PS3 Gaming Chair

We’ve a long history of gaming systems and hardware, and over the last two months we’ve spent the most of our time on two VR3 gaming seats! Say goodbye to go-karts, and hello VisionRacer gaming seat – seriously, this is a new dimension to gaming. This is a step change from the focus on graphics, to experience.

To really test the system, we installed the Logitech G25 steering wheel which delivers the ultimate in force feedback, and if you combine that with a good set of speakers to deliver the bass, then you have the ultimate machine. The VR3 racing seat is as expensive as it is fast, not for the feint hearted – but hey, its one hell of an experience. As far as racing seats go, VisionRacer is in the lead – an expensive lead, but well deserved lead. For optimal performance of this gaming seat, you really need a 24″ LCD Screen and a good set of speakers – we used Logitech or our testing. There is no point in using cheap speakers or a small LCD – you’ll need to invest in a good set. The VR3 is the ultimate gaming seat, so dont go cheap on the accessories. It’s times like this where professional consultancy and installation has to be considered to get the most out of the system. At Gaming Seat we can provide home installation, supply and support if required. After playing for hours on end we found that we weren’t suffering from stiff joints or otherwise. The VisionRacer chair combines the best blend of being comfortable whilst being realistic. Its obvious a lot of effort has gone into the design phase here, providing a solid ergonomically correct chair. The VisionRacer fitted with gear shift control and force feedback steering wheel is fantastic – a neccessary combination. The VisionRacer is currently under testing in a 3 Screen PC configuration running the G25 steering wheel (which is PC and PS3 Compatible). The steering wheel compatibility is important because hardware on the PC can be upgraded more easily than that of PS3’s – although its your choice at the end of the day. If you have young children, you’ll need a couple of cushions to shift them forward, though in all honesty, this isn’t a game for young children at this expense, its a serious investment for the die hard gamers. In summary, the VR3 is best of breed as far as gaming seats go. The VisionRacer will do the Racing Game industry, what the Wii did to Console Games…its all good.
