Does Forza support 900 degree steering? No.
Does Forza hold competitions that induct drivers into REAL WORLD RACING? No.

Get a PS3, get a G25 (or the upcoming G27), and call it a day.
_And I’m not starting a debate about how Gran Turismo is the most realistic driving simulator EVER, I know there are other good simulators out there_

Actually it DOES!
FM3 supports 900\* steering, clutch, H-shifter, etc. Only with the new Fanatec wheel though.
Whatever though, even with the crap MS wheel i get dirty in FM2. haha. Can’t wait for FM3.
