Share it on Facebook Share it on Twitter Share it on WhatsApp Share it on reddit

Milano, 20 febbraio 2008 – Logitech (SWX: LOGN) (NASDAQ: LOGI), azienda leader mondiale nello sviluppo di volanti per la simulazione di gioco, in occasione della Game Developer’s Conference (GDC) presenta Logitech Driving Force GT, il volante ufficiale della serie Gran Turismo. Con tecnologia Force Feedback e innovativo comando a 24 posizioni che regola in tempo reale reazione di frenata, trazione e damper, la nuova periferica offre agli appassionati di corse l'esperienza di guida più reale, autentica ed emozionante su PLAYSTATION3 (PS3).

“Siamo entusiasti di aver collaborato nuovamente con Polyphony Digital nella creazione di un volante all’avanguardia che può realmente soddisfare desideri ed esigenze dei videogiocatori come me”, afferma Ruben Mookerjee, Director of Product Marketing for Gaming di Logitech. “Chi ama lo straordinario realismo della serie Gran Turismo scoprirà che il nuovo volante permette di sentire davvero l'auto che si sta guidando. Grazie a Logitech Driving Force GT, non è più un gioco ma una vera e propria corsa".

Logitech Driving Force GT è stato progettato e realizzato appositamente per gli appassionati da Logitech e Polyphony Digital Inc., sviluppatore della serie Gran Turismo. Le due aziende hanno, infatti, collaborato in tutto il processo di sviluppo, integrando un esclusivo comando di regolazione in tempo reale, novità assoluta nei volanti Force Feedback, che permette di configurare con estrema accuratezza gli assetti della vettura modificando i parametri di frenata, trazione e damper. Ora i piloti di Gran Turismo possono controllare con precisione la messa a punto della propria auto e ottenere le massime prestazioni.

“I titoli della serie Gran Turismo sono progettati da sempre per offrire ai giocatori la più entusiasmante esperienza di guida. Una grafica super-realistica, un design tecnologicamente avanzato e un audio fedele per ogni vettura del gioco rendono Gran Turismo 5 Prologue un vero e proprio simulatore di guida", dichiara Kazunori Yamauchi di Polyphony Digital. “Con il nuovo volante Logitech Driving Force GT, le persone hanno a disposizione un sistema di controllo della propria macchina mai visto prima, ottenendo il massimo realismo in gara ".

Il volante Force Feedback di Logitech, con un diametro di 28cm circa, presenta un rivestimento in gomma che assicura un’impugnatura comoda e riproduce in modo accurato le caratteristiche di sottosterzo, sovrasterzo e perdita di trazione della vettura. I pedali del freno e dell'acceleratore, di dimensioni reali, assicurano il totale controllo sul gas e sulla frenata e, per scalare le marce, è possibile utilizzare la leva del cambio sequenziale oppure i pulsanti integrati nello sterzo.

Logitech Driving Force GT ha un raggio di rotazione di 900 gradi per una guida precisa e un meccanismo anti-vibrazioni che elimina qualsiasi ritardo nella risposta dello sterzo rendendo l'esperienza di guida più reattiva. Al centro del volante è posizionato il clacson, fedele al suono originale dell’auto che si sta guidando, illuminato con il logo ufficiale Gran Turismo e ideale per avvisare le altre vetture che si avvicinano velocemente oppure, come nella versione online, suonarlo per salutare i giocatori delle auto sorpassate.

Logitech Driving Force GT è stato progettato per Gran Turismo 5 Prologue per PS3, titolo disponibile su Blu-ray Disc (BD) e in versione download su PLAYSTATIONNetwork a partire dal prossimo 28 marzo in Europa. E’ compatibile con i titoli Gran Turismo3 e Gran Turismo4 per PlayStation2.

Logitech Driving Force GT sarà disponibile a partire da maggio al prezzo suggerito al pubblico di €149,99 Iva inclusa.

SAN FRANCISCO — GDC — Feb. 20, 2008 — Today at the Game Developer’s Conference (GDC), Logitech (SWX: LOGN) (NASDAQ: LOGI), the world’s leading developer of force feedback gaming wheels, announced the Logitech Driving Force GT racing wheel, the official wheel of Gran Turismo. Featuring powerful force feedback and an innovative 24-position real-time adjustment dial for on-the-fly control of brake bias, traction and damper settings, the Logitech Driving Force GT gives gamers the most accurate and authentic PLAYSTATION3 (PS3) racing experience.

“We’re excited to be working with Polyphony Digital again to deliver a wheel that will satisfy the needs of car enthusiasts, like me, around the world,” said Ruben Mookerjee, Logitech’s director of product marketing for gaming. “People who love the striking realism of the Gran Turismo racing series will discover that Logitech’s latest wheel will allow them to experience the cars the way they were meant to be driven. With the Logitech Driving Force GT, you’re not playing games anymore – you’re racing!”

Logitech’s latest racing wheel was meticulously designed by Logitech and Polyphony Digital, Inc., the developer of the Gran Turismo series. The companies worked together to add the unique real-time adjustment dial, a first for force feedback wheels, allowing people to fine tune the car’s balance by adjusting the brake bias, traction control and damper settings. Now Gran Turismo drivers can have precise control over the car’s setup to achieve maximum performance.

“The Gran Turismo series has always been designed for racing enthusiasts,” said Kazunori Yamauchi, President of Polyphony Digital. “The Driving Force GT racing wheel was designed to perfection by our team, specifically for the next generation of Gran Turismo.”

Logitech’s newest force feedback wheel simulates understeer, oversteer, and traction loss with frightening accuracy. While the full-size gas and brake pedals deliver precise throttle and brake response, racers can use either the sequential stick shift or the wheel-mounted paddles to race through gears. The wheel also features a large 27.9 cm (11-inch) wheel with rubber-overmould rim, providing exceptional comfort and control.

The Logitech Driving Force GT turns 900 degrees lock-to-lock allowing drivers to navigate hairpin turns with greater accuracy. And with anti-backlash gearing, there is no slack in the steering response, making any race a smooth, realistic experience. In the centre of the 27.9 cm (11-inch) wheel, the Driving Force GT features an illuminated horn button with the official Gran Turismo logo. Using the authentic sounds of the car being driven, racers can quickly alert other cars when they are approaching fast. Or when playing online, people can simply use the horn to taunt other players as they speed by.

The Logitech Driving Force GT wheel is engineered for use with Gran Turismo 5 Prologue on PS3, which will be available on Blu-ray Disc (BD) and as a download on the PLAYSTATIONNetwork in North America on April 17 and in Europe on March 28. The Logitech Driving Force GT wheel is also compatible with Gran Turismo3 and Gran Turismo4 on the PlayStation2 computer entertainment system.

Pricing and Availability
The Logitech Driving Force GT wheel is expected to be available in the U.S. and Europe beginning in May. The suggested retail price is $149.99 (U.S.).
