I want to compliment you on your reviews. You are enjoyable to listen to (no droning, nasally, squeaky voice) and your reviews sound very genuine. I like how you show the pros and cons of what you are reviewing, and avoid too may superlatives or criticisms. I also like how you don't dismiss, but rather mention with a grain of salt, complaints that some people have made against it, taking into account personal preferences and odd one-off issues some people complain about. Keep up the good work, and thanks for taking the time to make these informative videos.

i've had my driving force gt since 2008 and it's still going strong, never been disappointed in it, it's only a little louder than brand new.

I've owned 3 DFGT's and 1 G27. The potentiometers in the DFGT tend to go after about 40, 000 laps. The G27 is bulletproof. But you're review was accurate, and I'd still recommend the DFGT to anyone. Potentiometer replacement isn't that hard, and its only a problem for people who race thousands of hours, or those who let crumbs and debris fall into the space around the pedal housing. The pedal housing around the G27 is more secured.

You're on beat with the music lmao

My driving force GT is coming in 2 days - so excited!

I have owned the DFGT since 2014 and had the following problems relatively soon. Since I only play siquential gear, I had the problem that the right gear lever sometimes didn't work, the right gear lever sometimes shifts two gears up and the left two gears down. The left cross on the steering soon knocked out and worked imprecisely. The vehicles had a flicker on the brake lights, the accelerator pedal got stuck on full throttle.

Thanks for the review! I have no interest in drifting, so I got the DFGT and I have to say it's amazing! (I tested the G27 and a friend's house and at least for track racing the difference was minimal)

[ivanjack]

let me tell you about DFGT! i have one of those, i use it every day and i have it since 2017 . I modded the pedals to be inverted and the brake now has a big spring and feels almost real. I olso made a sequential metal shifter instead of that little joke that comes with haha and i can say it runs very good, never lost its center or had any problems with it. i bought a thrusmaster t300 alcantara last year and that was a big disappointment because the wheel didn't go all the way to 1080 degrees, i returned it and never bought another. I'll stick to this one until i make a direct drive wheel myself. Now for those who own it and want to upgrade to g27, g29, just don't!! all of logitech's wheels have the same gear shit system so it's not such a good improvement. The only wheel i would Buy is Fanatec, but i cant afford one now so ... I keep learning how to build one instead.

I definitely heard "porn shops" at 7:42

I adapted the G29 pedals on my DFGT, the experience has changed a lot. for the best of course! As I play more formula games, I am very satisfied with it.

[karliskrisbergs]

i love how you said that there is a slight noise difference but when you showed the comparison one sounded like a bulldozer where as the other like a respectable modern car

I used a driving force GT for years. I recently sold it because it doesn't support PS4 ☹️

Anyway I bought a G29 and shifter for €220. I don't know what I was expecting but the difference between the g29 and DFGT is minimum. I feel a bit disappointed as I was expecting more of an upgrade. Sure it's more premium and the pedals are better, but the feedback is practically identical.

When I originally bought the DFGT it blew me away. The G29 is not having that effect on me.

[Minalover]

Thank you for the informative video. Now I know what to do. Driving Force for me!!! Thanks, again.

just picked up a logitech driving force gt today for 3$ dollars at the goodwill and it works great!! pedals power supply and wheel

[AleshRock]

Man... In 2021, your video help me take an decision. Thanx from Brazil.

[lemonlimestiv]

I found a dfgt at a thrift store for $15.00!

[republicofcasuals]

Dropped into a Salvo 2nd hand shop the other day looking for random stuff that pops up on their shelves and saw a Driving Force GT box with a $18 sticker on it. Took a gamble as the dude said if it didn't work i could return it within 7 days. Got home and opened it up and as far as i can see it hasn't got a scratch on it and looks new, even had a 4k HDMI cable with it (no idea why but i'll take it lol). Now after a little configuration i have spent the last 3 days cruising around in GTAV with music cranking just driving around re exploring everything with a steering wheel in first person mode. Just getting out on that highway and putting pedal to the metal weaving thru traffic is so fun and i even don't mind the slower pace in the city obeying road rules and traffic flow. 😀

Watching your videos is a pleasure. You made it very professionally.

[TuxMcBea]

Good review dude, thanks for that.
I've never used the DFGT so the sound comparison was quite an eye opener for me. As you say though, when you have the game sound cranked up, you don't really notice the noise. However, I quite often drive late when everyone is in bed, so the GT may have been an issue for me had I gone that route.
