DriveClub Hands-On Preview - Could it be the Racing Game to Beat This Year?

On a DualShock 4 there's a sense of weight and consequence - the front-heavy mass of an SLS AMG takes a little brute force to snap into place - but on a wheel DriveClub really shines. The all-new Thrustmaster T300 that's launching alongside the game is a revelation - though it's worth noting, especially if you're over at Microsoft, that other wheels are supported - with 720-degree rotation unlocking a gratifying amount of nuance from the vehicles. Getting the SLS's elegantly oversized front end into corners requires quick and enthusiastic hands, and when the rear finally bites back there's a real joy in palming the wheel in an act of energetic balance.
