Racing Wheels, Logitech G27

[koji]

I want a similar experience and be good at driving. 

 

Would G27 give me a similar driving experience? Would it be the same with a Manual Transmission car?

I want to be very good at driving and would like to have the natural experience.

 

Also I'm checking G29 though it'll be more expensive because the shift stick should be bought separately.

Should I get G29 over G27 with a price difference of $100 having both with shift stick?

the g27 and 9 use a gear-driven system for FFB. not as smooth as belt-driven but it gets the job done 

something like a Thrustmaster T300RS will be better.

i would look for the g27. the g29 is almost no difference. might be harder to get a g27 though since logitech abandoned it in favor of the g29

I already checked here in my country both of them are available and price difference is around $100 with both having Shift Sticks.

 

I have no idea yet about the games I should play. I just want to drive. I want the experience of driving and be good at it. I already have my driver's license but it seems I'll have to move my car purchase a bit so I want to at least continue driving even at home.

get a g27. 

 

you are aware that the majority of the games you will use to drive are probably not going to be the best way to learn... it'll teach you a thing or two, but it's not a 1:1 sort of business. with that said

 

if you want to drive check out these games

assetto corsa

rfactor 1 / 2

iRacing (subscription-based) 

automobilista 

pCARS

 

these games have reasonable wheel support + lots of adjustment settings available 

 

for consoles

GT Sport - unsure if the g27/9 will be supported 

Forza 6 (Forza 7 may come to PC via Xbox Play Anywhere) 

Driveclub

GT 5/6

 

i also recommend getting a sturdy table to mount the wheel and a decent setup to match eye level, FOV, and seating to cockpit view.

I just want to ensure that this will give me similar experience of driving a manual transmission car and its environment.

Thank you for your suggestions I'll check on them one by one.
