We tested the Xbox 360 MC2 Racing Wheel with every car-racing title currently available for the 360, and results were mixed, to say the least. Our PC did recognize the wheel when it was connected, but there was no software available to get the wheel working. ![]() It's also worth noting that, although the wheel connects to the system via USB, you can't use it to play driving games on your PC. Overall, the design is sturdy but hardly stylish-the faux-dashboard stickers give off a bit of a Power Wheels vibe. That said, thanks to a healthy supply of small rubber grips on the bottom of their base, you don't have to worry about the pedals moving around while you're driving-so long as you place them on a smooth floor surface. While the second option is comfortable and more secure than sticking the wheel to a table, we found it difficult to access the pedals properly with the wheel binding our thighs together. The wheel can be tethered to a table via suction cups or left on the player's lap with retractable leg supports. ![]() ![]() The brake and gas pedals are analog, so the deeper they're pushed, the faster the rate of acceleration. While the Xbox 360 has amassed a stellar slate of racing games in short order, there's currently only one steering-wheel accessory available for the console, MadCatz's Xbox 360 MC2 Racing Wheel, a two-piece wheel-and-pedal set that retails for around $70.
