Few Newb Questions Regarding Racing Sim

Hello,

Ordered a PS4; does the G27 work with it and do you think it is worth getting or would you say an even better wheel will arrive?

I would like to have three monitors running so i can have a better driving experience, is this possible with a console?

Seen the TrackIR - G27 - PlaySeats - Buttkicker Gamer - is there anything else you would recommend to make it even more realistic?

What on earth do i use to mount the three monitors and a wheel?

Thanks experts :-)

1. Don't think so, been trying to find out myself. XBone is a definate no!

2. Sure i saw a dev video on triple screen using 2 ps4, but it might of been a dream

3. pass

4. make your on desk set up or car seat, insidesimracing has some ideas

Project CARS probably.

1) No one knows at the moment, I'd imagine you have more chance of it working that on the xbox one.

2) I'd imagine it'll be possible on future releases like GT5 was but you'll probably need three PS4s

3) I'd highly recommend getting a GamePod, brilliant rig, the company are always looking for ways to improve it, you can buy addons such as Gear mount, TV mount, buttkicker mount. Worth looking at.

4) The three monitor questons I'm not sure you might have to make something custom or look at fanatecs rigs. The wheel can be mounted onto a rig with screws

.

It'll be worth watching inside sim racing as well, if you can stand how annoying Darrin Gangi can be at times.

I was under the impression Project CARS was going to be the new 'Shift' series? So not remotely sim-like.

As far as I know the wheel work on the PS4 but I haven't tried it yet.. I've got the wheel setup for GT6 atm so I'll try it on the PS4 later although I'm not sure if NFS will have wheel support anyway but I'll report back.
