The Thrustmaster T500 RS is the perfect steering wheel with pedal set for playing Gran Turismo 5, arriving in January from Thrustmaster. We reveal the first details regarding the features and the Thrustmaster T500 RS price.
Thrustmaster T500 RS is the perfect gaming accessory for Gran Turismo 5: the steering wheel with pedal set, designed by Thrustmaster, amplifies the virtual driving experience, making it very realistic.
Thrustmaster T500 RS is a remarkable object that cannot go unnoticed: it is indeed quite heavy, from a material standpoint. The steering wheel weighs 4.6 kg while the pedal set weighs a significant 7.3 kg, with both components constructed from metal.
Economically too, the “weight” is relevant: Thrustmaster T 500 RS will cost 499 euros.
Returning to the gaming experience, the pedal set can be customized, meaning you can decide whether to use it on the floor (like a Formula 1 setup) or in a suspended position, in GT trim.
Launching on January 5, 2011, the T500 RS steering wheel will be compatible not only with the PlayStation 3 but also with other gaming consoles. Furthermore, in the near future, it will be possible to integrate an additional accessory, not included in the price at the moment: the independent shifter.
The gaming experience with Thrustmaster T500 RS is undoubtedly intense and realistic, not only due to the quality of the materials used but also because of the possible rotation: a full 1080°. Practically three complete, fluid, and smooth turns of the wheel thanks to the motorized lock. The fact that the pedal set consists of three pedals and a “rest” area for the foot further completes the real driving conditions. The brake is also equipped with a resistance system that allows you to calibrate braking as desired, as if you were actually in a car.
The T500 RS steering wheel, which immediately positioned itself as an official accessory for Gran Turismo 5, truly seems to have all the right elements to win over the most demanding gamers.
