“Christmas is a time when Ars people get toys. January is a time when they review them.”  Thus tweeteth Deputy Editor Jon Stokes, and right he is. Under the tree this year (well, on the UPS truck) was a new steering wheel for my Xbox 360. Not just any wheel, but a (deep breath) Fanatec Porsche Turbo S steering wheel and Clubsport pedal setup, available directly from the manufacturer<\/a> for the princely sum of $499.95. Yes, that’s a lot of money, but as we’ll see, you get quite a lot in return, and you could spend quite a lot less on the standard edition and still have what’s probably the best driving wheel peripheral on the market right now. Compared to the Microsoft Wireless Racing Wheel, the Porsche-licensed peripheral is a massive leap forward for Xbox gamers, and the ability to use the rig with a PS3 and the forthcoming Gran Turismo 5 should put it high on any racing nut’s wish list.<\/p>\n
