They are very similar in feel to the EX.
My biggest issue with them is that they don't have the 900 degree steering.

They only officially support it for the PS2/PS3.
It shows up as a Driving Force Pro in the Logitech Profiling Software, and has its has adjustments for the 900 degree steering, etc...
--- Quote ---The G25 is way too expensive so with that one out of the equation, which one would you select (assuming you didnt already have the G25)?

I would get the Driving Force Pro, if you can afford that.
Not hitting the end of the wheel's travel, is worth the extra money by itself to me.

So, your last sentence there is a little hard to follow. Could you eloborate a little?
So then does this wheel connect to the PC via USB? If not how do you connect it?
Sorry for being so inquisitive but I am looking to pull the trigger on one as soon as I find a decent deal on E-bay.
Thanks

They don't have any technical support available for those wanting to use the DFP on a PC.
They did include drivers/pictures, specifically for the DFP, in their PC profiling software.
As long as you don't run into any problems in compatibility with your specific hardware it will work great.
And the wheel does hook up via USB.
That's why I have the EX versions as well.
The DFP won't show up in older Playstation games, so you have to use the EX connected to the Playstation controller port on the PS2.
The EX version has both USB and PS-port connectors.

I decided to go with a 270 wheel rather than a 360 wheel because, while there are some really great games in MAME that use a 360 wheel, they pale in comparison to modern PC racing games. So if I can only do one or the other, I opted for the modern games over the classics.
