Flashback, last year about christmas. Winter boredom is at an all time high,so off to best buy I go to cure this, in a driver simulation game sort of way and someway to steer and stomp versus a joystick ( which I suck at,because I am over 45 and astroids was our last hoorah! ) So I end up spending about 450.00 dollars and get the basics for my goal...The goal being a game set-up that will allow me to grow my skills and get familiar with different roadcourse's around the west coast. I was not interested in shooting crap and running over more crap for points or jacking cop cars , I wanted to drive !
I bought a playstation III controller,Logitec Driving force feedback wheel and pedal system and a Logitech 5.1 140 watt surround sound system and headed home to race in front of the big screen....After unwrapping and realizing that they expect me to clamp all this to a table and try to get comfortable for a race , MY STUPID HOT RODDIN INSTINCT tells me to head to the shop for a better solution. It was three weeks later and probably 200 hours after work but I finally got to play it in a more fitting way ! ENJOY !!!
