  • can i learn driving manual transmission ( basics only ) with this device and which game take full advantage from it . thanks

  • @smallville0forever you can do Gran Turismo 5 if you have ps3 Forza 4 if you have Xbox 360 or Iracing for PC out of all 3 Iracing is the most realistic one but the graphics isn't that good

  • @TheCrazy135 wait does the g27 work with xbox? i heard it doesnt????

  • @loopyboopoo1 if you use a converter it does

  • @loopyboopoo1 Nope it doesnt only the PC PS3 PS2 I know that because i have the g27 racing wheel.

  • @smallville0forever yea i think test drive 2 will be good for that on the pc  :)

  • @bjornke123456789 Ok thanks

  • @lembnau1996 but in GTA you can drive on the streets with traffic and stuff. and the driving physics arent bad either.

  • @kleinesmaenchen yes the driving physics are really bad lol every car has insane body roll

  • can you drive in GTA with this wheel?

  • Can it be played for xbox 360?

  • @iman854 ...Si

  • @iman854 No, only for PS2/PS3 and PC.

  • @iman854 Nope. The only wheels compatible with the Xbox 360 that I know of is the Official Xbox 360 Racing Wheel and the Fantec Porsche 911 GT2 wheel.

    Other than that, there's no wheels compatible with the Xbox 360.

  • @iman854 yes you can but you need a special adapter for it andits expensive

  • @iman854 no it cant

  • where do u get this music

  • @questtioner12345 Yes, with a adapter which is called XCM F-1.

  • @bonzo615 but then the the hshifter will not work

  • Comment removed

  • What table is that your using? what type is it? IIt look neat!

  • @MrCookie57 You're spending that much money on a "steering wheel" to go in a straight line...

  • @stigemann1 i think the Logitech Attack 3 Joystick, is usable for an e-brake though, but for pc i think it would be only useful, since you can assign keys for it. but it cost round 30 - 40 bucks :/

  • Comment removed

  • fucking goddamit, i wanted it , but if not with ebrake, so im not buying. i wanted to play drift games, :/

  • @RonBLW lol i dont use ebrake when i drift i use the power of the engine to get my wheels spinning and just look up logitech g27 ebrake mod

  • @stigemann1 okay :)

  • @stigemann1 e-break ??

  • Pmg i just got a coupon from logitech where i get 50% off any single product. Which means my g27 will cost me $150. Guys trust me when ever you buy a logitech product sign up to get their emails. Ive received tons of discounts on different products.

  • just ordered mine today with next day shipping, cost me $300 even basically, cant wait though!

  • das finde ich richtig gail

  • And that'll definitely get my attention, when I have a kid later on, 'll have 'em drive in this before i let em use a manual :P a real manual :P

  • Comment removed

  • 7:45

    can you like read my mind or something thats exactly what i was thinking haha

  • does the G27 comes with the black thing where u hook up the steering wheel?

    (sorry if my english is bad)

    but please reply

  • Logitech G27 £215

    Xbox 360 wheel £70

  • @LLOYD19851012 so g27>ms wheel

  • 55 people were all accident's.

  • GET TO THE BLOODY POINT MAN!

    STOP WAFFLING!

  • can u mount it on a table?

  • @TheJohncena26 Yes, the wheel and the shifter can seperately get mounted

  • the song is nice

  • Man stop babbling!

  • Intro is great, the rest is a flop..

  • dude shutn the fuck up and get to the details

  • Your intro is epic

  • thanks

  • were can i find one of these i live in akron ohio and cant find one tips please

  • They need to offer one for xbox 360 even though Im sure they make this wheel for the GT game series, which is made for the PS platforms. 360 has NFS Shift and Shift 2 which are high SIM racing games and deserve a wheel like the Longitech g27.

  • @sidewaysonhighways do you REALLY think that NFS Shift (or any NFS game) was erer a SIM Racing Game? I mean for REAL??? the only game deserves a wheel on 360 is forza...

  • @Bmwm6340 You may be a hater of NFS, but Im not referring to all of their games. Shift was a SIM game w/ some arcade. So YES REALLY, I believe that it deserves a wheel. Shift 2 unleashed as well, perhaps. I haven't played that one yet. Shift was very focused in the territory of high performance. It wasn't perfect. Loading time was quite long, and the frame rate wan't always spot on. Also the car noises weren't all that authentic. Other NFS games are arcade and do not qualify for a wheel.

  • @sidewaysonhighways i'm not a hater, i loved the series untill underground 2... most wanted was an average game for me,indeed I know many people think it's the best... then chaos... a good simulation racing game has great physics and amazing handling (especially on a steering wheel) like a real car... shift hasn't got any of them... it's a shame for the others to conclude shift or any other nfs in simulation racing games, even the first ones that were some good, fun and always good lookin games

  • @Bmwm6340 Video games that try to portray realife, tend to destort it. Racing games are no exception. For instance people who may have driven Nordschlife or Leguna Seca in a video game are taken a bit by suprise when the conditions on the real thing are not what they expected. Tuning the cars in Shift is tricky. My Sti understeers and spins out after tuning. Its not easy to master tuning. My Carrera Gt is near perfect for my taste; nimble with a bit of slip so the ass swings out a bit. lol

  • @sidewaysonhighways I know what you're trying to tell me, but that's not game's fault as you've must be crazy to think that in-game "reality" is tha same as, u know, REALITY. As for th carrera, come on! does it have, 900hp? 1000? MORE? you can't handle ANY of those "road beasts", that's why i don't call it a simulator.has a lot of way to reach it... it should stop being so much user friendly! simulator gives punishment to every mistake!

    but, anyway, that's my opinion, we are having a nice talk.

  • @sidewaysonhighways but anyway that's my opinion... we have a nice talk indeed!

  • @sidewaysonhighways You mention portraying real life, then you talk about Shift?

    Some games, or better said , simulators, portray real life perfectly as far as its possible (you cant simulate g forces or similar thing). Try iRacing for example.... its as realistic as virtual driving can be with todays technology. It simulates everything, tracks are scanned with millimeter precision...cars are modeled perfectly, it even simulates body flex in cars...you cant expect realism from NFS.

  • @derbigpr500 not really familiar with iRacing. You may know of more signifigant sim games. Shift wasn't really that intense as the ads run on about it. The effects are pretty limp wristed in shift. It has areas where it falls short.  They are always trying different things to enhance the gameplay. In retrospect, NFS games are made for really one purpose. Fun.

  • @sidewaysonhighways Then EA and me have different views on fun. For me , a game that fails at what its suppose to be good at cant be fun (shift fails at any aspect related to driving: physics, controls, car feel, etc.). To me, as a racing game, Shift is absolutely terrible and complete opposite of whats EA marketed it as. It makes me ask this question very often while playing: "Did ANYONE in EA even try this game before they released it, or did they make this so bad on purpose?".

  • @sidewaysonhighways The problem about NFS is that it sucks at basics. They focus on effects, graphics and stuff not important for racing games. In order to be great, a racing game needs 3 things: great physics engine + great controls + precise modeling of car PARTS - which is possible only if you have a proper physics engine which will be able to process an in-game car as a lot of parts being connected, rather than one lump of pixels with pre-programmed behavior, if you know what i mean.

  • @sidewaysonhighways Cars is NFS are just a bunch of pixels. The cars are pre-programmed. A car is programmed to react in a specific way when you go into a certain corner at speed of X with Y degree's of steering...etc etc. In iRacing for example, each car is MODELED extremely precisely. Its actually made of virtual mechanical parts, each of which react to other parts according to their characteristics and laws of physics. Cars react to enviroment in game, which is also precisely scanned.

  • @sidewaysonhighways Thats why when you play NFS, you feel disconnected, you dont feel what the car is doing, it feels artificial. It has crappy feedback. iRacing has absolutely amazing controls, very fast, very direct, you feel connected. Force feedback is also amazing. Its so great and so realistic that I can actually feel exactly what the car is doing even if i close my eyes when driving. You can LITERALLY feel every degree of a slide your car is doing , or every bump on the road.

  • @sidewaysonhighways If you havent played iRacing yet, and you like simulations, you dont know what you're missing out on. Its so good its hard to describe. There are a lot of simulations out there....LFS, rFactor, NetKar, GTR...etc.... but they feel like shit after you play iRacing for a while.

  • ill be your partner ;)

  • Fuck paying $300 just for a fake wheel...I rather buy a real steering wheel for my Supra

  • @169Phoenix Cause you actually have a Supra, hah RIGHT. Your proably like 5 is your watching this video, and steering wheels cost WAY more than 300 dollars.

  • @TEPerformance3 A 5 year old dont even know how to use the net dumbass,You dont know shit about steering wheel,You're just jealous that I have a Supra and u dont!!! Go play with pretend racing car

  • @169Phoenix Ok then, what year, what engine, what turbo, what intercooler and whats the injector size.

  • Comment removed

  • ware do i get one of those

  • At the right ----> here is an ad saying that the G27 is 1,999.99... WHAT?!?!

  • @realmike15 yea man its almost criminal what people are charging for these wheels ...and Logitech is part of the problem because they create the scarcity of the product and people are charging through the roof because you can't buy one from them.... when I bought my g25 I got lucky because I'm sure it was one of the last ones anywhere at local retail ...and less than 2 years later the same problem with the g27... I'd be happy to buy another g25 once this one wears out.... what gives

  • @realmike15

    Logitech makes great products no kidding... but they don't seem to give a fuck about their customers .. there is a huge demand for these wheels and they really drop the ball making way for a a lot of competitors to take the cake ...

  • ok i like how all of you know what you talking about. 1st thing from the video you dont need a cockpit.2nd Chazmatic14 this guy is a dumb ass its $300 not $1000 not $550. $300 wow i feel better talking shit haha

  • i checked amazon and other places for it and they have the stupidest prices ever($800-$900) if you go to the logitech site its $300 still pricey but i dont know whats with these other sites selling for more than the actual company

  • its not 550 momo and if u guys dont feel like paying 300$ go to fanatec get the same deal for 150$ and gues what guys its alot better cuz its fully adjustable u can adjust the turning degree nd its a very good wheel

  • its not $300, its $550

  • GAY PUT THE SHIFTER ON THE OTHERSIDE AND THE PEDALS WRONG WAY AROUND FOR ME :(

  • nice vid dude :)

    check my logitech in my room i made it

    thanks bro

  • i would better buy an old car and drive it cuz they cost the same price

  • Dude, You ain't a "man", you sound about 14!!

  • I think the reason why not that many people really buy this wheel is because its so pricey :S Im savin up for one, looks god damn sexy :D

  • @5FatMonkeys Who cares for aesthetics? I'd like to think that $500 goes into A) build quality, and B) performance and realism. Somehow I'm not so sure - Logitech looks a bit gimmicky and overpriced. Something tells me this kind of money would be better spent on a Fanatec or a Thrustmaster.

  • what song is playing?

  • Thumbs up if you guys want Logitech to come out with a new Wheel to upgrade the G27 with power to the Gearbox, where it'll be locking certain gear shifts because your not shifting right... (ie. synchronizer can't synchronize ) pretty much getting Logitech closer to the realism... lol i get that itll only be able to be done with new games and such that will have the force feedback software to support it... but I'm saying it can be done... so Logitech, DO IT!

  • @boobie284 Dont say it here but say it in the logitech website. They will hear you there.

  • @dacarfreak2000 Lmao yeah I should , but no Im getting to lazy plus i can finally get my license so y'know what my bro told me i shouldn't buy the wheel anymore and get away from the simulations and start for real... i took his word.... ill be getting my permit next week, spring break....

  • @boobie284 I got a drivers licence too but still I play this stuff just to sort of warm myself up when I go to track days. I got a Logitech G27 and a Lancer Evo 6 :)

  • @dacarfreak2000 Nice brah... but sorry dude i need the money... I think every penny counts these days... cuz well, i haven;t even started really saving for college, and my parents need all the help they can get... so haha now i need to start shifting into 6th gear here..... gotta go that final strech till life starts to actually bloom... time fo rme to enjoy adulthood LOL (jk) but yeah.... hope to own an Evo one day or a STi, i like both... idk yet we'll see what I like, in handling of course...

  • @boobie284 Ok man. Just telling you that the STI has better handling than my evo 6 in stock form.

  • @dacarfreak2000 well tbh honest, cant really take anyone's word for anything, its really dependent on driving style, because I actually saw a vid that someone likes the Evo more, since they can place it closer to their target apex and angle of attack... so haha :) anyways, gotta really be in it to actually decide, but I'll some day check it out.... :-) and see what you say is the same for meh :) thanks bro :)

  • @boobie284 and thubs up if you want to be cheap

  • @teris9696 I do xD lol

  • @boobie284 they should do it so like your clutch sometimes pops outta gear xD make your gearbox hella shitty so its realistic as hell! that would be cool to mess with

  • @WhutThePhuq Korek ka d'yan! :D

  • @boobie284 that would be extremely expensive the shifter alone will probably be easily $200+ probably $350-$400

  • @qtopthisq not that much if you think they'd mass produce that sh*t all over... i mean yeah the price will go up but not as much as You'd say...

  • @boobie284 mass produced okay not as high but i mean it is going to be pretty high and id surely buy it just that it would be really expensive for jst the shifter say $150-$200? I believe it would be higher for the fact that they would be one of the only ppl to have that (not sure if that is out correct me if im wrong please) and it wouldnt start mass produced :/ but cool idea anyway i jst ordered a G27! sending in my DFGT for $50 so take $50 off of $235 which i got the g27 :D

  • @qtopthisq lol ehh... :P in any case, people are still addicted to it, so they buy it :P and because of demand, that's where itll raise prices... you think that a motor costs 100-200$? its just the design they worked on that makes it cost more... its always the demand...

  • @boobie284 im not saying the motor im saying the finished product so add $50 for the shifter abt (maybe $40 but its priceless i got the price from ebay) so its auto $150-$200 and bump it up more jst for the exclusivity of the shifter which it is now $150-$250 probably but it would be sick

  • @qtopthisq alright well why dont they make it optional.. price goes up but I still want it....

  • @boobie284 thats not exactly predictable but if it was optional then u would know the exact price range so based on a shifter price $50 that add on could $60 $80 or $100 therefor hitting the $150 price range but the material and design to resist that movement with longevity is going to cost more so its a minimum of $110+ and i guess $170 for it

  • @boobie284 well its not as simple why dnt they make it :P i mean they should of course but there is nothing like that and the market may not be ready it as weird that may sound and its hard to explain not that i know why just there is to many factors for that reason

  • @qtopthisq I know it'll be hard to fabricate at first... bu t hey look at other inventions, at first it was hard, soon itll get easier... just another step int eh right direction :P

  • @boobie284 well this is harder lol the mechanics involved i believe would use lots of load cells? didnt look into much what the load cells but i think they adjust the resistance as if ur using a brake and ur tires lock it will get loose or something jst forcefeedback so ya that could work but that would be really expensive with load cells idk i jst want logitech to make a handbrake and this lol

  • @qtopthisq Doesn't matter... remember how vaccum tubes were? well look at processors now... they're very small now and fast too, especially efficient :D so it all begins with a step...

  • @boobie284 well im only 14 but ya i know them but dnt remember them lol and u can that tech is already here jst expensive and in the future will jst become cheaper and stronger (hopefully) but thats further away :/ G27 comes latest August 2nd!

  • @qtopthisq yeah but then again we can start now and get it cheaper later than start later and wait even longer for a cheaper price

  • @qtopthisq and what did you mean by G27 comes latest August 2nd? but idc if your an 8 year old... 14 is fine brah... I still respect you cuz your not that type of kid that runs up to youtubers comments andterrorizes it... you have good values man... keep it real... ;)

  • @boobie284 well...hahahaha everyone has terroized comments before XD anyway the G27 wheel from Logitech i ordered from amazon is being shipped and the latest it comes is August 2nd and earliest is July 29th :) thanks tho!

  • @qtopthisq :D hey dude did you know the Tigerdirect(dot)com has it for 248 now ? in US dollars... :P just saying...

  • @boobie284 amazon has it for 234

  • @jeffg24LT21 Newegg now also has it for 234, plus I got a 60$ Gift card so its a plus for me! :D lol but still not going to buy it at half price, Time for me to save and get a job for a real car... :P haha first I'll get a real car, and then wwhen I have extra money sitting around , thats not for gas, I'll buy it :P :D

    lol

  • @qtopthisq I know that cuz I really want it bu ti dont have money :(

  • @boobie284 i totally agree :D ive just ordered my g27 and is there force feedback in the clutch? when launching the car will you feeeeel when the clutch takes?

    -Norway

  • @olepotti no, not "yet" ;) lets hope they do run power to the pedals and gearbox next time, its my big hope :P

  • I think your cockpit will be too light. I mean material you use for build is very light and it will be moving while you will turn weel strongly. I think you should load it a little bit. But nice project :D

  • if you didnt waste so much time in introducing what ur gonna do every second, it wouldnt be such an annoying video

  • @LeonPowolski i think you should go with the gt3 and clubsport pedals. more features for 50 more.

  • a fanatec gt3 rs v.2 is the best wheel on the market right now.

  • @01iamaprofessional Stop saying something cheap is "the best" available. Think about ECCI and FrexGP wheels, there is no way you can even compare them with g27 and GT3 RS.

  • @lErssikeke well the best AVAILABLE to an average person. overall the fanatec gt3 is the best (cost for features, breakage, etc.)

  • can get one for 200 now lol

  • @blademanx where?

  • @TheFrostyDealer thats pounds UK money....Ebay ..I got mine there

  • Does the package come with rFactor?

  • @GentleAris a demo.

    

  • Hi :)

    just like to thank you for taking the time to show everyone the workings of the G27 racing wheel.great review very thorough it looks a great wheel for sure I have the G25 and I really like it would prefer the wheel to be quieter and smoother like the G27 but can't afford to buy it.so G25 will definitely be staying LOL!!!...I do agree with you the Logitech G25 wheel (and the G27) are brilliant wheels ...the best I reckon :)

    thank you again great review well done :) magz :)

  • how much is this?

  • @MRA0000000000Z i know :(

  • i want it!!!

  • id still prefer the G25 i mean.. DAMN that 27 wheel is ugly as shit! lol

  • Video Copilot intro deluxe! :P

  • this wheel is way overpriced

  • @Fawkes002 as always. logitech price their stuff for fortune. u can buy a brand new ps3 for that G27 ><

  • @Fawkes002 How can it be overpriced if its much better than anything you can get for similar money?

  • @Fawkes002 its actually worth the money

  • @Fawkes002 But It's fucking crazy :D:D:D

  • Is this a review of the review? Mah god, 2 minutes to get to the point.

  • how many gears does the gearing system have? is it 4 or 6?

  • @gamerdragon89 @ 5:54 on the video he says its 6 speed

  • you found that seat on the ground

  • would be nice if you ran the wires through the pipes

  • i bought one last week , great on GT 5 but on F 2010 it doesn't work pity

  • @dimmube it works with f1 2010. must be problem with your setup

  • @godanselmo i can't change it in options it stays grey maybe if i start a new career it would be tons better with the wheel

  • Why are you constandly talking about what you are gone talk about??

  • just 1 question where did u get the racing seat for your setup i want to get one

  • This wheels is great and i recommend it, but its NOT build to last. G27's and G25 have electrical shorting problems. The average lifespan is 2 years.

  • @BigRiggerJ Are there any comparable or better wheels?

  • @PossiblePoison Yes, for half the price u can get the Fanatec Carrera wheel. It is equally comparable, in some ways better, some ways not. Many fanatec wheels were better, especially there line of Turbo S wheels, that are permanently sold out for a little bit. I've had one for about 2 1/2 years, recently ordered the carrera while its still out and so cheap.

  • @BigRiggerJ mines lasted over 2 years slight problem with one wire bein bust from my doing but thats about it i can solder it fine but it still works anyway just dont plug it in while its plugged in the mains haha

  • @mopasaurus Haha, i'm very glad to hear that. Mine lasted 2 years and 6 days. And during that time my 5th gear stopped working, and no i was not slamming gears.. and my sequential wouldnt hold the gear either.. I enjoyed the wheel while it lasted but now that I am using fanatec products I will not go back to logitech unless they produce something amazing.

  • can you upload the link for the website that tells you how to build the cockpit please :) nice review

  • what happens if the car has more than 6 speeds in the game? D:

    do you use the paddle shifters then?

  • @elementwong95 most of the vehicles that use more that 6 speeds are f1 style shifting..

  • @elementwong95 yeah u do lmao serious i got a g25 which is basically the same just g27 has more butttons and don't have sequentional in the h-shifterr anymore but yeah if ur using a honda s2k that has a 7 speed on like gt5 then ur not gonna get past gear 6 unless u use the flappy panels haha

  • beast intro

  • @omrytheLaiho videocopilotDOTnet

  • @omrytheLaiho OMG Its not even his intro.Its from VIDEO COPILOT.Its just a free project for those who bought the product. If you dont belive me.See it your self.

  • @omrytheLaiho

    From videocopilot am i right?? :D

  • Your review was uninformative and wordy. Stop talking and do some reviewing!!!

  • my review of this review is: dont start the review by reviewing how you're going to review but start the review by reviewing the item you are going to review

  • Wheel stand pro

  • nice review mate, well done

  • #1 Xbox is for games #2 PC and PS3 are for simulations, so Ge a PC or a PS3 and get to actually use the good stuff.... not those cheap pieces of plastic that only has springs and axiss, here u get leather, the feel, and actualy CLUTCH! OMG! what a surprise.... and freaking response...... not just a vibrator for people who use it to jerk of.... go get a real simulation Console....

  • JUST as much as a ps3 fuck no

  • g25 is better in my opinion there pretty much identicle eccept the g25 can to sequential shifting too
