This is my first steering wheel, and after a lot of research into steering wheels I decided to go for the Thrustmaster T80 because it was the only wheel that I could find that I had seen being used with GTA 5 on the PS4.This wheel does work with GTA5 on PS4..!!It does however suffer from a bit of delay, but this is down to the software and not the hardware. GTA5 is not a Racing game but driving is a big part of the game, and if like me, you enjoy just driving around and admiring the view then you will find this wheel does the job.It also works with the PS3 and I have so far used it with Need for Speed Hot Pursuit and GRID Race Driver.Results vary depending on the game but again this is not down to the hardware but rather the software.The wheel has 3 sensitivity settings, which you change by holding both paddle shifters and pressing the D pad up or down. An Led light shows the setting...Orange is low...Red is Medium..Green is high.To calibrate the wheel you must hold the PS button down, plug it in, then release the PS button.You must do this if you want to use it with GTA5.It is not a force feedback back type wheel...and I have never used one so I have no idea what the difference is but this wheel has a solid feel to it, and the 'bungy cord' or whatever is inside gives it a decent amount of tension so that it feels stiff when turning and springs back to the center when let go.Currently I am using it with DriveClub on PS4 and I am loving it, it really does add an whole new dimension to the racing game genre.So much so that I am now wondering how much better a force feedback wheel is..?To sum things up, if you are looking to buy an introduction to steering wheel racing and you want to use it with GTA5 then I dont think you can go wrong.Easy to set up, but the usb cable that plugs into the console could do with being longer,I have a 5m extension and it works fine with it.I also have a usb 3.0 hub and this wheel works when plugged into it.I will probably upgrade soon to a force feedback wheel...but not because this wheel is not good, but because I have now discovered the world of Sim Racing...and from what I have read I will probably go for one that you can add a full size wheel...because this wheel is a little small for my liking...I think it is around the 10 -11inch size...but it is perfect for my kids.Only used it for a few hours so cant say anything about reliability...but I guess that it will be fine as there is not a lot inside to go wrong...unlike the force feedback types...which I read are hit and miss with their build quality.Overall I am very pleased with it and for what you get I give it 5 Stars.I did consider the Hori Apex....or the RWA Apex as it is also called as it has a Rumble function which might add to the feeling of the wheel..but could not find out if it definately worked with GTA5....Hope this review answers the questions I was asking..??

Wonderful Steering wheel, works a charm with little to no fuss on Project Cars & Drive Club.Seems to be of a decent build quality and feels good to the touch, very sturdy.Very easy to set up and as long as you calibrate it in the games menus it should perform as expected.Hand movements on the wheel match on screen movements almost perfectly apart from when the screen hands performs a 360 or 1080 spin,due to the wheel not having that feature in this model.Pedals can be adjusted to 3 different positions which was rather nifty for the price of the wheel.Only downside I had was that the pedals / plate where slippy on carpet, and when you pressed full brake the front of the plate would rise making it awkward to keep control.I advise screwing the pedals /plate to a surface via the two screw holes underneath.One quick note, although on Amazon it claims to be an official Sony PlayStation PS 4/3 steering wheel that may no longer be the case as the official claim seems to be blocked out on all documents with stickers.A great entry level steering wheel for those wanting some fun and on a budget, it will serve you well.

Good quality and well built steering wheel. Works perfectly on the PS4.Pedals are ok, just a shame there wasn't a third (clutch) pedal.However, this set up, like most other gaming wheels, really benefits from a proper stand / mount.At just under £70, this is decent value for money. To get anything better you would be looking to fork out at least twice as much, or more than 4x as much for the Thrustmaster T500 RS Force Wheel.

Price v quality, this is 5 stars easy.Plug it into Project Cars for the ultimate experience. Trust me. I was dubious about it, but after playing Project Cars there's no doubt it's as close as you can get at this price.If you're willing to pay more for force feedback then do it. But the spring mechanism is ideal, not too strong or too light and for a guy that droves professionally I can assure you this is a bargain!!

Incredible quality product for the price. well built and easy to set up. Sturdy build with rubber hand grips. works excellent with project cars, just needs a quick calibration to get going. Expected a light plastic feel for its cost but was pleasantly surprised. If you don't mind living without force feedback and just need a well for your driving games, this is the one without too much of a cost.

This is a very good quality wheel. Coming at £60, it is the cheapest wheel in the series. This would be a great addition to your ps4 and will supply you with hours of fun gameplay. It may not include some advance features like vibration, but does the job. Overall it is very good.

Enough lock to use however slight corrections are hard on the straights due to the lack of 1080 degrees of lock. 180 degrees is still a decent amount.The wheel is great for its compatibility with ps3 and ps4 which is a really handy feature and good value for money

Bought as xmas present for lad. Not my sort of thing but his review of it is good he likes playing farm sim on it. Hes a big tall lad and it doesn't look small with him using it. Not being my thing felt it was a bit pricey but he loves it so thumbs up.

Very happy with the product it works perfect for f1 2015 it could do with a headphone jack maybe something for the manufacturer to think about on a newer model one day. But apart from that it worth a buy.

This was a birthday present I bought for my 13 year old son and ever since I bought it he has never stopped using it it makes the car games for the ps4 a whole lot better

If you are thinking of getting a wheel and can afford this, I would highly recommend. I have used it with the 3 pedal set as an upgrade addition and it is fantastic!i

Excellent transaction. Many thanks. First time we've had anything like this - quite a challenge to control it adequately. But that's because we are novices!
