@Poisdly: My son - 14 years, FULL age of puberty - sometimes say to me: "Chillax Dad. Soon you will get over it! Be cool." Most of the times this makes me ..........Ggrggrgrgggggrrrrrrrr, but I have to acknowledge that sometimes he is so damned right!

Let's race here (FM4) now and race there (FM5) in future. What really is important is .................. NOW! 130Be happy, don't worry. Aah, who was the singer??????

Bobby McFerrin, commited suicide I believe...

I think this issue with the wheels might come down to licensing issues, and as someone touched on before, the last rollout wasn't smooth, and they might have signed up with someone else, which prevents them from being loose with proprietary info to Fanatec. WHich leaves them scrambling a bit late to the dance. And all of this is as Poids pointed out, just guessing in the dark...

Where I'm at, we would have taken a more hands on approach with a supplier issue and tried to help them get their issues sorted before dumping them, but hey, we all know Microsofts not well known for playing softball...

Just saw a Facebook post by Thrustmaster, in which they confirmed that the new Thrustmaster Xbox One wheel will not work with PS4.  I have not seen confirmation as to whether it will work with PC.

These guys don't know their core audience.  Guys like us that are willing to spend $400 or more on a wheel probably want more than Xbox One compatibility.
