Impossible to control the steering

First, I love the offroad premise, the cars, the graphics, the sound, etc. The only problem is the game is designed for consoles where the only support for turning a wheel left and right is for buttons. Even if you do buy a wheel, and I tried buying two separate brand-new expensive wheels, all the wheel does is the equivalent of pushing those buttons, so there’s no relationship between the amount you turn the wheel and where the car goes.

Ok, no wheels, fine. What about mouse support? None. The only thing you’ve got on the Mac is keyboard buttons, and the minum steering input you can get is about 10 degrees, meaning the car veers left and then veers right, careening all over the place. Even Mario Kart has smoother controls.

So, we’re left with a cool-looking driving game with cool cars, and the crappiest control system I’ve ever seen on any driving game.
