Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Logitech G25 Racing Wheel
Customer Review: Very, very good wheel.
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a VERY good wheel. It took me a while to get it to work with Windows Vista, but there is a trick to that. When it gets to the part in the software where it detects the device, unplug it for a few seconds, then plug it back in. If that doesn't work, then try leaving it unplugged until that process has started. About the wheel, everything about it is great. The Force Feedback is very strong, yet quiet, and the 900 degree rotation works well. The pedals all have fairly realistic tension and it even has a clutch and H-shifter. Overall, this is probably the best consumer wheel out there, and even rivals some of the high-end arcade ones. It is expensive, but it is very worth it. BTW: Live for Speed and GTR 2 both work great with the clutch and shifter!Customer Review: Review Edited... Not really Vista Compatible - Shifter problems...
Summary: 5 Stars
I must knock it down to 3 starts now...
The shifter does not center correctly in sequential mode. Been through two of them. Many, many others reporting the same issues. Throw forward to engage is much longer than throw rearward, and sometimes it never disengages rearward engagement, causing you to miss shifts and run off the track.
The software is NOT fully Vista compatible. The profiler is pretty well busted at this point.
I'm not sure how they can use the "Vista Compatible" label, and not have software available.
Same goes for the G15 Keyboard. Says it's "Vista Compatible", but the software does not work.
Neither has Vista downloads available as of this writing.
Customer Review: Not cheap, but extremely poweful
Summary: 5 Stars
Ive had this for over a year now, and its still running flawlessly, now it seems that game designers make the game a lot harder when you use a wheel, but i use this wheel on my gaming computer and my ps3, and after racing mustangs legally on a track for a couple years I have to say this is the best improvement on gaming wheels ive found yet. I don't recommend this if you aren't serious or going to get a good amount of use out of it because of its price. I also recommend you get a gaming chair set up for it to make use a lot easier. This isn't a cheap investment but I have found it more than use full time and time again. The clutch pedal and slotted shifter make this product a stand out to anything else on the market.Customer Review: Completely amazing

The best gaming Wheel ever! since my native language is spanish i will write in spanish..
Apenas saque el producto de la caja me parecio que estaba poco protegido, pero cuando fui sacando una a una las partes, me di cuenta que estaba hecho con materiales fuertes y durables. recomiendo ampliamente la compra, posee force feedback y vibracion, los pocos botones en el volante los justifico, dado que un volante de carreras no tiene tantos botones, solo se ven en los volantes de F1. Por otra parte, el Shifter me parece un poco de juguete asi como a mucha gente, pero pienso que tratandolo bien podra tener una buena durabilidad.
Thanks and if you buy it, you sure will enjoy it like me :)
Customer Review: Just excellent.
Summary: 5 Stars
Excellent wheel: extremely satisfied. Played with with GTR 2 (and M3 Challenge), Live for Speed, rFactor, RACE 07, Dirt, Need for Speed. GTR 2 is best. LFS is great with F1 cars.
Excellent value. The clutch is just excellent.
Gripe: the wheel auto-calibrates; so sometimes it doesn't center itself perfectly. Just have to jiggle it a bit in the control panel screen and it usually fixes itself. Also, none of the games had the controls working out of the box. Had to manually define throttle, brake, etc...
Pedals moves a bit on my carpet. Inevitable.
Everything else is superb.
I'd give 6 stars; not often do you get something so well-made.
