Grip on the wheel.
Real Life or Simulators.
Where we place our hands on the wheel of our real life car is vitally important!
Simulation games are fun and relaxing to play, and often a good tool to learn concepts and gain experience ready for doing the real thing. They can be used with just a keyboard or a games controller, but to get real immersion you need to add peripheral devices such as a steering wheel, foot pedals, gear shifters etc.
Dashboards within the simulation game are often very small and difficult to see, especially when on a smaller screen, so the use of additional devices to display this vital information also helps a lot.
And anyone who has tried to play complex video games or simulators just using a keyboard will know, trying to remember the dozens of complicated key combinations and which keys do what, can make or break a good game and spoil the enjoyment when wrong keys are pressed in a hurry. So external 'Button Boxes' that have easily identified and dedicated buttons and switches, can take the playability to a whole new level.
Below I will show some of these devices, and attempt to highlight both the good points and bad.
I can only recommend what I have actually tried out and used myself, and will point you towards suppliers that I have actual experience of purchasing from. Therefore there will be other alternatives!
