Forza Demo Hits Tonight: Wheel Deals?

[Coming Up]

I'm sure the Forzanians out there have heard and Che confirmed on the boards today. The Forza 2 demo hits tonight (super late on East Coast). The demo will support the Microsoft Wireless Racing Wheel.

Anyways, looking for a hot-deal on one. Sam's Club still the best?

Cheers.

I'd be excited if I wasn't 2,500 miles away from my 360 and the demo had online play.

 

[lordwow]

I would be excited except for the "Super Late" part.

 

[CAG 79]

Yeah that most likely means tomorrow for me.

Only other one I can think of is Amazon, $20 off MSRP (also J&R, but they charge shipping unless you live near one):

finally.. i was starting to believe this demo was a myth...

I figured they were waiting for the update to hit before they released the demo. I'll have to see how it plays with the controller because I can't afford to drop $150 on the wheel.

If I do decide to drop on the wheel, i'd go for amazon to avoid paying sales tax and I have prime anyway

Super late for you guys translate tonight for me!

Oh yeah, and my wheel has been screaming for it to be used too.

damn..you know a game is gonna sell well when people are buying a $150+ accessory in anticipation of the demo...

 

[VanillaGorilla]

We'll see.

I'm wary of the wheel. For the first game, I got the wheel that was "designed for Forza" and it worked like crap.

Well if it was GT5 you'd be spending $250.

I have had the 360 wheel for awhile now and I love it. The wheel comes with PGR 3 and you can tell who is using the wheel in the game and who isn't. The paddle shifting feels smooth, force feed back is sturdy and nothing feels cheap about the wheel or the peddles.

Also like to say that I got my Wheel and wireless headset free from that Pepsi contest a few months back. But I didn't win the free copy of Forza 2

well I think you mean the GT25, and At least that wheel is worth it in terms of build quality. the MS wheel is overpriced about $50-$70 for the feature set plus proprietary.

 

[VipFREAK]

I meant GT5 = Gran turismo 5

The wheel is G25... and yes, but I'm just saying M$ game and wheel is nothing compared to all the people that want GT5 and the G25. That is if you are a real car person and car gamer. I'm just too broke to get all that just for GT5.

You can't use it on the PC ?
I thought you could if you bought the wireless adapter .

 

[VipFREAK]

I can use it on the pc because I have the M$ wireless. The other logitech wheels have that option standard.
