I recently got my hands on a Venom Hurricane Steering Wheel that apparently can work on both the PS3 and PS4, but it doesn't seem to want to connect on my PS4?
This is the Wheel in question..

https://venomuk.com/get/hurricane-steering-wheel/


It says the wheel's Firmware can be updated but I cant find the software anywhere (any Google Search Ninjas wanna take a stab at fining it be my guest) :)
The wheel connects perfectly to my Laptop, which it sees as a PS4 Controller, but the PS4.. Nada :/ the wheel's Player1 light indicator doesn't even come on.. Weirdly if I try to connect it to my PS4 via my Magic NS adapter the light DOES come on (but obviously it wont work since the NS adapter isn't supported on PS4 but strange none the less)

So anyone else here have this Wheel? does it work for you?
I read somewhere that Sony disabled 3rd party Controllers before could they have just disabled it somehow?

EDIT: well Shit.. I think I may have an answer..

"Please note: To be compatible with the latest 1TB PS4 system C-Chassis (CUH-1200) model the Hurricane Steering Wheel requires an additional USB hub"

My PS4 Slim is 500GB version but still that maybe the issue..
So the question is what the hell USB HUB are they on about.? :P


Still if anyone finds that Software it would be much appreciated :D

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
    for people with beefy hands.

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that's a long shot
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.
  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
