This may not be the most exciting video I've ever made, I have been meaning to test the new modifications to analogue controls and then remembered that I also had a racing wheel and pedals that I'd not used in ages so I added that too and tested all 3 to see which was most efficient.

Initially I was surprised that (SPOILERS) the keyboard won by such a margin but thinking back over it, this outcome makes perfect sense. I'm most used to using the keyboard for driving, fairly used to using the xbox controller for driving and totally rusty at using the wheel (and never used it in Arma). Not only that, I did the course in reverse order so I was least familiar with it when using the wheel and most familiar with it using the keyboard. Given a few hours of practice I'm sure the wheel would have been the winner, even if not, it felt fantastic to drive with.

The footage was also my first PC capture with my new Avermedia Live Gamer Portable at 30Mbit quality, seems to do a pretty damned nice job.
