for me now it must definetely be the rFactor game that comes with the wheel. So many mods available in the game and having a malaysian site dedicated just for it is way so AWESOME......

p/s: the game rFactor given with the G25 wheel only demo but can be activated with key bought for 39.99 dollar

edit: can even get one of the site member to create a skin just specifically for you like this example

Out of the box working, I would say Richard Burns Rally, LFS, GTR2, rFactor, Gran Turismo 5, Netkar Pro. But with little tweaking of the profile the wheel is brought to even more life.

All race sim titles are made for FFB wheels in mind, so no worries. And furthermore with a very active communities of MSR and the net there should be no worries.

For those who have difficulties grasping the term imulation and arcade, here it's an excerpt from wiki which describes the difference of the two briefly:

QUOTE
Simulation style racing games strive to convincingly replicate the handling of an automobile. They often license real cars or racing leagues, but will use fantasy cars built to resemble real ones if unable to acquire them.

Although these racing simulators are specifically built for people with a high grade of driving skill, it is not uncommon to find aids that can be enabled from the game menu. The most common aids are traction control (TC), anti-lock brakes, steering assistance, damage resistance, clutch assistance, automatic gearbox, etc. This softens the learning curve for the difficult handling characteristics of most racing cars.

Sim (simulated) racing is the collective term for computer software (i.e. a simulation game) that attempts to simulate accurately auto racing (a racing game), complete with real-world variables such as fuel usage, damage, tire wear and grip, and suspension settings. To be competitive in sim racing, a driver must understand all aspects of car handling that make real-world racing so difficult,[1] such as threshold braking, how to maintain control of a car as the tires lose traction, and how properly to enter and exit a turn without sacrificing speed. It is this level of difficulty that distinguishes sim racing from "arcade" driving games where real-world variables are taken out of the equation and the principle objective is to create a sense of speed as opposed to a sense of realism.[1]

Some of these racing simulators are customizable, as game fans have decoded the tracks, cars and executable files. Large internet communities have grown around the simulators regarded as the most realistic and many websites host internet championships.


Arcade style racing games put fun and a fast-paced experience above all else, as cars usually compete through odd ways. They often license real cars and leagues, but are equally open to more exotic settings and vehicles. Races take place on highways, windy roads or in cities; they can be multiple-lap circuits or point-to-point, with one or multiple paths (sometimes with checkpoints), or other types of competition, like demolition derby, jumping or testing driving skills. Popular arcade racers are the Daytona USA series, the Rush series, the Cruis'n Series and the classic Out Run.

Over the last three years there has been a trend of new street racing; imitating the import scene, one can tune sport compacts and sports cars and race them on the streets. The most widely known ones are the Need for Speed: Underground series, Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition, Street Racing Syndicate and Juiced.


This is a list of compatible games for Logitech G25

Sorry, this is an old setup of mine. where is the shifter? U cant see it bcos the keyboard is disrupting the view.

But my current setup is a bit different, the shifter sits just besides the wheel. See the chair, it's an old chair similar type what Iriz is using. Heel and toe is not possible with this chair. It will move a lot.

Notice the angle of the G25, it's made to nearly be as perpendicular as possible to neutral axis with only a slight degree rotation to the front if we are looking at it. Imitation of pure race car? Hmm I think so. smile.gif

finally get to see PCcrazy racing setup lol - same here my modded wheel always been almost perpendicular - open wheel racecar normally like this. and i like em very close to the driver - been wondering how to get my real car wheel to be closer as well lol

ir1z - nice multimonitor setup, add another for triple display (buy matrox tripledisplay digital!), and the notebook buy a cheap plugin to monitor the car in realtime in rfactor - http://www.pitwall-project.com/
