GAME COMPATIBILITY

NOTE: Most current-generation racing titles

automatically detect the Racing Wheel when

game is not 100% compatible with the Racing Wheel

after setup, please consult the game’s instruction

manual for assistance with in-game adjustments.

Control layouts for legacy titles can be found below:

PROjECT GOTHAM RACING 3 (PGR3) AND FORzA 2

WHEEL CONTROL MAPPING

Project Gotham Racing 3 by default uses the B Button

(Gear Up) and X Button (Gear Down / Reverse) to

control gear shifting and does not switch to Left

Bumper (Gear Down / Reverse) and Right Bumper

(Gear Up) when a wheel is connected. PGR3

therefore requires some configuration to use Xbox

360 standard wheels. Directions for re-configuring

PGR3 are below:

1.1. Press START Button and/or A Button until the

MAIN MENU is displayed.

1.2. Scroll down to the MORE… option using the

D-pad and press the A Button.

1.3. Scroll down to the OPTIONS option using the

D-pad and press the A Button.

1.4. Scroll down to the CONTROLLERS option using

the D-pad and press the A Button.

1.5. Scroll down to the Wheel A option using the

D-pad, then press the A Button to save this

configuration and exit the CONTROLLERS menu.

1.6. Press the B Button to exit the OPTIONS menu

and return to the MORE … menu.

1.7. Press the B Button to exit the MORE … menu

and return to the MAIN MENU.

Forza 2 will implement this switch automatically

when it detects a wheel has been connected.
