    I don't know about that logitech one but i bit the bullet and bought the MS steering wheel. It is a lot of money but equally It's really nice. Decent build quality and the force feedback is better good. I prefer it to the control most of the time. You do need to plug it in to a power socket if you want all the rumbley waht not features but you can jsut stick in regular double A batteries or even a rechargable pack for your contoller. oh and the pedals attach to the base with a cable aswell...but it is wireless from the console

    My only reservations are a stand or decent height table to put it on would be better as it has a bit of weight to it and while it's comfortable on your lap wiht it's shape it does start to ache my legs after a bit.. looking to get a little table to put it on soon, with enough space udner for the pedals.

    i got the microsoft one for £40 from ebay my desk is perfect height for clamping the wheel to so it works pretty well.

    i use it on the power pack as i like the feedback feels a bit woft without it. sitting at the desk is not an issue as i use my 360 mostly on my pc monitor and only really plug the hdmi cable in to the telly if the missus is gonna play a game with me.

    Get the MS wheel, unless you're a complete Forza nut and can afford to shell out for the Fantec Porsche 911 wheel [Google it] (which, depending on which bits you buy with it, can be something like £250, but comes with a gear lever, clutch pedal n' everything). I *am* a Forza nut, but I couldn't justify the outlay

    Like the poster above, I picked an MS wheel up second hand off Ebay, works like a dream.
