SteelSeries SRW-S1 Wheel Gives You iPad-like "Air Driving" Experience
There are PC gamers and then there are PC gamers that have driving wheels. Even those that might splurge on a gaming mouse, driving wheel and especially foot pedal controls take a lot more room and are a little like a Moped (cool but you don't want your friends to catch you riding one). They take up a lot of room and commit your multifunction PC into a big toy. Enter the SteelSeries SRW-S1 Wheel. This controller redefines "all-in-one" with the multitude of embedded controls, 4-paddle shifters and accelerometer-based 'air driving' as opposed to fixed wheel systems. The SRW-S1 is only anchored by a single USB cable and can be used and put away faster than any other driving wheel system bar-none. On the front of the wheel, you'll find almost 20 function buttons and 2 station based dials and one infinitely variable dial. A row of LEDs are also functional within certain games. The rear of the wheel has 4-paddle shifter type levers to take the place of pedals for acceleration and braking. As for software, The SteelSeries SRW-S1 works fine without software but functions best when connected to their partner gaming system Simraceway. Simraceway takes full advantage of all the features of the SRW-S1 and is an online multiplayer racing system that hopes to be the racing version of an MMORPG. The SteelSeries SRW-S1 is available for order now at $129.
