4.0 out of 5 stars Saitek Instrument Guage, March 4, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Pro Flight Instrument Panel (Personal Computers)
I have purchased three of the Saitek Panel Guages. All of the devices work well and are in sync with MS FSX. They are somewhat CPU intensive, so one needs lots of CPU speed and memory. Their number one benefit is that they free the user to use the entre gaming screen for scenery. The gauges improve the feeling of realism considerably. Last point, they seem to be happiest using a single dedicated USB port.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is a great addition to a flight sim, December 11, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)

*****

UPDATE 11/29/12

I just bought one again. [sigh]

Officially, the driver/software from their website (update - the UK site only) has all 12 of the instruments shown. Unofficially there are many more on other websites. Enough different ones to make me buy one again, anyway.

Do a search for ""Pro Flight Instrument Panel " downloads". Particularly check out "simviation" and "fsxtimes" dot coms.

They're not the most economical way to get a separate, external, instrument panel, but I do like them more than a little.

If they'd just dropped the price a lot I'd put on a gorilla suit and jump up and down on the street corners waving a Saitek sign.

PS - Aside from using "G.A. Panel" you could also use a program called "Panel Builder" to create your own instrument panel on another monitor. BOTH have good and not so good points. The main "not so good" point is that both are for general aviation planes, not jets... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Awesome...but no better than instrument only view in FSX, September 5, 2009

This review is from: Pro Flight Instrument Panel (Personal Computers)
I have the yoke and 3 lever throttle, the rudder pedals and 3 of the saitek Flight instrument panels and the Pro Flight Switch Panel. They work GREAT!

They are HIGHLY recommended.

I only have 2 complaints..sometimes all the panels don't get started at the same time (probably due to the USB power requirement) so I have to unplug them and replug them...but it's usually just 1 of the 6 devices.....mostly the yoke itself.

The other complaint is that there is no HSI option on the flight instrument panel...maybe in a driver upgrade.

These change the usablity of FSX from tedious to truly enjoyable!

This review is from: Gears of War 3 Limited Edition (Video Game)
I came into this game thinking, ok its Gears, its alright Gears 2 is like an 8/10 for me, but once I played this game, I was instantly blown away! The campaign is just flawless amazing story the character development is amazing and I actually get into their personalities. Horde, don't get me started please! It is amazing, building trip wire and making turrets it is just an amazing addition and I love it!! Mulitplayer I thought would suck, but I was dumbfounded when I played, it is fun and balanced and a huge step from Gears 2. If you are on the fence, buy the game I guarantee you WILL no regret it. One con is this might be the last one =,(

This review is from: Gears of War 3 Limited Edition (Video Game)
Best game ever, at least in my opinion, it has humor, action and also a bit of bleakness. Loved the first two, and this one blows them out of the water. If you're looking for a great game to submerse yourself in, pick this one up, it has great campaign and the multiplayer is insanely fun. Paid $80 for the limited edition and I believe its worth every penny. Buy it, play it, enjoy it!!!!

Amazing is all i have to say about this, i got the limited edition and it feels like it is worth well more than what i paid, the whole packaging is a hard rubbery plastic, the extras are great quality and all in all it is one of the few Limited editions of any game that left me saying "Im glad i bought that"

This review is from: Thrustmaster Ferrari GT Experience Racing Wheel for PS3 and PC (Video Game)
This is a great wheel for the ps3. I have burnout paradise, blur, split second, need for speed shift, and motorstorm. It works great with all of them. It has a feature to where you can map any of the buttons to different buttons. The gas pedal is automatically mapped to the R2 button as the brake button is automatically mapped to the L2 button by default. It has different sensitivity settings and a great feel as well as button placement. I also have the logitech gt wheel which is also a great wheel but I find myself using this wheel more. Mainly because it works on all racing games, the gt wheel only works with some games. It doesn't have force feedback which is the only real drawback I have to say about this wheel. I bought this wheel before I bought the gt wheel and I'm glad I did. I have never had any problems with this wheel so far, just make sure you plug it in before you turn on your ps3 with the wheel switched to the ps3 instead of pc. With that said I have plugged it in after... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Best value if you are a casual racing game fan, January 17, 2011
= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Thrustmaster Ferrari GT Experience Racing Wheel for PS3 and PC (Video Game)
If you are dedicated fan of racing games, and specialize in driving in them exclusively, the Ferrari Experience Racing Wheel is the wrong product for you, and you probably know that already. For an average gamer like me, who occasionally dabbles in racing games, the hundreds of dollars needed to get some of that gear is an overkill. I still like to have better control than a standard dualshock gamepad, and amazingly, this racing wheel provides it for the about same price. The wheel itself is solidly built of sturdy plastic, and very well laid out with the paddle up/down shifters and all the action buttons. With the strong clamp, mounting this wheel sturdily should be no problem at all. You can however forget about playing it in your lap, the tension of the bugee mechanism makes that impossible. The wheel is a bit on the small side, and the bungee cord tension mechanism is stiff, but the steering control provided by it far surpasses the dualshock thumbsticks. The pedals are very... Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars Not bad. But it depends on the game., December 28, 2010
= Fun:2.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Thrustmaster Ferrari GT Experience Racing Wheel for PS3 and PC (Video Game)
I should start by saying that this was the first steering wheel I've purchased for my PS3. So I can't compare it to others.

I played "Dirt" and was right away disappointed by the large amount of steering I had to do for the small amount of turning the car in the game would do. So I immediately put it in the higher sensitivity mode. This was better, but still not great. For instance I would turn the wheel 1/2 of the range to the left, but the car would only very slightly turn. Not much more turning of the wheel would result in the car making the maximum turn. So basically the range wasn't consistent.

Then I threw on "Motorstorm". The performance was MUCH better. The range of steering was right in line with the steering range of the vehicle on the screen.

One note: I had to restart my PS3 in order for the peddles to be detected. For some reason when I plugged it into the PS3 after it was already booted it detected the steering wheel, but not the... Read more
