Although this looks really realistic and accurate as well as fun to use, I won't buy it. I can see the prices be extortionate and well over the top. It would be great fun to use when playing racing games though.

This looks so sick! Mixed in with the graphics it's gonna feel so real!

Ahh the good old racing set. I remember having one back on the PS1/PS2, they were great fun. Nowadays I prefer using a regular controller opposed to a steering wheel set. The set s shown look unbelievable, they genuinely look as though they were pulled out from a car. Whilst they're fun to use, I still won't be getting one, especially considering the quality of them and the fact they're for the Xbox One, meaning the prices will be someone ridiculous.

Falsified Woah! That looks beyond amazing! I'm definitely picking up Forza now!

Forza would sell me if it had 10 cars.

Same with me. Even if it was 10 terrible cars.

Woobie Might have to pick that up for Forza, looks amazing.

This is what I was thinking.
Forza would be so fun while using these instead of using the normal controller.
