Driving simulators have come a long way since the good old days of Outrun in arcades of the 1980s, or Test Drive on the Amiga. Physics and graphics are now almost good enough to pass for the real thing, but using a handheld controller doesn’t give a true experience.
A force-feedback steering wheel does, but setting it up properly is surprisingly tricky. Desktop clamps give a curious, upright position with a poorly placed gear lever. Thankfully rigs like this are fairly cheap and compact when not in use. Driving simulation just got a little better.
