Need for Speed Racing Games

both keyboard and gamepad

however, when I go keyboard I HAVE to turn on most assists... well at least Steering to low... else, it's nearly impossible to drive

Microsoft Sidewinder Force Feedback 2

I've used this joystick in every NFS title since HP2. It feels solid, comfortable, and takes up very little room. I also have a MOMO (red housing), and a G25, but the joystick is my favorite.

Wheel, the G25

For Shift, i use a Logitech Cordless Rumblepad 2.

I wouldn't use keyboard for Shift, it doesn't work very well, and wheels are usually too expensive for my liking.

I now use a G25 and there's no going back. A friend had bought me a Genius Speedwheel 3MT a couple years ago and that was my first wheel. Ever since then I had my eye on the G25 and when I saw it for 150$ on sale I grabbed it. Now I could never play a driving game without it. It really is worth the money if you can save to get it.

Same here. No wheel comes close to it, not eaven the G27 (couse it doesn't have H shifter, and I personally think the wheel itself looks more like a toy then the G25).
For me, the posibility to be able to simulate the gearbox and rotation in degrees of the wheel of any car in sims and games is most important. Sure it costs a bit but if you are into driving sims then there is no real rival, except for the Fanatec Porsche Wheel. Now go out there and buy one, lol
