    Yeah, my sister is an employee for EB but due to it being so pricey, they decided not to give out a staff discount -_-
    Either way i love the wheel on PS4, bit underperforming on PS3 as its recognized as the less superior DFGT, but still does the job.

    Yeah I realised that, G29 doesn't include the shifter as standard. Oh well, at least you get good pedals inclusive. That was the major downer for me with the T300. I'd need to upgrade twice to get a full setup.

    Yeah Dick Smith had it for something like $350 with a 30% discount which dropped it to $280. Bit upset I missed that deal, but hopefully I can pick up a good deal come Christmas sales

    Strooth ! theres so much shafting going on here , it's all most a porn movie , anyway at the beginning of last year I knew I had to get a new wheel because my 3 year old G27 wasn't going to work of the PS4 . so I did my pricing and this is what I has up for .
    PS4-$450, T500rs-$500, Shifter-$250 = $1200 , and that doesn't include the games I've brought ether (3 games came with PS4) this is what I wanted and saved the cash to get it , just last week I got the 28GT leather add on ($218 and worth the cash) .
    So if you want it , you'll save the cash for it and what I have is worth every cent , but like some of you guys , my ass is still a little sore from Logitech giving it a pounding .

    For the money you've spent on that setup Juzzy Logitech could shaft you for the next 4-6 console generations if you consider that the G27 was for the PS2 and PS3.

    $90 for the shifter is a bit rich but the wheel is priced to sell.

    Yep, so $90 more for the shifter mate ($355+$90=$455) the shifter is only $80 to pick up in store anywhere. Still I paid $463 on release so its still a lil bit cheaper.
