Finally used a wheel and pedals.
I've been playing gt since 4 but always on a controller. motion controls and haptics on the PS5 for GT7 are great and have done well for me as a casual. I have a G29 and a shitty stand that a friend gave me years ago. I live in a small house and my PS5 is also our media center so I've kind of just had the wheel setup chilling in a corner the basement, maybe tried out once or twice. Otherwise forgotten.
Well, my wife has been out of town on a business trip since Monday so I finally brought it out and set it up in the living room. Normally I just casually play the weekly challenges and crush them on controller first try. Being new to the wheel it took me a long ass time to get the feel of it and make it through all 5 challenges. Today? I probably played another 2 hours just trying out all my cars and really getting a feel for them. I am definitely converted. Sadly I think I've gotten to the point where now I'm thinking I need an actual cockpit, better pedals, and maybe even a better wheel. I guess this is how it all starts...
