thanks to our valued insider news tipster, we here at MaxConsole have been informed tonight that the LogiTech G29 Driving Force is indeed real and coming very soon, infact the solid proof you need is right here pictured below in this 'approval' cert that was recently issued on May 7th, 2015 to LogiTech Far East Ltd. for the actual G29 wheel itself after it had completed the final testing.

 

of course no confirmation from LogiTech yet of this news item, but the last time we leaked exclusive info that turned out to be true regarding an upcoming Logitech product complete with a video, we were quickly slapped by their nasty legal team filled with Men in Black Lawyer Suits and forced to remove the news story and video, so if that happens again you can basically know that above info is real and we will be playing Need for Speed UnderGround III (Yep, that been rumored today also to be coming now!) with our G29.

 

NEWS UPDATE: May 21st, 2015 - First Pictures of the new G29 Leaked

Thanks to our valued long-time MaxConsole member 'Blazt' we now have the very first exclusive pictures of the actual new LogiTech G29 Driving Force, and from the looks of it they are aiming for the next-gen PlayStation 4 gamers, so the Xbots might be out of luck.

 

 Time to flip my G27. Perhaps someone could look into the code of the Logitech Website see if something's there? it may be too early but oh well...

 

This looks millennia better than the G27. Instead of 6 buttons you have all of the ones that you can see there.

 

Hype.

Looks nice, but I'm into space sims already...

 

Also those blue buttons kinda stand out too much, I'd rather they were black/grey.

Any unknown button should be pressed even number of times.

I'd be interested in the FFB motor specs if possible. I currently have a T500 which is heavily modified and with a custom rim attached. But Logitech always rocks the price/performance ratio so even though I won't be buying, I'm really looking forward to this. The more the simracers the better for the community!

 

I should start a LTT SimRacing club thread one day... Better add my gear to my sig too. :)

Looks kinda fugly imo, I'll probably stick with my G27 until it breaks (which isn't too far considering mine has a ton of wear and tear after 6 months)...

Guess it's a good thing that no one is interested in buying my G27. At this rate I'll never sell it so I won't have to buy this ugly fucking thing.

i doubt there are many of us on this forum. it might just end with a war between the fans of assetto corsa, rfactor and iracing.

Really, this would be awesome, if it cost under 250. My current wheel is like the Africa of all steering wheels. Cheaply made, very limited features, and doesn't even feature 360 degree rotation.

a wheel that bad would actually for once be worse then a controller.

I agree, I've been wanting to get a FFB wheel for a long time but didn't want to spend much.

Please do! I love simracing, and i want legit people who care to play with(I.e. Don't cut in front and cause a huge crash at the beginning of every stinking race lol)

I hope Logitech would still sell the G27, because aesthetically the G27 is better. For sim racers sure but for those who want to use it for like Eurotruck it seems out of place.

Idk about that. I haven't been able to find money for a wheel ever since I got into simracing so I've been using an iPad with the really old MungoGamer app for years. The app doesn't exist anymore sadly but it works and let's me be more smooth and precise than a controller would. The iPad does get heavy after an hour or two though:/ but I guess I could use the arm workout lol

There's no FFB, and plus, the pedals have no feel. They feel super mushy, like instant noodles soaked in water for a month. And plus, it's hard to tell the difference between gas and brake, brake pedal has no feel.

What do you say guys? Should we start an unofficial club here on LTT? :) It can be awesome or awful but no harm in trying, right?

Sure, and by sim racing club, just racing, or normal sims like ETS or even Street Legal Racing, Redline?

I just want it below cheap, like under 100 bucks cheap. I'm desperate to replace this piece of fucking shit they call a steering wheel.
