Wheely bad news?

For the longest time PlayStation 4 racer DriveClub seemed like it would never release. But now, with the title mere weeks away, Sony has released a list on the PlayStation Blog of all the peripherals that will work with the game. And, if we're totally honest, it's a disappointingly short list. Indeed, only the Thrustmaster T80 and Thrustmaster T300RS wheels will be supported at launch.

As for the reasoning behind this inexplicable exclusivity, competitor Logitech confirmed on Twitter back in August that the PS4 requires a security chip for full functionality, and that its popular G27 wheel doesn't include said chip. Don't panic too much, though, as the Japanese giant was quick to confirm in the comments section that it has plans to add support for other peripherals down the line.

What's more, considering the firm's decidedly consumer focussed approach in recent months, we suspect that the ensuing public outcry will lead to a suitably quick change of policy. Does this decision affect your plans for DriveClub? Is your driving wheel supported? Rev your engines in the comments section below.
