Thrustmaster Universal Challenge 5 in 1
Great for fans of the universal wheel driving simulator was developed in collaboration with Ferrari-operation. Excellent performance, very good price and the fact that work on 5 different systems to play speak enough for themselves.
Thrustmaster has excellent cooperation with Ferrari-operation we have seen in previous models, gamepad and steering wheel's, and came to us and a model that is perhaps most interesting, Universal Challenge. What is specific is that it supports as many as five different platforms (PC, PS2 and PS3 Sony console, the GameCube and Wii), so the only missing support for the Xbox, so that ultimately there really a universal solution. This wheel is definitely a great solution for those who have access to several systems to play, and they need a quality wheel that will not cost very much.

Thrustmaster Universal Challenge 5 in 1
When the extract, as we expect, obtain a separate steering wheel and pedals, with accessories for mounting and fixing the steering column to the table. The first strikes us in recognizable Ferrari logo on a yellow background, and we know that Thrustmaster has excellent cooperation with the famous automobile manufacturer. Although the real steering wheel can be used without locking the table (there are rubberized on the bottom rate), it is best when used when hooked and fixed to the table so that somewhat resembles a real steering wheel in the car. Steering wheel rim is a medium size, but without the texture rubberized so it's pretty comfortable to use, especially as a special resting place for your thumbs. Those who are used to separate transmissions will have to get used to sequentially which is modeled on one used in the Ferrari models in the form of two "blades" behind the steering wheel rim.

The steering wheel is automatically centered and has a relatively strong spring mechanism that contributes to the reality of the ride. In addition, it can be nice and set the sensitivity level of the wheel, so that each controller can adapt their driving style. At the wheel we can use an 8-way D-pad, 6 extra keys and Select, Start and Mapping, as virtually all the keys can be programmed as desired. Pedals are made of plastic and at first glance do not seem so interesting, but very precise and well defined with a lot of resistance, so that they contribute something to gain greater impression of reality when playing. What is perhaps the most important thing is that this wheel to work on 5 different gaming systems including PC (a USB connector), which may interest those who have more consoles available.
Summary
This wheel is certainly one of the better models on the market, Thrustmaster has invested a lot to gain valuable model Ferrari logo, and seems to be that successful. This wheel is really a great opportunity to reach top controller that does not cost much, that will work practically on anything other than the Xbox, and the game provides an excellent dose of reality. Hayley can someone that does not support vibration, but this is not crucial. It's nice to see that for such a good controller does not have to spend a lot of money, and that a wider range of people can enjoy driving simulations....
