So far this wheel is looking pretty good and coming out ahead of the much anticipated DRIVECLUB racing game. It looks to be a entry level wheel with its hard plastic wheel and pedals. It features linear pedals to handle gas and break with no clutch option. So no load cell  brake pedals for this one unfortunately. No word if it's belt or gear driven or 900 deg rotation in the wheel itself. Not as high end as the Thrustmaster T500,  but I don't believe it's meant to be either. 

The T80 does come with some great features though. With paddle shifters, 11 buttons catered for PS4 plus the dpad to navigate in menus. It even has the Share button to grab those awesome driving pictures or streams to Twitch or Ustream while racing. A plus is the wheel has sensitivity adjustment for a more precise driving experience. I'm hoping this is pertaining to the force feedback. Hmm I wonder how many motors it's using?  The pedals feature an adjustable angle which should be handy and the system comes with a clamping system to mount to a desk or sim rig. 

I'm excited that Thrustmaster is getting out their PS4 and XBOX ONE wheel so fast. It's great for the sim racing industry and I look forward to seeing some more high end wheels that will work with the PS4 from Thrustmaster.
