bit-tech Shopping: Logitech Speed Force Accessory Pack

Rating: 6

Time with product: 11

Strengths: Nice construction, compatible with many Gamecube racing games.

Weaknesses: Requires Steering Column accessory (sometimes sold together or separately). The "lap rest"/stabilizer for the wheel accessory (which is included in this package) is too light to be useful.

Summary: The Logitech Speed Force Accessory Pack, when coupled with the Logitech steering wheel accessory is a fun way to play your racing games on the Gamecube. I have tested this item with F-Zero (GCN) and it performed very well. It is much more fun to work actual pedals using this accessory than it is to hold down buttons in driving games. This accessory should also work with Mario Kart Double Dash and any other racing game where the controls are compatible or the controls are customizable. This accessory can be purchased in a package with the steering wheel accessory for an acceptable price. I'm giving this product a "Satisfactory" rating because it is acceptable as a racing accessory. It is mostly plastic and I imagine more serious race simulation enthusiasts would prefer something with more realistic feel and materials. That said, this is a solid accessory and is well built and performs great.

Strengths: It adds realistic gas and brake pedals to the steering wheel.

Weaknesses: The lap add-on makes your legs sore. It is better clamped to a table.

Summary: The Logitech Speed Force Accessory Pack is a great addition to the steering wheel. The gas and brake pedal are very respondsive and realistic. It works great with the games that are designed with the Steering wheel in mind. The cord that connects the pedals to the steering wheel is long, so you can have it mounted to a table (which I perfer) or in your lap, and not have the cord stretched. All in all a great product. I am glad I decided to try it!

Strengths: As described. A must have when purchasing the speed force wheel.

Weaknesses: Slippage of pedals on floor.

Summary: Unfortunately must purchase separately from the wheel but good deals are around. Not much choice in choosing wheels for the GameCube but Logitech is a quality product.

Strengths: It's nice to have pedals.

Weaknesses: Power cord way too short.

Summary: The electrical cord should have been twice as long. Without an extension cord, we can't get very far from the TV. Also without an extension cord, sitting down at the chair to use the lap adapter is impossible.

Strengths: Enhance your speed force wheel.

Weaknesses: Need to purchase seperately from the wheel.

Summary: A "must" have for every speed force owner. Can you imagine eating a whopper in Burger King without having the fries? you will feel the same if you have a speed force without having this great accesories. If you have a speed force wheel for gamecube, just go ahead and buy this accesories for your gear. It make you able to feel like really driving a car. Besides that, it also allows you to sit on your confortable sofa and use the wheel. Overall, it is an enhancer for your speed force wheel.
