Are you still playing racing video games with a thumb stick game controller? Well, if so, you must have super dexterity with your thumb or you are just OK with less-than-ideal turns (read: you suck at the game). Me? I am the latter. That’s why I have the official Playstation Logitech steering wheel hooked up to my ancient PS3. But if I had a Xbox, I would probably not spend that kind of money.
