XCM Converter Deadzone

video shows the deadzone around the 12oclock position of my pretty badly worn out G25 steering wheel with Forza Motorsport 4 on the XBox 360

for more infos about the XCM converter, please go to their website at www.xcm.cc and make sure to upgrade the firmware (if you decide to buy it)

maybe, because if I want to experience realism I drive either 1 1/2 hour north or 1 1/2 east, either to the Nürburg- or the Hockenheimring. I'm not seing the point in buying a Fanatec ONLY because of Forza when I already own another wheel. If you don't own a wheel buying a Fanatec wheel is the better option, no doubt. cheers.

it only supports rumble,its "just" a gamepad emulator.I gave it a try, whoever doesnt want to buy it doesnt has to.In some cars I'm faster using the gamepad, in others if I use the G25. And if you use a wireless headset you can also talk to your buddies,the only disatvantge in system controlling is the lack of camera control for taking pictures.everything else you can do, xbox button is working,so does the right thumb stick to cycle damage&tyre temps.you dont have a PS Button on the G25 in GT5!

Very useful clip, One question is that does it support for 900 degree rotation of g25 or no there is no way to use that feature on xbox 360?

@tobibeck80 I would jump on the Fanatec if there weren't so many reported problems with the gt2.. and i'm afraid for the csr.. people are already complaining about the cloth coming apart.. feels super plastic and cheap.. after a few days there becomes a permanent deadzone on any game and any mode.. I just know the g27 has way less issues.. and I can put a real steering wheel on it :P

@Doktamaja

If you dont have a Logitech wheel at all you should directly go with the Fanatec imo because theres already full support for FM, you dont have to buy a wired controller nor the F1 converter. XCM is currently working on an addon gear for the F1, says "clutch, sensitivity and shifter --> xcm.cc

@tobibeck80 I agree with you. I'd rather have the g27 wheel because of looks and i've also had the first 900degree wheel logitech made and it was amazing. i've seen too many people complain about the Fanatec wheels and crap costumer support. I'm in the market for a sim wheel just not sure what to get.. I prefer forza 4 over gt5, also all my friends play forza 4. justnot sure whether to take a gamble and try the fanatec csr wheel or just grab a g27 and xcm converter...what do you think?

@tobibeck80 I'm not looking to be faster but more realistic, that's why people buy the will in my opinion, maybe your different then me.

I am a huge GT5 fan but...traded it in a month ago. Forza 4 is better (and I hated Forza 3). Was heavily rooting for GT5. No Damage, bad menus, bad replays, horrible sound, minimal cockpit shake...oh and almost zero damage! How long to install and update as well. Forza 4 works perfectly and thought of everything. Even online stuff is Amazing!

Can u just turn the Force Feedback down? Don't think I can on Forza 4. It is better I heard with 2.0. I have the original wired controller from 360 a week b4 it launched in 2005 with PGR3! (great game) It has the best sound and cockpit shake of any game ever! (yes I have a skim now) Sent my original 360 RedR back, they couldn't believe the serial number. This XCM is good for people who can't afford a Fanatec.
