Taken from Gamespot.

Microsoft today announced the Xbox 360 Wireless Speed Wheel. The $60 controller (pictured at right) will ship to retailers in September and will be available for purchase in early October. The controller is wireless and offers "precise steering, standard controller buttons/triggers, and haptic feedback with rumble."

The controller's trigger buttons offer players control of the gas and brakes, as well as other game-specific features. Additionally, the new peripheral also has ABXY and D pad buttons that used for different controls, depending on the game.

The new controller is compatible with all Xbox 360 racing games out of the box. However, Microsoft did offer a caveat, announcing that certain games will sport only "limited functionality" with the controller.

Haha Mutants! cyclops

The limited and altogether rubbish wheel options is why I opted for PS3 over xbox360, despite being xbox original fanboy.....(I had a madcatz non FFB wheel which worked on my PC too, and rated Forza1 over the current GT releases)
