Ferrari PS2 controller

Forza blatant marketing! :rollseyes:

 

WTF

 

I've seen a couple of different versions of these for sale in the Ferrari Store - Maranello. I also noticed in Italy last year that they were gifts if you collected enough points from buying Shell fuels.

 

I bought one from the same guy on ebay. They look great but I can't stand using it. There is a button on it that "slows" the game so you can do super moves. What it does is continually presses pause on and off so you can enter the super moves buttons. It gets very annoying after a while because mine comes on without pushing the "slow" button to activate it. I may just open it up and disconnect the button. You'll see what I mean when you get yours. I'm glad I only paid a few bucks for it.

 

Are there any good games for PS2 with Ferrari content?

 

355 Challange is pretty good. I love Simpson's Road Rage...no Ferraris but it is a lot of fun!

 

Oh, I didn't know they made it for the PS2. I used to play that on some other game console and of course in the arcade hall. Have to look into that. Thanks!

 

Scott's after me to buy two race simulators and new computers!!!!

Get some big flat screens.....yea, that's the ticket!

Geez, he must think I have some money or sumptin'......



I'm l,ike "What's WRONG with Windows '95?"...LOL

 

Get a cheapo LCD projector off ebay instead. Bigger picture and more fun. Good nuff for racin'.

Generally I have no urge to upgrade from Win 95. Unless the sim soft demands it. However having XP recognize automatically things like your steering wheel is nice.

 

I might be on the wrong planet here, but I bought Driver 3 today to PS2 - and ther you can pick: "Take a Ride" - and if you choose to take a ride in Nice you can take a Countach for a spin.
YES Andreas, they have a PURPLE one too.

Wrong planet. Lamboland is 5th rock from the sun.

 

Pretty cool. Do you know if they make an X-box controller like that? Would like to get one for a friend for his bday coming up.

 

MUST GET IT, MUST GET IT

 

There are three different PSII controllers and the XBOX Ferrari 360 Modena Programmable Game Pad.

 

Not to rain on your parade, but I find these game controllers absolutely horrible. Get a wheel and decent pedals, pls.

 

I think i will stick with my regualr controllers and maybe put a ferrari sticker on it lol

 

Since I bought the Williams F1 wheel and pedals, the PSII controllers have moved to "collectible" status. F355 Challenge and some of the Rally games are fun (in the winter). Waiting on Gran Turismo 4.

 

Atta boy!
I just got an Xbox for the Gotham City 2 project after I read in Forza how Ferrari's test driver helped in the representation of the Enzo in the game. Now I'm working to adding the Xbox into my PC sim setup so I can use the same steering wheel and projector setup. Maybe I'll even add a PS2 for the F355 Challenge. Nice sim: F1 from the sixties, modern F1, 355 Challenge and Enzo.

 

get your hands on the Logitec Momo Force wheel its usb so it works on pc, ps2 and xbox(with adapter)

F355 Challenge and Gran Turismo3 on the PS2 work great with the wheel. Its also good for various F1 PC sims like GP4 or F2001

I hope Forza racing is better than PGR2.... PGR2 didnt do it for me as much as F355 or Gran Turismo3

 

hehe I can beat ANYONE at Project Gotham Racing 2! Ferrari's only!

 

I'm actually using a Momo Force wheel with USB. It looks a bit different from your link as it also has a regular shifter, but anyway, it is a great wheel.

I assume the force feedback will be lost on non PC systems, right? I'm planning on using a USB switchbox for the various computers.

What is Forza Racing?

 

OK you pick which ferrari......full lap of the nurburgring.......post your best time and I'll do the same. (I'll be out of town till monday so I won't be able to race till monday night.)
