G25 -> G29 upgrade, worth it?
Hello people,
I've been using a Logitech G25 for a solid 5 years now probably and because of the black Friday weekend I'm looking into an upgrade.

My question is, is it a worthy upgrade to go from a G25 to a G29? They are currently for sale for €170 (Excluding the shifter).

Also, if there is anyone who has made this upgrade in the past, could you tell me the differences in feeling?

Note: My G25 is still going strong with the exception that 1 of the 2 red buttons on the wheel is broken.

Games I mostly play are: Assetto (obviously), Forza motorsport 7 and occasionally Wreckfest.

Thanks for reading.

Hi,
The G29 is very close to the g25 for the FFB engine. You talk about Upgrade, it's what it is. You have more buttons on the wheel, with a better position directly on the wheel. i Had a g27, look at the shifter , the cross pad and 4 buttons are placed on it, that is not a good idea. I have the g29 for 6 months and i'm very satisfied of it. I play assetto via Content manager, which provide some extra tools for the FFB. ANd i was surprised that the brake pedal is now hard to push, that's not the case on G25 G27. All That for 170€, Go for it. You can obviously choose other wheels like thrusmaster or fanatec but they don't have better Quality/Price ratio for 170€. Moreover, you can add any shifter you like (The Th8-a is a good option)

I'd rather suggest you to get the T500RS. The FFB on the G920/G29 is super noisy and the brake pedal is barely acceptable if not modded (warranty void). I regret having bought the G920. Also the shifter is of low quality.
Sure the vaule for the price is okay, but if you want an upgrade, go for Thrustmaster and a belt driven FFB.

I had a G27 for 8 years. It is definitely not worth it any Logitech.
If you want to seriouslty upgrade and feel a huge difference in FFB (and improve your times) get a T300RS (since T500 is way more expensive) for 220 euros with 2 pedals ( if you dont need a shifter).
Then when you have another 220euros, buy the Fanatec CSL Elite pedals with load cell, and APOCALYPSE........ (even bigger upgrade compared to the wheel)
You have an entry Hi end rig, enjoy!!!
