As the name suggested, this new Microsoft Xbox 360 controller is made for racing game, and will work flawlessly with Forza 4. From the appearance, it looks like a high end motion controller, or like an advanced version of Nintendo Wiimote plastic wheel housing. However, Kotaku said that there is no indication that this Wireless Speed wheel has the motion tracking system installed inside.

The controller itself has come complete with the haptic feedback D-pad, ABXY buttons and trigger buttons for gas and brake. There is also a green band of lights that should provide a nice turning visual feedback. To the middle there is on/off button accompanied with start and back button in circular shape.
