      All you have to do is get a cheap phone VR headset and Trinus (not lite) and after connecting the phone with usb and turning on tethering you can play pc games (that don't require hand controllers like on the vive) in vr. I play ets2 like that and it works well

      a good friend of mine has the g27 cockpit mounted, i spend at least 200 hours on it. I purchased the G29 for myself and to be honest, both of these wheels feel identical. The brake pedal is different, better on the G29 but in terms of the wheel, they are identical, i find the FFB a tad better on the G29 but that might be because the G27 is almost 3 years old. things don't last forever.
      If you have the G27, that wheel is superb

    The reason the video/greenscreen looks off is bc of 3 reasons: 1. the angle, the background was shot from a lower point than he is recording himself.
    2. The lighting isnt similar at all so you it seems off instantly bc of that and the colors dont match therefore.
    3. And prolly the biggest one: the background was shot with a different focal length.

      The problem with this question is just that: the question. Yes, this channel is supposed to be decently professional and cover new and innovative tech, but they try to inject humor into it as well, making it not just bland coverage of stuff. It's a 50/50 kind of thing. So therefore, if asked to pick which his channel is, humor or professionalism, I'm not sure which he'd pick. It's honestly a tossup because again, as stated before, it's a 50/50 thing.
      Source: I've followed Linus for quite a while and really enjoy the content him and his team produces.

    I've always been a fan of logitech, usually great bang per buck options and very rarely let me down (mice,keyboards,G27,etc.) BUT this G29 stunt is just ruthless. Treating people like they are complete idiots is not ok. The G29 should be entering the market at the exactly the same price as the G27 as it is just that. Fanatec and Thrustmaster will now completely take over the sim racing market and rightfully so. For shame logitech, for shame.

    What this does well more than anything, is its probably by far the best value wheel for the price. Sure the MSRP is $400, and at that price get a T300. But it's rare I see them anywhere near that here in the UK. Usually around £200. I paid £210 for mine with the shifter from Amazon last year, and at that price its hard to beat.The Thrustmaster T300 is a better wheel, but to get everything you get with this it works out considerably more expensive. Especially when you take in to account it comes with a set of crappy plastic pedals thet aren't a whole lot better than what Logitech were providing with the old Driving Force GT, and when you get the set with the better pedals your almost T500RS territory.
    What you get with a G29 is a solid set that allows you to experience any driving sim the way it was meant to be played, and used with a good game provides a pretty accurate experience. It's probably not for hardcore competitive sim racers, but for your average gamer who enjoys driving games you can do much worse, and probably wouldn't really notice or make use of the benefits from its more expensive rivals.

    Great vid, as always. I own a G27 (didn't have the money to go with something like Thrustmaster) and I am quite happy with it. The worst thing about it is probably the imperfection of the force feedback system. If you set it just slightly too high, it may start producing loud clanking sounds, but at lower FF settings, perfectly fine. In my opinion, G29 is quite overpriced for the list of its features.

    LinusTechTips Hey guys! You forgot (or maybe it was intentional) to mention that you still have to buy the gear shifter for the G29 as an extra accessory - whereas it came with the G27. So I feel the price is a bit too steep for what you get. I bought my G27 back in 2011 for around $300 and it still works like a dream. I've used it a ton too.

    For PC users, I would honestly stick with the G27. It is mostly, if not exactly the same, specs and is really only for next gen applications. I mean really, $400 price tag? You can get a used G27 on Craigslist, I found one new in its box, for around $150-200. Half the price for really the exact same wheel, only not compatible with XBONE and PS4. But thats really not an issue for PC gamers. Just my 2cents.

    Just to let everyone know, the screws for mounting are not, "standard."
    They are specifically: M6X1 (6mm with a thread pitch of 1)
    Luckily I had two laying around that worked when I test fitted them for my G27, but when I used a cheap desk to mount the whole unit I had to search the internet because I didn't know the name for about an hour and then go to the hardware store to pick them up. Thought I would save at least one person the trouble of searching, lol.
    Just to Review:
    I've only had my G27 for about 5 months now, however, I have put it through hell and back during racing. I'm probably one of the most aggressive people with a wheel out there, and it's held up fantastically. I surely can say that the gear mechanism isn't fantastic, but I'm so aggressive with it I can barely feel any difference to that of a real car (besides power-steering and whatever). The shifter I've noticed has become a little loose, meaning broken in, in a way, I guess? It's definitely not bad, it's pretty much a short shifter with a lot of angle. The pedals are still great. The way I have them mounted, the actual mount moves a little bit, so that sucks, but otherwise the pedals are great.
    Considering the price for this wheel and that it doesn't come with a shifter, everyone would be better off with a G27. I got mine for $200 brand new.

    The 900 degree rotation steering wheels are the best because they provide a lot of comfort and they are mechanical plus they turn 900 degrees full rotation so they can be used for simulation games like ETS2/ATS or City Driving Simulator. They are also quite pricey though but Thrustmaster also makes mechanical steering wheels with full 900 degree rotation but they are definitely much cheaper. Get the TMX or the T300RS since they are just like the Logitech steering wheels but cheaper.

    The Thrustmaster T300/TX/T500 is a better alternative to this imo. Great ffb, but if you get a T300/TX you'll want to buy the T3PA pedals because the stock ones suck, it's like they intentionally gimped them, so yeah, count the T3PA pedals as necessary

    The fact that it no longer comes with a gearstick is a big let down.
    Do not buy and just save the extra £50 and get the t500.

    It has all the feedback features but the grips are not as comfortable.
