When I use to race with the DSC my thumb actually felt like it was dead, no feelin in it as long as I continued on a heavy racin schedule.

The DFP wheel gives a racer the feel of a real car goin into and out of turns, the control ya have compared to a DSC is amazin and like Drafter says, the pedals are vert responsive, plus they're alot better then havin numb thumbs
Yeah, it probably does depend on what game you are playing. With some games the wheel seems to work better than others. Like in NT2004 and NASCAR '05, I thought the DFP was way too sensitive on the straights, but it felt really good in the corners.

Then I guess there are arcade games like Burnout 3 where the DS would still be better. Overall though, I give the wheel 2 thumbs up (thumbs that aren't sore, lol).
