force feedback
howdy peeps,
im looking for a couple of games with good feedback effects(NOT rumble and shake effects) for my nephews xmas present. so far pro race driver 2 (with tweaked settings) gives good effects. whats your thoughts on flatout and cmr2005. richard burns effects are awesome but the games a little too hard(he`s only 9 !). downloaded rallisport challenge demo overnight and the effects suck big time so thats a no go. TIA Tango ps i wouldnt be seen dead playing those games myself ! (well except flatout) |

This might sound ambitious for a 9 year old but how about GTR (German
version from ebay is easy to get hold of and there's a very good mod to convert most of it to English). The advantage that GTR has is that it's not really competitive. You can come last in the races but have fun trying, and the sounds, he'd love just tearing around with the Ferraris, Lambos etc. Most of the other games you mention havce 'targets' to reach before you can progress could be very frustrating. -- Andi.

CMR2 sounds about what you want if you can get in in a bargain bin or
something. Not too hard but the FF is very immersive and impressive. Well, it and the FF got me back into simming again anyway!

(well except > flatout) > 1nsane by Codemasters? It's been a long time since I've played it so I can't recall whether the FF is what you are looking for. I'm pretty sure it isn't just BBBBZZZT-BZZZT-BZZZT or WOBBLE-WOBBLE effects though. Fun fun game though. It ought to be right up a nine year olds alley. MRSisson -- LOAD "GPL",8,1 RUN |

(well except > flatout) Both NFS Porsche 2000 and Mercedes World Racing have enjoyable FF effects, are very easy going games and can be found in the bargain bin. With MWR you can drive all over the scenery which is a lot of fun, it looks great as well. Avoid the more recent NFS games. I agree on CMR2 having nice FF as well, it's also cheap. Grand Prix Legends teaches you to drive very neatly/precisely. My wife is good at that, at a low speed (even though she doesn't play games often), I tend to drive too fast and crash :^) |

I still say the best force-feedback implementation is a tie between GPL and
Viper Racing. GPL is amazing especially since it was an afterthought add-on that came like a year after the Sim was released. The addition of force-feedback finally gave me the ability to drive it. Not well, but at least I could drive it -Larry "tango" <nigeldobcrossATclaraDOTcoDOTuk> wrote in message . 209... > howdy peeps, > im looking for a couple of games with good feedback effects(NOT rumble > and shake effects) for my nephews xmas present. so far pro race driver 2 > (with tweaked settings) gives good effects. whats your thoughts on > flatout and cmr2005. richard burns effects are awesome but the games a > little too hard(he`s only 9 !). downloaded rallisport challenge demo > overnight and the effects suck big time so thats a no go. > TIA > Tango > ps i wouldnt be seen dead playing those games myself !

hi,
well i downloaded mcrae 5 demo and that is shockingly bad,why do ppl still buy that ****e? flatout is ok but why the traction control which apparently cant be switched off in the full game? but the real suprise to me was mercedes world racing, great fun and superb ffb effects. especially liked the go anywhere aspect,if i can find it he`ll love that game,might even burn a copy for myself(shhhh!) is there any good sites concerning ffb wheels,games and tweaks? if not why not cos its a real shock to download a recent release demo like cmr5 and find that the ffb is non existent. why do the reviews in mags and game sites not mention the ffb and how it makes a average game into one worth buying. i think burns rally,gpl and the isi `sims` are the benchmark for ffb,so come on developers pull your fingers out so we can make the most of our expensive `toys` !
