Instead of being actual levers that required a reasonably large range of movement to change gears, the shifters more closely resemble buttons. The F1-style shifters behind the wheel are different as well. You can now grab the wheel anywhere during a race without accidentally changing views, hitting the emergency break or anything else. (Where are force feedback pedals? It would be great for the brakes) The wheel is physically right about the same size as Logitech's past products, but all of the buttons are now located in the center of the wheel and along the supports rather than on the actual wheel itself. The pedals are basically the same, for better or for worse. The design of the wheel and its button layout has changed a fair bit over Logitech's past GT Force and Driving Force wheels for PS2.

It's other major upgrade lies in its force feedback strength, which not only makes cars feel heavier and more powerful but also allows for greater subtlety. The wheel's major selling point is its 900 degrees of rotation, with force feedback all the way around, for supported games. The Driving Force Pro is a force feedback steering wheel designed for PlayStation 2, but since it uses a USB connection you can hook it up to a PC and enjoy racing bliss there as well. Luckily for all GT fans the game is finally upon us which means that the Driving Force Pro can finally be paired with its soul mate.
The Driving Force Pro was originally intended to launch day and date with the game, just like the GT Force and GT3 did, but unfortunately Gran Turismo 4 was delayed for some time so Logitech finally decided to just go ahead and the wheel. Without one the other is simply incomplete, such as was the case with Gran Turismo 3: A-Spec and the Logitech GT Force. The Driving Force Pro was made for it and it for the Driving Force Pro. The Logitech Driving Force Pro has been available in stores for some time now, but we've put off reviewing the wheel until now for one very important reason: Gran Turismo 4.
