With a true-to-life cockpit design, the Classic Gaming Seat from Playseats puts you smack dab in the middle of your favorite racing game. The seat works with most racing titles and game systems, including the Xbox 360, GameCube, PlayStation, PlayStation2, and PCs. More importantly, the chair is notably comfortable while delivering the most realistic racing simulation around. Just install a game steering wheel on the middle pole and attach a couple of pedals along the bottom (all sold separately).

Customer Review: Playseat for Driving Force GT
Great seat for my Driving Force GT to play GT Prologue ... and also a nice seat for my kid while watching TV. The set up gives a good adjustment for length and height. The only star left for a perfect 5 is if an improvement can be devised to keep the swinging steering frame stable.
Customer Review: Good Playseat
I got this playseat classic in blue on sale last week for about $140. I was really excited when the price came down because I've been eyeing one and didn't want to spend $250 on it. I also bought the G25 racing wheel to go with it. It was after ordering it that I found out that the G25 wheel doesn't fit the playseat classic. This seat was made to fit the Logitech Driving Force GT perfectly. So if you have a PS3 and don't want to spend a lot of money on the G2, I would recommend the Driving Force GT. I wanted to keep the G25 so after googling I found several people that made it work so I was excited to try out some modifications. From the other reviewer on here they had said they used a 1x12 board so that's where I started. Using the provided velcro and some handy work I was able to mount the G25 pedal assembly. I connected the wood to the pedals using 5/16 x 1 1/2 inch screws. I then attached the whole thing to the metal plate of the playseat using 4 strips of velcro. I have added some pics of my handy work to the gallery (please enjoy). The one thing that I was excited about was the gearshift assembly mount, because that cost $50 if you were to order one. I made that from some shelving bracket and left over wood for about $2.
The review of the playseat over all is average. The seat itself is of good quality, but the frame is a little weak as many of the other reviewers had already said. The frame is flimsy but it's not overly flimsy that it's unusable. I think it's passable for the price you pay. The only really flimsy part is the single steering collumn where the body is attached to the steering wheel. Also the part where the metal rod attaches to the seat is also flimsy. If you want a more stable gaming seat I would consider getting the Playseat Evolution. The price is about $300 so you have to consider if you are willing to spend that much or not. Over all it works and I'm happy with it. It was worth the money I spent on it. My son and I are having a blast playing Dirt, Ridge Racer, Nascar 09 and Burnout Paradise on my PS3.

Customer Review: Must Have, Must Own, Must Experience
This console is by far the best you're gonna get this generation. Microsoft has come along way when you compare the Xbox 360 to it's brother the Xbox 1. Microsoft actually listended to what gamers wanted, and that's fun hardcore games, amazing online, and custimizable dashboards. This is truly a system that can't be beat, you can enjoy all types of games such as Gears of War 1 and 2 come this November 2008, Mass Effect, Halo 3 (probably 4 in a year or two) and Netflix on your 360. As always when there are goods things about something there are bad things too! As you may already know, these Xbox 360's suffer from what is known as the RROD or (Read Ring of Death) which is when you get three-flashing-red-lights which is an indicator of a severe hardware failure. Thank goodness Microsoft extended everyones warranty for free to 3 years, ONLY if you experience the 3rrod error. Lastly, the customer service @ Microsoft sucks, they don't care about your issue, the people you speak to are overseas and don't speak english clearly enough to communicate to you as to what the solution will be, and again THE CUSTOMER SERVICE SUCKKKKKKSS!!! Other than that the 360 beats it's competitors by far. Kudos to Microsoft for making a system that just can't be beat, but Microsoft work on your customer service a LOT more because in the end that goes along way as to where you stand with your reputation.
Customer Review: Great customer service
I've seen some previous reviews and highly disagree with 'em. People, if you wanted memory alongside this, you shoulda read the description better. As for me, these people have done nothing but watch my back. I purchased one way back in January and it still runs smooth as silk. I had all my cords and memory and whatnot from my previous and busted 360. and in my opinion, it ran better. When I went to buy another as a gift for a friend, the first thing that happened was they asked me if it was because the last one I bought was busted already. They gave me instructions that were not only beneficial but very kind. These people look out for their customers unlike the rest of of the customer services I dealt with. I for one have never once made a regret of buying this. But for those who just rush shop and not pay attention, then, yeah, let the buyer beware.
