Heck, they should be able to tell you about their products in the first place.

Problem Solved. Saitek R440 FF Wheel & Pedals New in box $30.00

They have 3 of them on a bottom shelf.

If I didn't have a G25 I'd by one for me.

From what I can tell it's actually PC gear, but might work just as well on PS3. A lot of the FF stuff does.

This wheel is purely PC. The earlier posted PS3 wheel was by box PS3.

Got a better wheel for a better price by accident.

Better than handing over a gift-certificate for a bookstore, I'm sure.

Hello.

Effectively, there is no difference between a PS3 USB Wheel/Pedals and the same designed/marketed for a PC. The same is true for Joysticks, keyboards, mice and other PNP peripherals.

For a set to be PS3 compatible, it means that it has no additional or 3rd party drivers, so it is true Plug N Play.

If they work on the PS3 then they will work on a PC, providing the software supports it.

Do you have a make or model number you can link us to? We might be able to confirm it 100%. I would be wary of unbranded PS3 peripherals. If they are worth it, the company will be traceable and have support documentation.
