Well, does ANYTHING "work" with Windows 8 ? I haven't - and won't - use anything with Win8 on it until they get some bugs out of it. But the question actually is: "did the Microsoft programmers build the new Win8 software to work with their OWN mouse?" It would be absurd to think they didn't, but stranger things have happened at Microsoft sized companies. The most likely answer - however - is yes - with most programs and "no" with a few other older ones. "Flywheel 3.3" is a free 3rd party mouse driver that makes the wheel work with older programs in Windows 7. You may have to use it in Win8 as well. Well, does ANYTHING "work" with Windows 8 ?

All I know is that it did not work with XP or win 2000. You might get lucky but I sure hope you like to play.

No. You can play the game with a controller. You do not need a racing wheel. As far as which racing wheel you should buy, I don't really know because I don't have one. But I would assume that any racing wheel would work as long as the game supports use of that peripheral. It's a fun game so either way, I think you'll enjoy it. Have fun!

It only works with Windows Media Player. it has a small number of apps that came with it that aren't really very helpful, it looks like they went "pretty" over "Functionality" and scouring the web, pretty much all the app sites for aftermarket apps are gone now, but I DID find a program called Aida64 that can be used to create custom apps, that's all I've used since I made one for system stats. and game support for it is pretty light. google it and read the wiki on the g19 and you can see the list of games that support it. nothing terribly new so not sure if games are even trying to offer support.

The wheel turning speed is not as fast as smaller wheels. I started out with DFGT, G27, and T500. It's like a real car for me, but it depends on what you're using it for GT6 or whatever. My prim use is iracing.com . The motors is the best thing for the price range; However, you may want to get a different set of pedals, I prefer more tension. Hop my answers were helpful.

Hey Ryan, not 100% sure, but PlayStation seems to only boost all of thrustmaster's products instead of Logitech. IMOPO , I say that if you're looking into a Thrustmaster ,get an account with a racing sim such as Iracing. There is no console game out there that will bring the high dollar wheels to life. keep the ps4 for when you feel like playing, but when you want to race use your pc and thrustmaster.

I did a little research and as far as I can tell the pc version does. It also looks like you may be able to use unsupported steering wheels with some tweaking, but I haven't tried that, so I can't guarantee that it would work. Hope this helps.

Very glad to find an Indian G27 user :DFirst off, where did you get it from & which city do you live in? I live in Pune.I got mine off Amazon USA through a friend coming here for holidays.Now something to clear your doubt.The wheel doesnt respond as you said when some other USB port is engaged except for the G27 (like a pen drive or something). I had the same problem & unknowingly it got solved but later I figured out the cause through online browsing. So connect only the wheel when you play :)Hope this helps,RudraPS: I'm seriously considering to replace mine under warranty so I need to know Indian logitech outlets, so pls help if you can.

This game is a crap shoot being a bad port so many issues can arise but for my desktop it runs fine with nothing changed if you need help getting it working this might be useful http://pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Grand_Theft_Auto_IV.

Yes, it works PERFECTLY with the Playseat Evolution. (Not sure about earlier generation Playseats.)The Evo has pre-drilled holes that line up with the bottom of your G25 wheel platform and your G25 pedal platform, though you will have to offset the Evo pedal panel quite a bit to where it's strange looking but not impractical from a functional standpoint.Look into buying the additional Playseat Evo attachment for the G25 shifter. I don't think Amazon sells it ... I ended up getting that attachment from MaxWho.com.

It uses an accelerometer. It works with most PC games I have tried. It is possible to be as fast with this as it is with other more 'conventional' wheels.

could be a compatibility issue - most PC games with controller compatibility are set up to take on-brand xbox controllers, which have a particular kind of input. a lot of off-brand usb controllers have a different kind of input. since the game is set up to only recognize one kind of input, it wont recognize the off-brand controller as a controller at all. x360ce is a controller emulator program you can use to solve this problem. it switches the input so that the game recognizes the controller as a controller. i used it and it worked - you can find the program and tutorials on how to use it with google.it could also be because the controller isnt very good and just doesnt work. could be a compatibility issue - most PC games with controller compatibility are set up to take on-brand xbox controllers, which have a particular kind of input. a lot of off-brand usb controllers have a different kind of input. since the game is set up to only recognize one kind of input, it wont recognize the off-brand controller as a controller at all. x360ce is a controller emulator program you can use to solve this problem. it switches the input so that the game recognizes the controller as a controller. i used it and it worked - you can find the program and tutorials on how to use it... » Read More could be a compatibility issue - most PC games with controller compatibility are set up to take on-brand xbox controllers, which have a particular kind of input. a lot of off-brand usb controllers have a different kind of input. since the game is set up to only recognize one kind of input, it wont recognize the off-brand controller as a controller at all. x360ce is a controller emulator program you can use to solve this problem. it switches the input so that the game recognizes the controller as a controller. i used it and it worked - you can find the program and tutorials on how to use it with google.it could also be because the controller isnt very good and just doesnt work. « Show Less

Hey Tom - First of all, welcome to FSX. I am a real world pilot and use it as a training tool. I also have the G25 for my driving sim set up but do not know of a anything similar specifically for a flight sim set up. Maybe the Wheel Stand Pro could be modified? Sorry I'm no help. Good luck in your pursuit.

I would say yes, the analog sticks give you more precise movements because they are analog not just a digital on/off signal such as arrow keys, but does take some getting use to, so at first you will be worse. in my opinion, however, if you want this for racing games, I highly recommend buying a cheaper racing wheel over a gamepad, provided you can spend a little extra $$$ and space isn't a huge issue. even a cheap $50 racing wheel will be 1000 times more realistic and precise feeling than a gamepad. If you dont have much cash, maybe a cheap thrustmaster steering wheel would fit well? If you have plenty of money to blow and you are really into racing games, nothing beats a logitech G27. period. (I am currently using a microsoft sidewinder steering wheel from the early 2000's and I LOVE it, im very into racing games and wish I had money for the G27...

It works flawlessly, not considering some bugs in game itself.If dx9 problem occurs, refer to http://steamcommunity.com/app/47810/discussions/0/558751812749741621/I didn't have such problem but some does.Enjoy!
