The company promised, "radical new car experiences, experiences that could not be delivered until now," such as being able to walk around a car and hold your hand over its parts to get a more detailed view, or literally climbing into a car and starting it up.

"Welcome to the future of racing," it concluded.

Wow, what a fantastic example of using a new market-expanding peripheral in a totally backwards unexciting way.

Having a zero-feedback steering wheel is just plain stupid for a racing game.

Let's just call it a Sports game with cars and I'm fine with that.

Eye tracking would be a major benefit, though. I really hate crashing into opponents in online races :(.
