I feel the neeeed, the neeeed for speeed!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ever since I began playing video games I've loved racing games!! I'm not so much a fan of the simulator type games like Gran Turismo, I'm more of arcade type game like Need for Speed. For literally decades I've been playing on consoles with controller and the only time we got to enjoy the actual feel of driving with a steering wheel and pedals was if you went to an arcade..yes an arcade in a mall haha which I don't think they even have anymore. Upon taking this out of the box this thing is beautiful! Although plastic (I'd have liked it to be wrapped in something like a real steering wheel), magnetic paddle shifters that made the shifting realistic and responsive, all of the buttons are conveniently spaced on the front of the steering wheel. One of my favorite things is the LED rev limiter which shows you when to shift right on the wheel as you see it in the game. The gas and brake pedal feel somewhat realistic giving some resistance but not too much or too little. I do feel they are a little small and close together if you have bigger feet like myself. Everything is simple plug and play to setup with only three plugs and you're up and running. Mounting it on your desk is quick and simple. If you decide to use it on pc, installing the software on pc it gives you a lot more options to setup just what fits your racing style. Once in game and wheel in your hand you can feel the track as you go over rumble strips or bumps, the force feedback makes you feel even more immersed into the game. One of the best racing experiences now over using a controller for so long. For the price you're getting the best bang for your buck! I'd highly recommend it to others

Good for an entry-level wheel for the kids
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Thrustmaster T128 is a great entry-level force feedback steering wheel for the price, especially if you are looking at purchasing a setup for the kids in your household. The build feels fairly solid for the wheel itself but the pedals a little bit on the light side. Buttons are nice and clicky, the paddles have positive engagement and the force feedback felt stronger than I was expecting for the price. I've tried other budget wheels where the feedback felt more like a bashful suggestion than and actual forceful movement. I was able to differentiate different driving surfaces while racing but there isn't much nuance. It more of a paved, off-road, or slippery feeling. The pedals work just fine but for my size 12 they are a little too close to each other. There are also no carpet spikes so they do slide easily but do OK on tile. The reason I see this more as a kids/young adult wheel is really just down to the size. The small wheel and close pedals were no problem for the kids in the house and the force feedback was more than enough to move the wheel while they gripped tightly. Setup was fairly quick and I do like the fact that it uses a standard detachable usb-c cable instead of a proprietary or hardwired cable like many other wheels. For the price I feel like you get a pretty good value.

Entry level wheel, entry level price
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Racing games have always been my chosen genre of video game, but I always felt like I was missing something before I started using a racing wheel to play them. While it’s not likely that anyone will mistake this for a high-end unit, I do think that it targets the person looking to add an exceptional amount of realism to their gaming at an attractive price. This Thrustmaster wheel does just that. Many entry-level racing wheels are not going to come with the same features that this wheel has, namely: Force-feedback, rev-counter LEDs, and magnetic paddle shifters; all which Thrustmaster has provided in this package. While the wheel itself is small and is just plastic (not leather-wrapped), it is packed with mappable buttons and even contains a red stripe to indicate when the wheel is centered (like a race car would have). I’ve only tried this wheel with a few PC games so far, but it has certainly improved the gameplay in all of them. In Forza Motorsport 7, the added realism using this wheel made the game more fun and easier to play, as finer levels of wheel and throttle/brake response can be applied using a wheel, especially a wheel with 900* of rotation like this has. I’ve logged the most amount of gameplay on American Truck Simulator, where I can now (more) easily control the vehicles and have mapped buttons at my fingertips so that I don’t have to take my eyes off the road. Overall, this is a fantastic entry-level wheel and pedal combo set. Sure, more features and better quality can be gotten for slightly more money, but for those looking to add realism and playability to their gaming, this unit fits the bill quite nicely.

Step up your game with style!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.this steering wheel and pedals set will really upgrade your gaming fun! The force feedback makes the steering wheel sort of fight against your inputs like a real car steering wheel would do so you can really feel how hard you're pushing your car. Another nice thing with this wheel vs. using a controller is that you can make small adjustments to keep your car centered on the track, or quick corrections when you feel the back end of the car step out on you. There is no way to ever be that precise with a controller, or even a mouse and keyboard if you're one of those players. All of the buttons are nicely laid out around various places on the wheel itself, making gear shifts, camera movements, e brake slides, all easily achievable. The buttons and controls are configurable so you can set them how you want, and the settings can be saved so you can swap them from game to game easily. I liked that even on an older title like Dirt, that the wheel popped right up in the settings and I didn't have to fiddle or download extra drivers etc.. The only issue I had with my steering set up is the pedals and their platform are slightly smallish, but they work just fine, and the clamp design that holds the wheel in place is a little to small to hold it in place on thicker tables. The torque that the force feedback motor kicks out is so strong, that if you drive as poorly as I do, it shakes and kicks so much it ends up coming loose off my table.

Good entry wheel and pedals
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Thrustmaster t128 is a good entry point to get into racing sims. The setup is fairly simple on xbox or pc (this particular model will not work on ps4/5.) You need to mount the steering wheel to your desk which is easy enough with the self grip included. Then connect the pedals to the wheel and run power to an outlet and a usb connection to your pc or xbox depending on the system you are playing on. Note if you are on PC there is an mandatory driver install you must get off their website to make it work. The wheel feels good I tested it with Forza 5 and was happy with the controls and pedals. I wish the pedals were made of metal instead of plastic, but for the price point you can hardly complain. Everything felt responsive, I haven't seen any connection drops or non responsiveness from either the wheel or the pedals. I like how I can bounce between PC and xbox with the same set of hardware that's a nice feature that it's not locked into one or the other. Don't be alarmed if when you power on the wheel it starts spinning by itself this a self calibration feature that all racing wheels do. Overall happy with the set and I'll be zooming around the streets in forza in a much more realistic way rather than holding onto a controller in my hands.

Great wheel for the casual gamer
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This wheel is great for casual racing gamers. I played Forza Horizon 5 and F1 2022 with no apparent issues. The build quality is good for entry-level, and the pedals are sturdy and should be able to last quite a while. The wheel and button layout are great and the “handbrake” buttons are convenient for drifting. The shift lights are also a nice addition helping to keep your eyes on the action while in a race. The steering input and force feedback is great and the pedals are smooth with good tension and range of motion. The paddle shifters were very responsive. The wheel connects to your pc or Xbox Series X/S with ease. The quick clamp makes the connection to a desk or table quick and easy. Like most wheels, the cords could be a little short depending on your roo. The game support is promising at launch and should only get better over time. Connecting to the PC was simple and updating the firmware was easy. I would recommend this to anyone who likes racing games and wants the additional immersion of racing.
