LogiTech G29 Driving Force and Shifter

[Twirlywoos]

For over two years now, the G29 has been the subject of many rumor mill sites, wondering, guessing, when finally LogiTech will replace the old outdated G27 racing wheel that used by millions of loyal racing fans around the world on their consoles and PC, and now that the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One consoles have been out for a while, the rumors of when is the G29 appearing have heated up even more.

But thanks to our valued insider news tipster, we here at MaxConsole have been informed tonight that the LogiTech G29 Driving Force is indeed real and coming very soon, infact the solid proof you need is right here pictured below in this 'approval' cert that was recently issued on May 7th, 2015 to LogiTech Far East Ltd. for the actual G29 wheel itself after it had completed the final testing.

So this is why they didn't bother making the current wheels support ps4

From the looks of it it'll be PC and PS4 only. It sucked that last generation there was not wheel that could all 3 (unless you paied through the nose) and it looks to be same here

So much want ! Nearly replaced my very old sidewinder FFB with a g27 this week . So glad I havnt and waited

oooh might be time for me to finally get my first wheel.

Bummer that the G25 and G27 have not been PS4 compatible, they are still great wheels IMHO. Probably done intentionally to get us to upgrade.
No release date on this G29 yet.

looks ugly as hell even worse than the dfgt

The PS controller shape makes it looks like a toy but I bet it will cost like £300

Looks like a bad fusion of DFGT and G27, but hopefully the performance should be good

I don't use my wheel anywhere near as much as I should. But oooh yes I do want!

Hmm, got the g27 in mint condition for 110 quid couple weeks ago on gumtree, used it loads. I will only want if it is using bands for the FFB instead of gears, still I use on PC and looks more tailored to PS4

I will probley want it for how beasty the shifter will look and they could even through a hand brake in and I'll be sold

PS3/PS4 only support?! No PC?

They have said this before for previous wheels, but then after launch there was software and drivers for PC after all.

 

[ShivP]

They will support PC, if anything that is probably their largest market

 

[Keechy]

u have to get the shifter separate that annoying

I thought the PS4 required a chip inside the wheels which was only given to Thrustmaster?
