Nice review, thank you. It's nice to hear someone actually review the product instead of just complaining or saying something along the lines, "It's crap. It's the same as the previous wheel. WTF is Logitech thinking?" I like how you seemed very unbiased in your experience with it, and brought the facts. I just bought one (at a discount even) and am excited to try it out. It is my first wheel, coming from a controller. I didn't want to jump in too deep with a Thrustmaster or something more. I've used Logitech products in the past and have been satisfied with them and their customer support.
Thanks Ali. It's a weird time to review products because prices have gone up so much, makes it more important to be fair. I actually enjoyed the wheel and I know a fair few people who have had their G29/G920 for years (some with the G27 still going quite happily). The T300 is good, but the Logitech pedals are better and I think TrueForce is actually enjoyable. How much was the discount, out of interest?
@@vincentvega4186 Nope... this belt-driven garbage is far behind... you dont even have deadzone with an G923 when you set the minium force high enough. Next step would be direct drive... sadly most direct drive wheels ala Fanatec are overpriced like hell.
Cheers! I think if you know you will stick to sim racing and can afford it, the mid-range Fanatec and Thrustmaster stuff is great. Beyond that, the gains are much smaller but the price certainly isn't. But the CSL Elite and the three-pedal set is a lot more than the Thrustmaster G923 so if the price drops it will still make sense for some.
I dont want to spend my wad all on a steering wheel so I got a G923 and a RTX2070 SUPER, RiftS, Quest, 10700k, Valve index, HP Reverb G2 and whatever else new comes out next month that sounds interesting.
Ive always enjoed my g920 it felt great and made racing games a lot more enjoyable but my biggest gripe with the setup was the damned break peddle, the shear force needed to apply full breaking is just abursb. The fact that they fixed this issue is almost enough for me to upgrade and start using a wheel again. Otherwise a perfect reveiw, good delivery on your feedback and thoughts! awesome work again.
Just today i solved that problem. First you need to open the plastic cover that protects the mechanics of the pedals by unscrewing the pedals and 14 silver screws from the bottom. Then you need to unscrew the pedal and take out the little rubber part that actually makes the pedal so hard. Then you just use a razor or something sharp to make a big hole diagonally in that little rubber piece and voila. You break pedal doesnt feel like shit anymore. You can even take the rubber things out but I dont recommend it.
I’ve had this and a g27. My opinion. Worth it over a g92you had one? No. If you don’t have a wheel then yes go for it. This will be better then good for over 80% of you all out there. The g923 true force is a difference. Only if you’re into gaming heavily will you notice it. Al in all 8/10. Shifter will be good enough. If you bang gears hard get extended warranty on it 😂 9.5/10 on overall quality.
Its basically the g29/g920 rebranded with barely any improvements at a much harsher price. I may but when the price is reasonable but right now it is definitely a no buy for me.
A Tribe Called Cars yea I hope it does. I was gonna get a g29 as my first wheel but was saddened to know that it won’t be next gen compatible. I was happy to see a next gen come out. But then I saw that they hiked the price way to high (50 quid extra would have been reasonable not 100) i was saddened. However when this thing comes down in price I’ll probably buy it as it’ll be a great deal then.
It is the same "manufacture's suggested retail price" as all the Gforce wheels since they started. And it has a whole new Force Feedback system, that must work very good. Or why would all the best Sims have already implemented it?
@@Howie47 The problem is that the G29 or G920 got as low as £180-odd in the UK. The G923 is £350 in the UK at multiple retailers. Bit of a jump even if part of the problem is Corona affecting manufacturing.
@@ATribeCalledCars There is two things in marketing you need to be aware of. "Supply and demand" and "Manufacture's suggested retail". The later is usually always much higher then actual retail. But if demand goes up, then retailers keep raising the price. Hope that informs you.
Okay, so i redescovered my love for f1 and i pre-ordered the f1 2021 game, and currently i have a 15 year old or older trust predator with force feedback(more or less, its just force now, there are no drivers for the feedback so it just comes back to the neutral place) i just cant wait for my paycheck and ordering this bad boy, maybe i will upgrade later to a belt-driven simwheel, but now the logitech seems perfect
@@jerryhobknob7995 well the wheel is amazing in my opinion, but my experience with sim racing setups is limited, i've never driven belt or direct drive wheels, but this one is surprizingly quiet, it has a lot of force feedback, quick response time, and a lot of mapping that can be done because of the numerous buttons. I love it, i dont regret buying it or f1 2021, so realistic compared to f1 2020, i love both of them. I strongly recommend it if its your first ffb wheel, its really good
The G923 is $80 USD more than a G29 so it's dropped quite a bit recently. I was thinking about going for a Thrustmaster T300RS GT but it's up there in price especially with a shifter.
I paid $423 for my g923 with no shifter at Best Buy returned it 2 days later after finding the the same wheel with a shifter on Amazon with the shifter for $299! Just came in and I love it
Great review, very well laid out 👍👍.. I think you have changed my mind from this to a Thrustmaster T300. Either one will be my first wheel. Is the T300 superior, being belt driven?
In theory maybe a bit but it can slip and I think the Logitech feels more enjoyable to use. Probably better to base it on which ecosystem of products you may later upgrade to and/or whichever is cheaper. Both are decent options.
I have it it's fantastic with Gran Turismo seven I think I'm gonna try one of the trucking games and see if I can learn how to drive a truck because I have the gearshift as well
Just buy a t300rs or CSL Elite. They offer upgrade-ability, belt drive, stronger ffb and better build quality for a slightly higher price. The only thing Logitech would baybe be its better reliability(if that carries over to the g923). The CSL will probably also have greater re-sale value.
@@ATribeCalledCars Especially here down under it’s over a $200 gap between the G923 and the T300 with the G923 being $480 AUD and the T300 being over $600
It all depends on price in your area, for me the g923 is $300, t300 is $500 the csl is over $600. If people are comparing the g923 with a t300 then my choice would have to be to get the g923. I would be able to get a shifter and hand brake for less than a t300.
I do the odd one and would love to do more, especially the sim racing stuff. It is meant to be a bigger part of the channel! This review did pretty well so maybe I'm not so bad at it lol.
Nice review. Wish I had purchased the G29 before the Pandemic for 149 USD. Don’t really have the money for a rig yet so I will just wait for a sale. Also was hoping for more from Logitech like maybe an E Brake.
That's so cheap, not sure we'll see those prices again for a while. An e-brake would be cool, although I love the Thrustmaster one. It's just a bit expensive!
Don't remind me, I just had to rearrange all of them because I have my Xbox, PC, headphones, microphone, speakers, amp, game capture card, USB connectors, battery chargers, steering wheel and router all in the same area. Cable ties are your friend.
This! It's like playing with a SNES/Sega Genesis pad in 2020! No way I'll buy a wheel again until they give us a product of this century and generation, not a 1994 one...
@@ravenplate4733 Exactly I sold mine soon after purchase and said forget that until wireless comes out. I am shocked wireless isn't an option in this day in age
The thing with going wireless is that yoi have to consider input lag. Though, if you're worried about input lag, you probably won't be getting these. There are better options for more serious sim racers. Most people have dedicated sim racing rigs too or rarely unplug anything. So making them wireless would be catering to a very niche market imo. Unless people are willing to pay for more, I highly doubt that they'll even consider a wireless version.
@@LeOrangePotato console controllers do not have any input leg same tech can be used inside these things. Input leg was an issue in 2005 haha. I use to have a sim setup with cockpit and vr headset. It was a total mess with 13 wires everywhere. There is no excuse for wired tech this day in age. It would raise the price of the unit maybe $17.00 if that. Input 🦵 is such an old argument jees. Here guy's buy this wired tech for your next generation console hahaha At least vr is going wireless guess they solved the input leg issue. I guess we will haft to wait for tech to advance mean while I will roll down my oled tv like wrapping paper and voice command my house to have everything ready when I get home while waiting for technology to evolve enough to get rid of input leg on my wired steering wheel. Maybe I will watch space x launch a few rockets and re land them. Hope there is no imput leg for commands sent to comand module. PS I will have nightmares about input leg now.
when u are buying a ~~cheap~~ wheel then u got 2 options logitech wheel: takes 15 years to break thrustmaster: you have to send it to repair the second time you boot it up just get the csl elite
This wheel is currently on offer for £249 reduced from £349, with a honey voucher code even further reduced to £225. As the full price seems to be a sticking point, i believe this at £225 is a a very tempting buy..
I moved up from a controller and bought this + the h pattern shifter for around 300€ and ive been very happy, only criticism is about the brake pedal being even too stiff honestly, the wheel is absolutely great but i dont like the clamps since they sometimes pop up
I've not had any issue with the clamps, but then I did end up swapping to the PlaySeat Challenge on a permanent basis. H shifter is what I need to add to my setup!
@@obtainedlight4745 yeah g920 and 29 mixed into one, plus hopefully they fixed internal design flaws. the cable that runs thru the hub from the rim to the main PCB wore through and snipped a wire, even after soldering it mashes buttons on its own
With the new moza r3 bundle it's really hard to justify this anymore. I finally got a renewed g920 for Christmas after years of wanting to get my feet wet. All it took was one night of using it on forza motorsport and I'm already bitten by the bug. I'll be upgrading to the moza r5 bundle w/ 3rd pedal and h pattern shifter next year. The 920 get the job done though and gives you the experience, however you can tell where the gaps are that a DD base would fill.
Just remember that the CSL elite wheel is 500 euros for that... a WHEEL... no pedals included, just a wheel and wheelbase (because Fanatec has interchangable wheels) but you get a wheelbase and standard steering wheel that works for pc and ps4, and you have to buy an xbox one wheel seperately if you want one.
Thank you I was on the market for one thanks also dose it feels delayed and I am assuming the paddle shifter dose not work on SnowRunner also do you have a PC
No delay in the games I played, at least not anything to worry about. No shifter support on SnowRunner because it's automatic anyway except for the ability to sneak into gears using RB or equivalent. I do have a PC too.
Anyone think the G29 pedals are better with a rig though? Because you'll be able to press as hard as you want, as intended without the pedal base slipping across the floor? If I'm correct, the reason for the progressive spring in the brake pedal this time round was due to the consumer feedback from the G29 brake rubber stop pedal. Being the pedal base slipping across floors as a result of having to involve more pressure when applying the brake, due to the rubber stop (which I think with a rig it gives a more realistic breaking experience my theory is) in the G29 model. The progressive spring with the new model just provides a lighter resistance as I can only guess statistically most users have the pedal bases on their floors which means less chance of the pedal base sliding or moving across the floor or carpet or whatever, maybe? Therefore, as I have a rig to securely bolt the pedal base to, I propose maybe using the G29 pedal set with the G923 wheel for a more optimum experience if you have a rig ? Or do you think the progressive spring is just simply better, thoughts please?
You want brake travel, make it too tough or short and you end up with less feedback and a system more like a switch. The newer system is nicer to use and more intuitive in my opinion. It's why the T-LCM pedals are better still - precision usually wins out.
@@ATribeCalledCars Cool, I just brought the G923 so shall happily embrace the progressive spring version, in good haste kind sir as well I may add! Although I would love the thrustmaster TG 2, but it's slightly more than double the price of the G923. But I'm just a bin man budget sim racer anyway, when compared to today's standards.
@@JONACAN Honestly, I think both wheels are on a par so you are not missing much. Some people think the Logitech feels more natural, others disagree. The main thing is whether you enjoy it right! It might be worth looking up settings to get the best from it, depending on each game. Or embrace ignorance and never concern yourself with this stuff. Although I personally think making the steering lighter is more realistic. Good luck!
@@ATribeCalledCars Logitech the best when it comes to gear drive wheels anyway, and yes I love it will be great the truforce with gt7. I've never played with a belt or direct drive ever anyway. And fir me it feels like when I'm driving my civic ep3 type R in real life. So it's awesome the Logitech experience.
Deciding between g29 and g923 for my first wheel. G29 is £200 brand new and g923 is £250 brand new. Would you say the g923 is worth it at that price or should I stick with g29?
I think the revisions are probably worth it for an extra £50 as the pedals do work better and the force feedback is better although it's not a night and day difference. I guess you could save the £50 and put that towards a seat, handbrake or shifter for better bang for your buck.
I was a lifelong Logitech fan and used to own a G29 (actually, 3 of them). All developed horrible faults with the geared mechanism. Decided to sell up and go for a Thrustmaster T300 with the upgraded T3-PA Pro pedals and TH-8A shifter instead. Best move I made. The 923 looks good, but I can't see me going back to Logitech...... Sorry.
The T300 is decent especially with the upgraded pedals. Most of the budget pedals are a little rubbish but you can get used to them. As for reliability, I've heard negatives for all companies. Hopefully Logitech at least tried to make amends.
@@ATribeCalledCars, I hope so. They have some good products and the actual rim quality (with the shift lights) is definitely better than the standard T300 rim.
Just bought mine for 290 sterling. Yeah am happy with that, and i got the information on the TRUEFORCE feature ngl only one who actually went into it that i found. I too have assetto corsa competition
Hello, a question that wheel do you recommend for simulators to learn how to drive, example city car simulator, what would you recommend? Oh, and if it would work for other simulators and also for racing games, I guess, although I don't think I'll play, but anyway, I'm waiting for your answer.
Any driving simulator will help a little, especially those with traffic and somewhat realistic handling models. But unless you are learning auto it will help to have a gear shifter and clutch pedal.
@@ATribeCalledCars True, but you've so many customization options, you can keep adding to your set-up over time, the force feedback is on another level.
@@karl343 Yeah if you have more cash and know you're going to use the wheel a lot, maybe more investment is good. Although I personally think a reasonable wheel and a decent chair is a great start too. I have the CSL Elite, it's good. I'll probably do some steering wheel versus stuff soon and iRacing! Thanks for watching.
@@ATribeCalledCars Yes, I would like that, a G923 vs CSL Elite. I know the CSL Elite is better according to performance and such, but, is it worth the extra money?
@@ATribeCalledCars yes please. I appreciate it :) I think it will work. I am planning to buy it mainly because i dont want very expensive hardware and in my country one shop is selling them with shifter gratis but when asked if it is compatible they dont know....
Yeah the twisty bits at the front clamp it to a surface, including a desk. Just make sure it's reasonably strong because of the rotational force of the motor.
I think the burning question is, have they actually upgraded the potentiometers in the pedals that fail after a year of use? My last set I fixed three times and my current set I've had to fix once already leaving me without a clutch pedal 🤦♂️
@@ATribeCalledCars no way! You would think they would have updated them seeing as so many people end up with the same issue?! Mad that it happens with fanatec too though!
Isn't there a two year warranty? :) My G29 is 4 years old and has no issues. I did have to spray cleaner into the pedal pots a few times for spiking. Read reviews on the t300.
Buying a wheel soon and currently this is only 25nish pound more than a g29. I'm wondering though, can you disable trueforce? Heard it can cause numb hands with long use. Sadly I'd get a t300, but it seems prices have dropped for Logitech because the t300 is around £380.
@@samconroyy Thanks. So it doesnt come up on those who dont officially support it? And have you had any problems with the pedals losing sensitivity as some have mentioned?
@@hash-CCFF00 Correct, games with TrueForce have the ability to disable it, those without just have it off by default. Pedals are fine, I've seen people add stronger springs to the accelerator and clutch as they are looser. No loss in sensitivity for me though.
I would yeah, it's a great start and decently built. Good pedals and feels nice to use. Plus it seems to be cheaper these days although the G29 will do great too. If there's not much of a price difference go G923.
@@scootamayne610 G920 and G923 are both compatible with xbox series x, just remember that G923 has two models, under the same name... G923 has a playstation AND seperate xbox model under the same G923 name, they've ditched the "double digits for ps4 and triple digits for xbox" names (G920 vs G29 as example)
Im intrested in building my own racing sim rig, but I am confuse on building the cockpit. So If I want to build the vertical handbrake like yours do I need to buy a clamp to attach to the rig to make it look like yours or is the rig come with one itself? Also, it seems to be possible to mix and match different brand based on looking at yours you have a thrustmaster handbrake with logitech steering wheel. What is not compatible? so is the pedal and steering wheel need the same brand, but you can run different brand on shifter and handbrake?
You don't get a clamp for a handbrake and/or shifter with the PlaySeat Challenge. I got mine from another company, might be worth watching my PlaySeat Challenge review. I believe a link is in the description of that video. As for mixing and matching, generally you can't unless you find an adapter. My wheel, pedals and shifter are all Thrustmaster. Once you know what steering wheel you want, you can the Google compatibility with the rest or tell me the other components your planning on getting.
Vibratation based symphony. That phrase could have many uses. I’m so far behind in steering wheels. I ‘only’ have the very basic Logitech one that has the lacky band thing in it, it’s rubbish, so I just use controller most of the time. But, for me that’s ok, I race RC cars, so I’m used to that sort of interface.
A Tribe Called Cars there’s a few drivers you might of heard of that did some RC racing before going on to full sized cars, some of them were quite successful too. Pedro De La Rosa was good, I raced against Gordon Shedden before he got his BTCC start. And Lewis Hamilton’s first TV appearance was on Blue Peter driving RC cars. Even Ayrton Senna was into the hobby. I think most of the folks I race with would race full sized cars if they had the budgets. And the talent 😆 But you would be surprised how in depth the setup stuff is in a car 1 10th the size of a full sized car.
Yeah my inner nerd would lose years if I bought myself one of those mini off-roaders from Tamiya. They look so cool and the videos would suit the channel, but I'm not sure how many would actually watch. Maybe one day!
Yeah although Forza Horizon 4 isn't the best with a wheel. For drifting, it's fine. For racing, you'll want a high downforce car (I made a video about it, look for my Ferrari Evo XX).
It's available to buy now, Logitech told me deliveries are happening by the end of August. I got sent mine directly to test, one of the few journalist perks.
Hi there, I bought my last week and it does not have any deadline, actually the wheel is very precise. Of course, you can set deadzone in the game if you like, but I don't advise to.
What I want to know is what what is the plus and minus button do in the little turning knob with the arrow on it I have one and idk how to even use that
It's hard to say. The G920/G29 have crept back to £300 but rival steering wheels are more expensive too. Given the superior pedals, I'd say £250 maximum for the G923 but it could be a while before we see that, if ever.
@@ATribeCalledCars thank you! :) Loved the video btw, answered all my questions and wasn't 20 minutes long.

Corona may be the point. It's not beyond possibility that Logitech actually release at this price because of Corona, since the G29 is price gouging at £340 on UK Amazon due to low stock.
True, I imagine this is a low-hanging fruit that wasn't much to develop internally but could help boost funds while corony is killing economies.

@@ATribeCalledCars It's straight up price gouging. They are able to capitalize on the fact that their product is in unusually high demand by re-releasing the exact same product with negligible modification at a greatly increased price. Knowing that the price of this new product will compete competitively with even used prices for the old product. Its just business at the end of the day but I'm sorry it leaves me with a bad taste. This thing probably would not even exist if not for Corona.
As i have both ps5 and Series x i am wondering if i Can use g923 pedals for ps5 with g29 so i don’t need ti change pedals each time but just the wheel?
I would assume they work as the connection is the same but I didn't try. I would search the Interwebs to check as I'm sure you're not alone in asking. Update: Logitech confirmed via Twitter that it does work.
You could see if there has been a firmware update by connecting to a laptop/PC and running the relevant software (G Hub I think). Although it could be a game-specific issue so worth a Google in case.
So I have a thrustmaster t150 and it's okay, ffb is present but not informative for me and whenever I try to catch a slide quickly it loses calibration... Do you think the G923 is a clear upgrade from it? I play ACC, AC, Dirt 2.0, Project cars 2 and Gran turismo... I'm on ps4 too. Any help is much appreciated! Great video too dude!
I think the faster response of the G923 does make it better for catching a slide. Some would disagree but I think it's a more intuitive wheel. Hard to say if you would notice a huge difference though, so maybe see if there is a shop with one to test or see if a friend has one.
@@ATribeCalledCars Cheers for your reply! Literally 10 minutes after my comment I went and bought the G923, like night and day going between the T150 and G923, can actually drift and catch slides without losing calibration!

@@ATribeCalledCars 350 for the g923 but that is without the gear shifter.so in all would be £400. The g920 is £250 with the gear shifter also. But haven't tried any of them myself.

@@ATribeCalledCars that wheel looks great but the lack of clutch pedal is the quite the turn off i probably should of mentioned im wanting a wheel for drifiting on gran turismo 7 and assesto corsa with the occasional gt3 racing between the g923 and g29 is the difference really worth the extra£70
Not on the PC. Purchased a Driving Force Shifter with the G923 (after I couldn't get Windows to recognise the G27 Wheel) only to discover that Windows can't see the Shifter. Fortunately, you can make a USB Converter for the Shifter and plug directly into a USB to map.
@@capote5000 Makes sense and a difficult choice because you have Forza and Gran Turismo on different platforms. At least many others are multi-platform.
It's a good wheel, if substantially cheaper than the G923 it's worth it. Thrustmaster T300RS is an option but the cheapest version has two pedals that are less effective but the wheel is a bit smoother.
@@ATribeCalledCars Na sadly not, Argos ain't stocked them in a big radius from where i live for a long time, I don't fancy paying over the top for one, i think ebay selers are buying them up and selling them for crazy money. Been nearly two years trying to get a wheel starting trying to get the G920 in 2020, One day i will get a G923🤞
So they brung back feature from G25 ? I still wonder why it was not implemented more. If you play with G25 for example Gran Turismo 4 you will feel every bump on the road as your wheel will shake. Get high something like Cerbera Speed 16 and on N-ring it is straight up hard to drive because every time you hit bump at huge speed you feel that on wheel. I had G25 for a good while and only game that used it was GT4 from what i remember.
Just used rhe demo in best buy. As a casual who hasn't owned a wheel since ridge racer on ps1 I am amazed.
Cool how far things have progressed!

Then you need to unscrew the pedal and take out the little rubber part that actually makes the pedal so hard. Then you just use a razor or something sharp to make a big hole diagonally in that little rubber piece and voila. You break pedal doesnt feel like shit anymore.

Take the rubber stopper out and you'll enjoy a bit of progressive braking. All 3 pedals have different compression spring coil in it.
@@abuelb Agreed. I took it out a few weeks ago, now ACC is actually playable! Bought the GTEYE springs, hope it feels even better after I install.
@@sennategger Had to take it out too to play original AC. Otherwise it only goes to 30% braking at full force.
Good review, helped me make up my mind and so far the wheel feels great.
Edit: great is an understatement, it's much much better than a controller
That's great to hear, always good to hear people found my videos useful. And yeah, more immersive than a controller, that's for sure.
I’ve had this and a g27. My opinion. Worth it over a g92you had one? No. If you don’t have a wheel then yes go for it. This will be better then good for over 80% of you all out there. The g923 true force is a difference. Only if you’re into gaming heavily will you notice it. Al in all 8/10. Shifter will be good enough. If you bang gears hard get extended warranty on it 😂 9.5/10 on overall quality.
Good point. I actually saw the G920 and G29 were back to £160 on Amazon UK, that's cheap.
are the trueforce vibrations constant and annoying? can it be manually disabled?
Its basically the g29/g920 rebranded with barely any improvements at a much harsher price. I may but when the price is reasonable but right now it is definitely a no buy for me.
It's definitely a little pricier than I hoped, but perhaps as things recover it will become more reasonable.
A Tribe Called Cars yea I hope it does. I was gonna get a g29 as my first wheel but was saddened to know that it won’t be next gen compatible. I was happy to see a next gen come out. But then I saw that they hiked the price way to high (50 quid extra would have been reasonable not 100) i was saddened. However when this thing comes down in price I’ll probably buy it as it’ll be a great deal then.
It is the same "manufacture's suggested retail price" as all the Gforce wheels since they started. And it has a whole new Force Feedback system, that must work very good. Or why would all the best Sims have already implemented it?
@@Howie47 The problem is that the G29 or G920 got as low as £180-odd in the UK. The G923 is £350 in the UK at multiple retailers. Bit of a jump even if part of the problem is Corona affecting manufacturing.
@@ATribeCalledCars There is two things in marketing you need to be aware of. "Supply and demand" and "Manufacture's suggested retail". The later is usually always much higher then actual retail. But if demand goes up, then retailers keep raising the price. Hope that informs you.
Okay, so i redescovered my love for f1 and i pre-ordered the f1 2021 game, and currently i have a 15 year old or older trust predator with force feedback(more or less, its just force now, there are no drivers for the feedback so it just comes back to the neutral place) i just cant wait for my paycheck and ordering this bad boy, maybe i will upgrade later to a belt-driven simwheel, but now the logitech seems perfect
@@jerryhobknob7995 well the wheel is amazing in my opinion, but my experience with sim racing setups is limited, i've never driven belt or direct drive wheels, but this one is surprizingly quiet, it has a lot of force feedback, quick response time, and a lot of mapping that can be done because of the numerous buttons. I love it, i dont regret buying it or f1 2021, so realistic compared to f1 2020, i love both of them. I strongly recommend it if its your first ffb wheel, its really good
@@jerryhobknob7995 yes of course, you have to set it higher than f1 2020, but at 60 or 70 strenght its perfect tbh
The G923 is $80 USD more than a G29 so it's dropped quite a bit recently. I was thinking about going for a Thrustmaster T300RS GT but it's up there in price especially with a shifter.
I paid $423 for my g923 with no shifter at Best Buy returned it 2 days later after finding the the same wheel with a shifter on Amazon with the shifter for $299! Just came in and I love it
Great review, very well laid out 👍👍.. I think you have changed my mind from this to a Thrustmaster T300. Either one will be my first wheel. Is the T300 superior, being belt driven?
In theory maybe a bit but it can slip and I think the Logitech feels more enjoyable to use. Probably better to base it on which ecosystem of products you may later upgrade to and/or whichever is cheaper. Both are decent options.
i see this as a win as an xbox user because i finally get the extra buttons and shift lights
Yes you benefit more if you had the G920.
Yeah I never understood why they didn’t do that on the g920
Just woke up, nice.
A morning gift for you haha.
@@ATribeCalledCars Yeah, and weezer just dropped a new song. Today's gonna be a good day.
I have it it's fantastic with Gran Turismo seven I think I'm gonna try one of the trucking games and see if I can learn how to drive a truck because I have the gearshift as well
Definitely some great trucking games out there! Enjoy.
Hi, Emily. Can you feel the TruForce effects in GT7 & if so, how much better is it than the previous model wheel?
i've only had this one. i wish i could play GTA5 with it. gran turismo is cool. i might get the VR to go with it. @@TGUNNER777
Just buy a t300rs or CSL Elite. They offer upgrade-ability, belt drive, stronger ffb and better build quality for a slightly higher price. The only thing Logitech would baybe be its better reliability(if that carries over to the g923). The CSL will probably also have greater re-sale value.
Makes sense but in some countries the price gap is really sizable. I should do a comparison between my TS-XW and CSL Elite.
@@ATribeCalledCars Especially here down under it’s over a $200 gap between the G923 and the T300 with the G923 being $480 AUD and the T300 being over $600
Where I stay the thrustmaster is more than double the price.
It all depends on price in your area, for me the g923 is $300, t300 is $500 the csl is over $600. If people are comparing the g923 with a t300 then my choice would have to be to get the g923. I would be able to get a shifter and hand brake for less than a t300.
I had no idea you also do reviews. I was mainly watching your channel for Snowrunner - which i plan to play using this steering wheel
I do the odd one and would love to do more, especially the sim racing stuff. It is meant to be a bigger part of the channel! This review did pretty well so maybe I'm not so bad at it lol.
Thinking about making this set from Newegg my first Sim purchase.
Racing games really benefit, if you can afford it and have the space why not!
Nice review. Wish I had purchased the G29 before the Pandemic for 149 USD. Don’t really have the money for a rig yet so I will just wait for a sale. Also was hoping for more from Logitech like maybe an E Brake.
That's so cheap, not sure we'll see those prices again for a while. An e-brake would be cool, although I love the Thrustmaster one. It's just a bit expensive!
Found a new one with damaged box at large retail store for £245. I assume at this price, it would be recommended over a new g29 at 270.
Seems like a good price these days, may as well go for it over its predecessor.
My buddy never got into the sim racing so now I’m buying this set up off of him . I told him I’ll borrow it and decide if I wanna buy it or not lol
Hope you enjoy, it's a decent start in sim racing!
Only thing I hate is all the wires you haft to deal with. its 2020 make the thing wireless only wire needed is power plug
Don't remind me, I just had to rearrange all of them because I have my Xbox, PC, headphones, microphone, speakers, amp, game capture card, USB connectors, battery chargers, steering wheel and router all in the same area. Cable ties are your friend.
This! It's like playing with a SNES/Sega Genesis pad in 2020!
No way I'll buy a wheel again until they give us a product of this century and generation, not a 1994 one...
@@ravenplate4733 Exactly I sold mine soon after purchase and said forget that until wireless comes out. I am shocked wireless isn't an option in this day in age
The thing with going wireless is that yoi have to consider input lag. Though, if you're worried about input lag, you probably won't be getting these. There are better options for more serious sim racers. Most people have dedicated sim racing rigs too or rarely unplug anything. So making them wireless would be catering to a very niche market imo. Unless people are willing to pay for more, I highly doubt that they'll even consider a wireless version.
@@LeOrangePotato console controllers do not have any input leg same tech can be used inside these things. Input leg was an issue in 2005 haha. I use to have a sim setup with cockpit and vr headset. It was a total mess with 13 wires everywhere. There is no excuse for wired tech this day in age. It would raise the price of the unit maybe $17.00 if that. Input 🦵 is such an old argument jees. Here guy's buy this wired tech for your next generation console hahaha At least vr is going wireless guess they solved the input leg issue. I guess we will haft to wait for tech to advance mean while I will roll down my oled tv like wrapping paper and voice command my house to have everything ready when I get home while waiting for technology to evolve enough to get rid of input leg on my wired steering wheel. Maybe I will watch space x launch a few rockets and re land them. Hope there is no imput leg for commands sent to comand module. PS I will have nightmares about input leg now.
when u are buying a ~~cheap~~ wheel then u got 2 options
logitech wheel: takes 15 years to break
thrustmaster: you have to send it to repair the second time you boot it up
just get the csl elite
Actually the CSL Elite pedals can fail too lol. I'm lucky all three brands haven't broken on me yet.
@@ATribeCalledCars damn for real?
you are quite lucky then
This wheel is currently on offer for £249 reduced from £349, with a honey voucher code even further reduced to £225. As the full price seems to be a sticking point, i believe this at £225 is a a very tempting buy..
That's a really good price indeed, worth considering for those who want a good budget wheel.
Where is this available? That sounds great.
I moved up from a controller and bought this + the h pattern shifter for around 300€ and ive been very happy, only criticism is about the brake pedal being even too stiff honestly, the wheel is absolutely great but i dont like the clamps since they sometimes pop up
Try changing your brake pedal with the clutch pedal in settings helped me out a lot.
I've not had any issue with the clamps, but then I did end up swapping to the PlaySeat Challenge on a permanent basis. H shifter is what I need to add to my setup!
@@Jesus-qs5cl i need to change the spring inside the pedal i think
U can actually change the breaking in the hub software or in game works perfect for me I have the g920 and drive in ATS/ETS2
I just ordered g923 and h pattern shifter. E brake next. Very excite! Why? Current wheel is a PS2 Logitech dfp from 20 years ago....
I upgraded from a t80 and love it
Nice, glad you like it.
Tribe called quest
So this is G27 repackaged into G29 repackaged into whatever this is.
neandertalac it’s the G920 and some other thing mixed together
@@obtainedlight4745 yeah g920 and 29 mixed into one, plus hopefully they fixed internal design flaws. the cable that runs thru the hub from the rim to the main PCB wore through and snipped a wire, even after soldering it mashes buttons on its own
Great review thank you
With the new moza r3 bundle it's really hard to justify this anymore. I finally got a renewed g920 for Christmas after years of wanting to get my feet wet. All it took was one night of using it on forza motorsport and I'm already bitten by the bug. I'll be upgrading to the moza r5 bundle w/ 3rd pedal and h pattern shifter next year. The 920 get the job done though and gives you the experience, however you can tell where the gaps are that a DD base would fill.
I'm probably just going to save another $200 and get the Fanstec CSL Elite.
If you can afford, not a bad shout. I like my wheel a lot and you can always add bits later.
Just remember that the CSL elite wheel is 500 euros for that... a WHEEL... no pedals included, just a wheel and wheelbase (because Fanatec has interchangable wheels) but you get a wheelbase and standard steering wheel that works for pc and ps4, and you have to buy an xbox one wheel seperately if you want one.
Thank you I was on the market for one thanks also dose it feels delayed and I am assuming the paddle shifter dose not work on SnowRunner also do you have a PC
No delay in the games I played, at least not anything to worry about. No shifter support on SnowRunner because it's automatic anyway except for the ability to sneak into gears using RB or equivalent. I do have a PC too.
Thank
I’d like to know everyone’s thoughts on the TruForce feature on GT7.
For the record the unit this replaced was also $399
It got really cheap in the UK before Coronavirus, but yeah the RRP was that.
250 when I bought it new at best buy
Anyone think the G29 pedals are better with a rig though? Because you'll be able to press as hard as you want, as intended without the pedal base slipping across the floor?
If I'm correct, the reason for the progressive spring in the brake pedal this time round was due to the consumer feedback from the G29 brake rubber stop pedal. Being the pedal base slipping across floors as a result of having to involve more pressure when applying the brake, due to the rubber stop (which I think with a rig it gives a more realistic breaking experience my theory is) in the G29 model. The progressive spring with the new model just provides a lighter resistance as I can only guess statistically most users have the pedal bases on their floors which means less chance of the pedal base sliding or moving across the floor or carpet or whatever, maybe?
Therefore, as I have a rig to securely bolt the pedal base to, I propose maybe using the G29 pedal set with the G923 wheel for a more optimum experience if you have a rig ? Or do you think the progressive spring is just simply better, thoughts please?
You want brake travel, make it too tough or short and you end up with less feedback and a system more like a switch. The newer system is nicer to use and more intuitive in my opinion. It's why the T-LCM pedals are better still - precision usually wins out.
@@ATribeCalledCars Cool, I just brought the G923 so shall happily embrace the progressive spring version, in good haste kind sir as well I may add!
Although I would love the thrustmaster TG 2, but it's slightly more than double the price of the G923. But I'm just a bin man budget sim racer anyway, when compared to today's standards.
@@JONACAN Honestly, I think both wheels are on a par so you are not missing much. Some people think the Logitech feels more natural, others disagree. The main thing is whether you enjoy it right! It might be worth looking up settings to get the best from it, depending on each game. Or embrace ignorance and never concern yourself with this stuff. Although I personally think making the steering lighter is more realistic. Good luck!
@@ATribeCalledCars Logitech the best when it comes to gear drive wheels anyway, and yes I love it will be great the truforce with gt7. I've never played with a belt or direct drive ever anyway. And fir me it feels like when I'm driving my civic ep3 type R in real life. So it's awesome the Logitech experience.
Well done review, one question though, as i'm a noob in racing games... worth upgrading from Driving Force GT?
I've not used that. Depending on you, it's possible you might notice better force feedback and smoothness. But nothing too drastic I don't think.
But can it run crysis?
Yes at 700fps.
Is your channel named after A tribe called quest?
It's named after a few things.
Love the video
Thanks dude.
I loved true force.. Is a new vibration
shape
can vibrations be manualy disabled?
Deciding between g29 and g923 for my first wheel. G29 is £200 brand new and g923 is £250 brand new. Would you say the g923 is worth it at that price or should I stick with g29?
I think the revisions are probably worth it for an extra £50 as the pedals do work better and the force feedback is better although it's not a night and day difference. I guess you could save the £50 and put that towards a seat, handbrake or shifter for better bang for your buck.
The brake pedal is way to stiff cant play it without shoes and something to support the pedal box because it will slide all over the place
I was a lifelong Logitech fan and used to own a G29 (actually, 3 of them). All developed horrible faults with the geared mechanism. Decided to sell up and go for a Thrustmaster T300 with the upgraded T3-PA Pro pedals and TH-8A shifter instead. Best move I made. The 923 looks good, but I can't see me going back to Logitech...... Sorry.
The T300 is decent especially with the upgraded pedals. Most of the budget pedals are a little rubbish but you can get used to them. As for reliability, I've heard negatives for all companies. Hopefully Logitech at least tried to make amends.
@@ATribeCalledCars, I hope so. They have some good products and the actual rim quality (with the shift lights) is definitely better than the standard T300 rim.
What is the device you're using to hold the steering wheel in front of the tv?
as long as it is still gear driven - nope.
Sadly the internals are largely unchanged, yeah.
Just bought mine for 290 sterling. Yeah am happy with that, and i got the information on the TRUEFORCE feature ngl only one who actually went into it that i found. I too have assetto corsa competition
Hello, a question that wheel do you recommend for simulators to learn how to drive, example city car simulator, what would you recommend? Oh, and if it would work for other simulators and also for racing games, I guess, although I don't think I'll play, but anyway, I'm waiting for your answer.
Any driving simulator will help a little, especially those with traffic and somewhat realistic handling models. But unless you are learning auto it will help to have a gear shifter and clutch pedal.
You could get a Fanatec CSL elite for a little extra, it's much higher quality product.
It's £500 and that's just for the two-pedal basic set unfortunately. So with the equivalent even more.
@@ATribeCalledCars True, but you've so many customization options, you can keep adding to your set-up over time, the force feedback is on another level.
@@karl343 Yeah if you have more cash and know you're going to use the wheel a lot, maybe more investment is good. Although I personally think a reasonable wheel and a decent chair is a great start too. I have the CSL Elite, it's good. I'll probably do some steering wheel versus stuff soon and iRacing! Thanks for watching.
@@karl343 Is it wireless?
@@ATribeCalledCars Yes, I would like that, a G923 vs CSL Elite. I know the CSL Elite is better according to performance and such, but, is it worth the extra money?
Thank you for this video. Do you know if it works with Logitech Driving Force Shifter
? I assume it will but cannot find direct answer
If the G920 and G29 did, the G923 will. But I can ask my Logitech contact when he is back just in case.
@@ATribeCalledCars yes please. I appreciate it :) I think it will work. I am planning to buy it mainly because i dont want very expensive hardware and in my country one shop is selling them with shifter gratis but when asked if it is compatible they dont know....
It is indeed supported, had official confirmation. Enjoy.
Is there a way you can mount it on a desk... thinking about getting my first one and not sure if i need the stand
Yeah the twisty bits at the front clamp it to a surface, including a desk. Just make sure it's reasonably strong because of the rotational force of the motor.
@@ATribeCalledCars yeah. Learned that when I had my first desk it was pretty cheap and not strongly built. Kept of shaking my whole desk when turning.
@@boxxy5896 I remember my IKEA coffee table would take off, it also mangled the surface lol.
I think the burning question is, have they actually upgraded the potentiometers in the pedals that fail after a year of use? My last set I fixed three times and my current set I've had to fix once already leaving me without a clutch pedal 🤦♂️
The pedals are the same as before except for the spring. I know Fanatec has this issue too, bit annoying.
@@ATribeCalledCars no way! You would think they would have updated them seeing as so many people end up with the same issue?! Mad that it happens with fanatec too though!
You just have to clean them
@@ceementality yes but as I have said multiple times cleaning them doesn't last
I’ve left mine sitting for a year and a half, everything works like new
So if my G29 (that I paid $200 for last year) does break down, Logitech have basically taken away the only reason for me not to upgrade to a T300.
Isn't there a two year warranty? :) My G29 is 4 years old and has no issues.
I did have to spray cleaner into the pedal pots a few times for spiking.
Read reviews on the t300.
Buying a wheel soon and currently this is only 25nish pound more than a g29. I'm wondering though, can you disable trueforce? Heard it can cause numb hands with long use.
Sadly I'd get a t300, but it seems prices have dropped for Logitech because the t300 is around £380.
Depends on the in-game options, if it's there you can disable.
A very good point, dis you find out if it can be disabled manually?
@@hash-CCFF00 Yeah the games that support it allow you to disable True force. (Not many support it anyway)
@@samconroyy Thanks. So it doesnt come up on those who dont officially support it? And have you had any problems with the pedals losing sensitivity as some have mentioned?
@@hash-CCFF00 Correct, games with TrueForce have the ability to disable it, those without just have it off by default. Pedals are fine, I've seen people add stronger springs to the accelerator and clutch as they are looser. No loss in sensitivity for me though.
Would you recommend this for a person who has never had a steering wheel before? I thought about the g29 but not sure if I want it tho tbh
I would yeah, it's a great start and decently built. Good pedals and feels nice to use. Plus it seems to be cheaper these days although the G29 will do great too. If there's not much of a price difference go G923.
@@ATribeCalledCars yeah man, I've always wanted to get a steering wheel but wasn't sure about the g29 if it was compatible with the series X.
G920 sorry lmao 🤣
@@scootamayne610 G920 and G923 are both compatible with xbox series x, just remember that G923 has two models, under the same name... G923 has a playstation AND seperate xbox model under the same G923 name, they've ditched the "double digits for ps4 and triple digits for xbox" names (G920 vs G29 as example)
What is the name of the race game you are playing.?
It looks great.
iRacing on PC is in there, which time in the video do you mean?
Isn't the trueforce made for the upcoming Playstation 5 haptic feedback system?
Im intrested in building my own racing sim rig, but I am confuse on building the cockpit. So If I want to build the vertical handbrake like yours do I need to buy a clamp to attach to the rig to make it look like yours or is the rig come with one itself? Also, it seems to be possible to mix and match different brand based on looking at yours you have a thrustmaster handbrake with logitech steering wheel. What is not compatible? so is the pedal and steering wheel need the same brand, but you can run different brand on shifter and handbrake?
You don't get a clamp for a handbrake and/or shifter with the PlaySeat Challenge. I got mine from another company, might be worth watching my PlaySeat Challenge review. I believe a link is in the description of that video. As for mixing and matching, generally you can't unless you find an adapter. My wheel, pedals and shifter are all Thrustmaster. Once you know what steering wheel you want, you can the Google compatibility with the rest or tell me the other components your planning on getting.
Any advice on whether this is worth an upgrade from a g27 wheel that's about a decade old but works fairly well?
Not really, to be honest. Slow reply, sorry!
Vibratation based symphony. That phrase could have many uses.
I’m so far behind in steering wheels. I ‘only’ have the very basic Logitech one that has the lacky band thing in it, it’s rubbish, so I just use controller most of the time.
But, for me that’s ok, I race RC cars, so I’m used to that sort of interface.
RC car racing sounds cool, I watched it as a kid. And yeah it's an interesting expression...
A Tribe Called Cars there’s a few drivers you might of heard of that did some RC racing before going on to full sized cars, some of them were quite successful too. Pedro De La Rosa was good, I raced against Gordon Shedden before he got his BTCC start. And Lewis Hamilton’s first TV appearance was on Blue Peter driving RC cars. Even Ayrton Senna was into the hobby.
I think most of the folks I race with would race full sized cars if they had the budgets. And the talent 😆
But you would be surprised how in depth the setup stuff is in a car 1 10th the size of a full sized car.
Yeah my inner nerd would lose years if I bought myself one of those mini off-roaders from Tamiya. They look so cool and the videos would suit the channel, but I'm not sure how many would actually watch. Maybe one day!
A Tribe Called Cars checkout the channel Tamiya Legends on you tube. Careful you don’t get hooked though, you can lose days and days to that hobby 😃
At 1:03 the view of the wheel looks like a fennec from Rocket League
Excellent review, only if Logitech develops a vibrating pedal then I'll get one..😄
Just get a buttkicker Gamer 2. Your entire rig will vibrate including your wheel and pedals
Don't forget the vibrating gearstick too.
And a vibrating helmet

2:47 will I be able to use this for forza horizon 4 and the crew?
Yeah although Forza Horizon 4 isn't the best with a wheel. For drifting, it's fine. For racing, you'll want a high downforce car (I made a video about it, look for my Ferrari Evo XX).
The crew 2 is horrible for it. No remapping in the crew 2
@@ATribeCalledCarsdoes the rev counter in the Xbox one actually work?
@@ashton_gaming8670 Honestly, I cannot remember. Been a while!

Sounds good, I've been thinking about doing more sim racing stuff as I have so many different accessories now. Bear with me!
Is it good for drifting?
Yes it is. If you have the skills.
Does the wheel try to return to its initial position when straightening out like a real steering wheel?
Yes unless the game doesn't make it, which would be unusual.
Should I get this with the Logitech stick shift for snowrunner??
The Logitech support is okay but the stick shifter won't do much as SnowRunner is largely automatic.

What's the price difference for you? Some countries it's quite a lot.
@@ATribeCalledCars Now in Italy
the g29 is sold for 240 € and the g923 for 300 €. Is it worth choosing the g923 for the price difference?
At which price would you recommend buying? Seeing as the g29 was around 170€ before corona while on sale.
It's hard to say. The G920/G29 have crept back to £300 but rival steering wheels are more expensive too. Given the superior pedals, I'd say £250 maximum for the G923 but it could be a while before we see that, if ever.
@@ATribeCalledCars thank you! :)
Loved the video btw, answered all my questions and wasn't 20 minutes long.
Corona may be the point. It's not beyond possibility that Logitech actually release at this price because of Corona, since the G29 is price gouging at £340 on UK Amazon due to low stock.
True, I imagine this is a low-hanging fruit that wasn't much to develop internally but could help boost funds while corony is killing economies.
@@ATribeCalledCars It's straight up price gouging. They are able to capitalize on the fact that their product is in unusually high demand by re-releasing the exact same product with negligible modification at a greatly increased price. Knowing that the price of this new product will compete competitively with even used prices for the old product. Its just business at the end of the day but I'm sorry it leaves me with a bad taste. This thing probably would not even exist if not for Corona.
As i have both ps5 and Series x i am wondering if i Can use g923 pedals for ps5 with g29 so i don’t need ti change pedals each time but just the wheel?
I would assume they work as the connection is the same but I didn't try. I would search the Interwebs to check as I'm sure you're not alone in asking. Update: Logitech confirmed via Twitter that it does work.
what if the rev light only turns on when you start it up, if i play forza motorsport 7 will the rev light be there. How do i turn the rev light on
Depends on the game, if supported it should just light up.
Ps5 compatible? Should I wait and see if something better drops for that platform?
It is PS5 compatible, but perhaps other accessories will be released so maybe it's worth holding fire until closer to the console's launch.
That's what I figured, thanks for confirming.
I have G29 and disconnect on ps4 when play Grain turismo or snow Runner how to solve this problem…….
You could see if there has been a firmware update by connecting to a laptop/PC and running the relevant software (G Hub I think). Although it could be a game-specific issue so worth a Google in case.
So I have a thrustmaster t150 and it's okay, ffb is present but not informative for me and whenever I try to catch a slide quickly it loses calibration... Do you think the G923 is a clear upgrade from it? I play ACC, AC, Dirt 2.0, Project cars 2 and Gran turismo... I'm on ps4 too.
Any help is much appreciated! Great video too dude!
I think the faster response of the G923 does make it better for catching a slide. Some would disagree but I think it's a more intuitive wheel. Hard to say if you would notice a huge difference though, so maybe see if there is a shop with one to test or see if a friend has one.
@@ATribeCalledCars Cheers for your reply! Literally 10 minutes after my comment I went and bought the G923, like night and day going between the T150 and G923, can actually drift and catch slides without losing calibration! Brake pedal takes a wee while to get used to but I've no complaints with it yet 😁
What one should I buy? I have a xbox one. As I was going to purchase a g920 I see this one and now I'm not sure.
Much of a price difference where you are?
@@ATribeCalledCars 350 for the g923 but that is without the gear shifter.so in all would be £400. The g920 is £250 with the gear shifter also. But haven't tried any of them myself.
@@joebloggs7685 the g920 is great if you calibrate it properly. I can give you my calibration if you need.
So I accidentally bought my bf the PlayStation one instead of xbox one, do you think it will still work?
Sadly not, you'll have to quietly exchange it!
so im here 2023 with about a bufget of £350 should i buy a g923 with shifter and handbrake or is there other options for the same price that will give a better expirience
If you can ditch the shifter, a Fanatec CSL DD (5Nm might be in your budget, depending on where you live) will feel much nicer to steer.
@@ATribeCalledCars that wheel looks great but the lack of clutch pedal is the quite the turn off i probably should of mentioned im wanting a wheel for drifiting on gran turismo 7 and assesto corsa with the occasional gt3 racing between the g923 and g29 is the difference really worth the extra£70
@@F34R- G29 is worth going for if you save £70.
Does the wheel still make a grinding sound like the g29
I didn't notice but maybe I'm just going deaf in my old age.
How come you're lights aren't working?
Playing games before complete support was added, I think.
Will this work with xcloud on PC in the future?
Not read anything concrete yet but I would assume so.
Does the Logitech shifter work with it?
Yes.
Yes times two.
Not on the PC. Purchased a Driving Force Shifter with the G923 (after I couldn't get Windows to recognise the G27 Wheel) only to discover that Windows can't see the Shifter. Fortunately, you can make a USB Converter for the Shifter and plug directly into a USB to map.
Does both version (Xbox & PlayStation) of the g923 works with both consoles (Xbox & PS4)? Thx
They might work but you'll have the wrong buttons so stick with the platform you use most.
@@ATribeCalledCars I'm thinking about buying a series X & a PS5 down the line, so I would like to know for sure because I don't want 2 cars wheel
@@capote5000 Makes sense and a difficult choice because you have Forza and Gran Turismo on different platforms. At least many others are multi-platform.
What you think of the logitech G290 for xbox ? or what would you recommend
It's a good wheel, if substantially cheaper than the G923 it's worth it. Thrustmaster T300RS is an option but the cheapest version has two pedals that are less effective but the wheel is a bit smoother.
Anyone know what the demolition derby game is called?
Wreckfest.
Is crew comparable with the new one?
I believe so.
what happened to the LEDs at 4:37 ?
Some games don't support it. Not sure though.
How do you turn off the inbuilt speakers?
I think it's in-game, if I recall correctly.
@@ATribeCalledCars yes true
Been trying to find stock where i can get it on finance, PC/Xbox version.
Any luck?
@@ATribeCalledCars Na sadly not, Argos ain't stocked them in a big radius from where i live for a long time, I don't fancy paying over the top for one, i think ebay selers are buying them up and selling them for crazy money.
Been nearly two years trying to get a wheel starting trying to get the G920 in 2020, One day i will get a G923🤞
@@BadBoyV1 Fingers crossed, I think the global chip shortage and general scalping should be less problematic as we cruise through 2022. Good luck!
It's really good bro?
Yeah it is
Is it compatible with the shifter?
As far as I'm aware, yes. But I've not tested it personally.
So they brung back feature from G25 ? I still wonder why it was not implemented more.
If you play with G25 for example Gran Turismo 4 you will feel every bump on the road as your wheel will shake. Get high something like Cerbera Speed 16 and on N-ring it is straight up hard to drive because every time you hit bump at huge speed you feel that on wheel.
I had G25 for a good while and only game that used it was GT4 from what i remember.
