A Spinner and Super Sprint
« on: June 29, 2005, 11:27:12 am »
For Super Sprint, it used a 360 degree wheel.....

Can you control the game well with a spinner?

yes, spinner and 360 wheel are the same basic input.

however giving the spinner a good whip to take a tight turn isn't the same.

How bad is the controls?

Can you set the spinner sensitivity and stuff?

Could the same be said for Pole Position?  I've been thinking of an old style driving multicab, things like Pole Position 1, 2 and some stuff like Super Sprint and maybe Off Road.

I have a Tornado spinner and it controls Super Sprint extremely well.

Spinners work great, just not quite as fun as a real wheel.

I made a panel just for 360deg wheel games, IIRC there are ~35 of them (excl. clones).
