Thrustmaster announces TMX Force Feedback racing wheel for Xbox One and Windows 10
Illegal street racing is totally dangerous. Quite frankly, not only can you injure or kill yourself, but even worse, you can impact innocent pedestrians. Luckily, if you have the need for speed, video games can give you your racing fix in a safe environment.
Today, Thrustmaster announces the TMX Force Feedback racing wheel for Xbox One and Windows 10 (plus Vista, 7, and 8x). For under $200, you can take your games to the next level with a feedback-focused racing wheel.
"Equipped with a high-performance force feedback motor offering adjustable intensity and a rotation angle ranging from 270° to 900°, the TMX Force Feedback delivers a realistic and versatile racing experience. The controller’s versatility benefits all players, whether beginners or seasoned pilots, with all types of tracks, cars and races", says Thrustmaster.
The company further says, "another example of this racing wheel's versatility is its force feedback motor, designed by Thrustmaster's development teams to offer performance suited to demanding players, while also remaining accessible to less experienced drivers. The motor features a mixed belt-pulley and gears system with metal ball-bearing axle. The result is a balanced combination of performance, robustness and precision. With 12-bit resolution -- i.e. 4096 values on the wheel's steering axis -- provided by an optical sensor, this racing wheel also offers extreme precision, delivering highly realistic racing sensations".
If you are interested in buying this super-cool steering wheel, you can pick it up next month for $199.99. If you want an even greater immersive experience, it is compatible with some of Thrustmaster's pedals (T3PA and T3PA-Pro) and gear shifter (TH8A) too. Keep in mind, those extra accessories are not required -- the TMX Force Feedback racing wheel can operate on its own.
