Lol. Support for 30+ wheels. Which ones are those? The ones made by the makers of Thrustmaster, and a slew of plastic crap made in China? Sorry, beautiful game but Project CARS could have addressed the supposed licensing issues with Logitech and the G series of wheels. I am not playing this game with a game pad, and I don't think the lineup of available cars is that impressive.

Sounds outstanding to me. Midnight may 12th I know what I'll be doing.

The Logitech non support is a Sony issue, nothing to do with SMS

[artgamer72]

As I understand it, Logitech was unwilling to pay a fee to SONY to "pass the security check" because they had already done so on the PS3. SMS could have worked something out, perhaps passing the cost onto customers. This was suggested in numerous discussions on the web about the G27 wheel. SMS is banking on a majority of their sales being folks who have the Thrustmaster wheel or who aren't bothered by having to use a gamepad. This issue is going to cost them a lot money, more folks will just buy the game used to compensate not having support for their wheel.

Great Track List, NOT such a great Car List (although at least they are all available to drive in Race Now mode). Still worth buying based on what I've seen. Let's just hope plenty of Car Packs are in the pipeline & reasonably priced.

The issue with Sony and logitech has nothing to do with SMS. They support a ton of wheels on pc. Sony just does not have very many wheels supported. This is not just a PS4 title.
