Does this wheel work with the PC, if so how well? Is force feedback supported with games?[/quote]
Some guy actually just posted on the official forums a pretty decent review @

copy and paste for convenience:
Quality: 9.5/10
The quality of this accessory is superb. The wheel is built for being either put on your lap, or for being put onto a stand or table. The pedals never slip due to the little rest it has for your heels to sit. The paddle shifters are awsome to use in some situations like drifting and such. The actual wheel itself has awesome rubber grip on the top and sleek metal and plastic on the bottome half, which not only looks cool, but your hands never slip or get sweaty. Not to mention the force feedback, which is unreal. My motto is "Force Feedback or go home!" thats how much of a blast it is. The only bad thing with the wheel's quality is the battery pack. Whenever I turn the wheel off, it starts to shake for some reason, so I have to take out the battery, but that just might be a defect on mine.
Fun Factor: 8.5/10
Well I'm not gonna lie, but when you first start to use the wheel, you're going to hate it and want to return it, but after 2 or 3 races, you'll love it. It's kind of hard to get the hang of, but if you're a good driver, it shouldn't be a problem for you lol. The wheel just adds soo much more replay value to your racing games, you strive to get better and better to the point where people online can't tell if you're pwning with a controller or with this wheel. But honestly, I only use the controller for playing with friends, or in single player, if you're planning to play competitively, you should use the controller.
Compatibility with games: 8/10
The games that this wheel is meant for is an absolute blast. PGR3 is one awsome experience, especially trying to get your virtual drifting on. Forza 2 was incredible with playing it on the wheel, it just felt so right and the way it should that it kinda scared me. The force feedback is spot on in both Forza and in PGR3, but some games just don't work as well with the wheel, like Need For Speed Most Wanted and Test Drive Unlimited. It plays well on the DiRT demo, but it's just way to hard, it's accurate, but just a little too hard for going 80 mph on dirt and gravel.
But for the most part, it works well with games, just not with games that already have hard controls with the controller.
Overall: 9/10
No joke, this product adds so many hours to your racers, and I definately reccomend it for anyone that's a gear head like me. And with the already included PGR3, you can just sell your old copy if you have one. I'm 100% satisfied with the wheel and would definately reccomend it, so if you're in the market to buy one, go for it. You won't be disappointed, or at least I hope you won't be lol.
