With that in mind, what wheel would you recommend? I'd love a G25 but unless it really, really is amazing, I'd like to save some money

I bought mine 2 years ago and went for a Logitech Formula Vibration wheel that now seems to not exist according to their site
But at the time if I'd had the money I would have gone for a Logitech Momo.
Logitech definitely seem the best bet for wheels imo.

You could have mine as it's just sitting here but I'm guessing postage would be quite high as it's heavy plus the pedals :/

I've got a Momo sitting here that I got from Pikey, it's absolutely superb but I'm having problems getting it to fit to my desk as it's a very thick piece of kitchen work surface!

I'm going to replace it with a G25 providing I can confirm the clamp is big enough, assuming it is, you're welcome to the Momo.

I'm actually going through Guitar Hero 2 on Hard at the moment, but Lynne hates it so I can only really play it when she's in another room/in bed so it's fairly slow going. Got 5 stars on every song on Medium, but Hard is completely another level, adding in that 5th button really throws me at times.

I've got an old logitech formula force Ferrari jobby lying around here. The pedals died a long time ago but it's got analogue paddles you can use for throttle/brake anyway. It's been on freecycle for a week or so and the only person who showed an interest hasn't come to get it so it's yours for the cost of postage if you want it.

Davey - I've literally had one attempt at a song on medium so far and found the step up to 4 buttons a struggle. Did you use your little finger for the 4th button or were you moving your hand about? I guess for 5 buttons you're going to have to move your hand anyway so I'm leaning towards trying to learn that technique from the start.

"Weapons of mahs-destruction"

Jeez.. what was the voice actor for Prince LaCroix thinking when he came up with that pronunciation (Mass pronounced so its sounds like the southern pronunciation of Grass)

Coool! Aparently if you can play guitar it is supposed to be harder, but I find my guitar skills useful for changing buttons etc.

Have you done the Top Gear theme tune? (Jessica) It looked proper hard when Phil did it. And that was on easy :/
