- I recently bought the Logitech G29 racing wheel Driving Force Shifter! Let's look at it, play with it, and see if it's worth it many years after it was released!

As long as the price is right, the G29 will always be worth it. I used one for 6 years before finally upgrading to a direct drive, and I enjoyed every second of those 6 years.
I used to work at a tech store which had one as a demo and it’s still there after 4 years!
@@jamiemediauk nice. truly built like a tank
Did it make you a better driver in some way?
@@Scorpion-md8hb my irl car is slow so not sure 😂
@@Scorpion-md8hb yes. it also helps keep your reflexes and mind sharp.
I traded my old switch (never used) for one and got a shifter for 30 bucks. Playing gran turismo 7 has been and absolute BLAST with a clutch and shifter and force feedback. Turned off all assists (I've never played this way since gt1) ...I have so much control over the car now. Awesome experience. Would recommend.
That sounds like a sweet deal! I’ve yet to play GT7 but I’ve heard amazing things!
This was suprisingly good content, it was a good explination and stuff. You got yourself a like!
Thanks 🙏
only issue with this is the force feed back feel due to its mechanism. feels not that smooth but for the price compare to the Thrustmasters wheel, its so worth it.
Yeah I agree with you there. I think it’s a good starting point for people who have never used a wheel before 🤘
Bro you are so underrated keep up, nice vids. Hi from Czechia
Thank you very much!
Nice review! I'll be giving this setup a go. My new buyer's warranty is almost ending with my M2 comp, so this will give me some confidence before tearing it up IRL.
There are a few really nice M2 comp downloadable cars from AC. Very realistic as well!
Really well edited video mate. Bloody nice. Thanks for the insight. Subbed. 👍👍
Thank you! I appreciate it 😎
Dang bro! I didn’t realize you only had 400 ish subs! Your videos are crazy good quality! Nice job dude. Made the video so much more enjoyable to watch!
Thank you so much! I appreciate the kind words 😎
I'm just looking to race casually on FH5 and AC and so I bought a used setup with shifter and stand included for $200. At that price and everything included, it's worth it. I'm planning to tweak it a bit by removing the little rubber block in the brake pedal because I feel that the travel is too shallow, doing the M3 screw mod in the shifter to make it feel more tactile and less like a toy, and thinking of 3D printing the H shifter magnet mechanism and shift knob, total cost less than $20.
That sounds sick! I think I'm going to mod mine soon!
I'm also planning to play acc and fh5 but can't decide between the g29 and t300 rs. Anyone have any advice?
Have my g29 arriving in a few weeks. Got the shifter and already have a PSVR2. Without the wheel, I was already fooled into feeling like I am driving a car. So this should be pretty wild
The realism is insane tbh. When I first got it I didn't even go that fast ahaha
Im trying to get one for 200 usd including the shifte this weekend,its the latest version(white box) for ps5.
Hopefully the set is working fine with no issue upon meetup
I’m sure you’ll love it!
@@jamiemediauk im new to sim racing/racing game, and playing dirt 2.0 right now, its hard but im lovin it
Even with very old tech inside, Logitech G29/G920 is allways been one of the best start for entry-level simracing.
Point is: unless the price is getting too high, this wheel and the T248 are probably the best options untill you wanna improve your equipment and move onto DD.
Normally the G29/G920 price should go no more than 200-220€ and T248 no more than 250-260€.
Also the PXN v10 seems a good product, with a lot of functions, but it may suffer lack of support.
Sadly the G29 will go out of production soon so ppl will gonna have to make a choice between the T248, PXN v10 and the G923 (which I don't recommend because normally the price is too much high).
So, after years of simracing, yeah. I can tell that is still worth in 2023.
Agreed! Even the second hand market is really good for the Logitech and T248! I’m sure you’ll be able to still grab on in 5 years!
@@jamiemediauk yes, luckily logi have a good second hand market.
I also bought through the years a DFGT which I used to test and play on AC, DiRT Rally 1, DiRT4 and ETS2/ATS with good FFB performances.
Just ppl normally don't know or trust second hand markets, maybe because they are more comfortable with brand new products, but yes the second hand market is a really good option too.
@@orangesimdriver I’m yet to test Dirt yet but I’m very impressed with what I’ve seen so far! Would love to get my hands on a T248
@@jamiemediauk Yeah T248 seems promising.
Also the PXN v10 looks good with a lot of features that are not used for an entry level like Alcantara rim with QR, Pitch modification, 4 palette shifters behind the wheel and a logi-like shifter with switch mode.
T248 would have been great if if they just wrapped the whole wheel in leather to give it a more authentic feel.
you are a underrated youtuber
Thank you! I’m only just starting and have some big plans with this channel!
under rated boi
Thank you 🙏 😎
underrated

What do you think to introduce my 7 and a half years old son in the cars{ video games? is this a good option? and I read this is a noisy steering wheel, what is your opinion about it?
I would say this is a brilliant starter option! The wheel is a little loud on my desk when it goes full left or right but my desk is wooden so it would echo. Other than that it’s fine :)
USB problems = overloaded USB power draw. Too many high power devices plugged in. Can be an issue if you use alot of dongles and non-powered usb hubs
Im getting this cos at 15 i cant have a car so this is the next best thing
The price make it worth. In my region G29 is $300 (with shifter), G923 is $400 (pretty much same shit as G29) and Thrustmaster 300 RS GT is $500 without shifter. Add the fact that T300 RS GT is not reliable due to poor built quality while G29 is reliable and well built.
So here's the deal. I bought g29 to replace my G27 until I jump on some DD.
Geeeez! That’s expensive!! I did get a pretty good deal over here 😎 won’t be long till I get into the Moza stuff
PAUSE
Since the entry level direct drive racing wheel is now around 300$ too I think Logitech has to adjust the pricing a bit.
@@David_randomnumber Well, not here. Here Trustmaster 300 is 500$. Way above that the first DD.
@@bestopinion9257 I was refering to the Cammus C5. In Bundle with Pedals for 300$.
yes its worth same as the G920 (what i have) and the G923
Where about did you get your wheel from and how much did you get it for?
Currys PC World sale, wheel for £150 and shifter for £30
@@jamiemediauk okay great, thanks a lot!
Is it easy to calibrate g29 on a g hub app?
Yeah very simple and easy
i got a g923 for 150 so excited
Very nice!
Tbh, G29 felt like shit to me after i got the T300RS, I got both G29 and T300RS.
T300RS it's a whole new experience, much better, ffb uncomparable imo, shift knob on thrustmaster doesn't feel as good as irl because it surely doesn't have the force feedback of the gearbox/transmission, so u cant feel anything, but it's not bad.
Not to mention that the T300RS pedals feel amazing.
(Logitech could be way better with the brake pedal)
I feel like the T300RS is a good step up from the G29! If someone was trying to get into sim racing as a beginner I'd still recommend G29 as it is £100 cheaper and not too gutting if they decide it is not for them!
Yho is the g29 worth it for 270 euro, roughly 280$ brand new?
I think it is worth it defiantly! I got mine in a sale!
@@jamiemediaukHow much was it?
@@Mikzala I paid £230 ish for both in a sale
Is it good for just playing need for speed
Yes! You need to tune a few bits to get it to how you like, sensitivity etc
The g29 is the best starter wheel
Better than G923?
G29 or G923? Which one is better?
If you want to play on PS5 then G923 because G29 only supports PS4 and not PS5. If not, then G29
@@jamiemediaukso the ps5 wont read the g29 on ps5 games?
@@yousefashkanani8301 gt7 supports g29 :)
im gonna get a used tmx for like 80 euros
Bargain!
I had a g25 then i had the g29 and now i did nor simrace for over a year, So Friday i ordered a Logitech G923 because i like those wheels. I want to see differents from all those wheels, And i want to see if this new Logitech g923 is really better with the trueforce. But no doubt a G29 is perfect for racing in these times
Couldn't of said it better myself
Windows 11 compatibility?
Yes!
Windows 11 compatible ??
Yeah I use it with windows 11
@@jamiemediauk thanks a lot! Many guys say that it is not
