Howdy, first time here.

For years just had a PS, played games like GT and Driver 2 non stop with wheel, car seat and tv in right position(wore out many wheels and foot pedals!) Anyway looking at getting a Xbox or PS2, know pople who have both but only play car games with a pad, no good for me!

I prefer realistic games, even i just drive around for hours as in driver 2, not action get points and in race upgrades etc, although games like vice city look good. I know each person has a differant view on things but you get the gist of what im into, also F1 and Touring cars etc.

IS there any games for the X box that would suit me, even up and coming would be fine!

Finnaly if so, what wheel and pedals are good? strong and responsive, not toy like if you know what i mean.

Oh i have BY broadband, do i just need that £40 pack or other stuff?
thanks for any help

Don't know about pedals, but the Xbox has a huge range of good driving games, from the arcade Rallisport Challenge, through to realistic games like Sega GT 2002. Going via:

Toca Race driver - Xbox has the best version. More polished graphics and sound, plus 6 extra cars on the track.

Project Gotham Racing - A top driving. Not just races, but other challenges such as fastest lap, overtaking a set number of cars, and haveing to drive stylishly through cone gates etc - A top game, and my favourite.

Racing Evoluzione - Brings a big of Business Management to the driving gnere, with you controlling the design house and choosing car designs, which you then have to race.

Colin McRae 3 - A top notch Rally sim, no doubt you've played the others in the series already.
