The Thrustmater T80 Racing Wheel is the first racing wheel officially licensed by Sony Computer Entertainment America (SCEA) and it is also PlayStation 3 (PS3) compatible. A racing wheel designed by Thrustmaster has two purposes – to enable users to experience sensations that are even more realistic than with a controller and to provide them with a device that will hone their racing performance. The T80 Racing Wheel fully coincides with this approach. Designed for the PS4 system and compatible with the PS3 system the T80 Racing Wheel offers Plug & Play connectivity with the next-gen console, and provides specific features such as official “Share”, “Options” and “PS” buttons, directly accessible on the racing wheel. In addition, Thrustmaster’s considerable experience with the PS3 system ensures the same high level of gameplay with this system.

The T80 Racing Wheel combines great comfort with comprehensive equipment. The device’s 25 cm/12 inch diameter wheel and rubber-textured cladding offer superior grip – a feature that all players will enjoy during long racing sessions. The racing wheel is also equipped with 11 action buttons, a D-pad, wheel-mounted sequential paddle shifters and a large pedal set with adjustable pedals.

Adjustable wheel sensitivity – (4 included presets) ensuring more precise driving in all games. The T80 Racing Wheel’s adjustable sensitivity ensures a more precise control, whatever the user’s driving style may be.

Worth it for casual driving fans. Some of the other reviews I think have failed to understand that the sensitivity on the wheel can be turned up by holding both shifters and pressing the d-pad up at the same time (I wouldn’t have known either if I hadn’t gotten frustrated and read the manual online). If the light is red, that’s low sensitivity, which is the default setting and which I’ve found to be pretty useless on most games. HOWEVER, the orange (medium) and green (high) settings are much more playable. I leave it on high for pretty much every game.
This is a great wheel to get if you are just getting in … This is a great wheel to get if you are just getting in to racing games on console.
Mounting challenged… You do get what you pay for. But it’s good for my young kids as far as control goes… Mounting it is an impossibility unless you have a perfectly flat desk or table without any fascia or trim. Now I have to go buy a flat top desk that is heavy enough to counter the forces put upon the controller.
