    Steering wheels better than official 360 one


    I have been bought an Xbox one for Christmas, which I am very pleased with. However, having enjoyed many hours of fun with my Official Xbox 360 wheel I find myself in a bit of a quandary. Where can I get a wheel to replace it that is just as good and I can
    still use on my lap sat on the sofa without the need for a dedicated stand or table. Any help or ideas are very welcome!

    Thanks

    :)

    Connecting multiple steering wheels

    Just wondering if anyone has recent experience connecting more than one official Microsoft steering wheel with pedals? I can only get one to connect at a time to my Xbox Slim no matter what I do. Xbox firmware issue maybe? They all connect fine until I try
    to connect more than one at a time. I can connect three standard controllers with one steering wheel but no more than one steering wheel at a time. I have three wheels. Xbox is up to date. Tried everything I can think of. Thanks for any suggestions. The steering
    wheels are this kind:

    I know you don't want a stand or table, but if you really want a good wheel, the Thrustmaster TX is great!!!

    It has force feedback, only problem I've had, is it's not great on Forza 5 (it's the game rather than the wheel) but everything else runs sweet on it.

    I got a little fold away stand to which I keep the pedals attached all the time, so all I have to do is unfold, put in one screw to clamp it upright, then 2 more screws to hold the actual wheel.

    You can also buy add ons like 4 pedals and gear stick. Or F1 type wheels to swap out the Ferrari 458 replica.

    I want to play a game on my xbox 360 with a usb steering wheel but it's not working

    Hello Joshy T, thanks for reaching out to us. I understand your frustration.

    Unfortunately, the Xbox 360 console has specific compatibility requirements for accessories like steering wheels, and not all USB steering wheels will work with it.

    Here's why your Sonic Drive steering wheel might not work:

    1.Compatibility: Xbox 360 games and the console itself only recognize officially licensed or compatible steering wheels. Third-party wheels, like Sonic Drive, might not have the necessary drivers or protocols to work with the console.

    2.Input Mapping: Even if the wheel connects, it might not translate its inputs (buttons, pedals) into game actions correctly without specific driver or software support.

    3.Button Layout Differences: The button layout on your Sonic Drive wheel might not match the standard Xbox 360 controller layout, leading to confusion and control issues.

    Here's what you can do:

    1. If your wheel has manufacturer-provided drivers or software for Xbox 360, download and install them. These might enable compatibility features.

    2.Consider Officially Licensed Wheels: Unfortunately, if none of the above work, you might need to invest in an officially licensed Xbox 360 steering wheel.

    Feel free to get in touch if there's anything else we can assist you with.
    Have a nice day,
    Adam.

    I'm a new gamer but an old dude and I need help!

    Really it's patience and time, especially if your not used to video games, it will take more than days to get used to it.

    Microsoft did release a steering wheel for dedicated racing fans which you might find preferable by now they should be pretty cheap second hand, they were much more expensive than standards controllers when the x360 was in it's prime.

    Check on ebay for official xbox 360 steering wheel but be warned as those hardware peripherals don't transfer over to the Xbox One should you decide to join the current platform, but the games will.

    steering wheel

    What steering wheel do you mean exactly?

    A lot of PC products that work with Microsoft Windows will not work with the Microsoft Xbox 360.

    Only officially licensed Xbox 360 compatible hardware works with the Xbox 360. This mainly has to do with the limited system storage space of the Xbox 360.

    On a PC you can simply install lots and lots of drivers for any hardware product you plug in. On the Xbox 360, there is only space for a selected number of hardware devices, and only the

    Xbox 360 Wireless Racing Wheel
    as well as an
    officially licensed HORI steering wheel
