    Several games/simulations have been mentioned needing a plugin because you desperately want to play them with motion.

    Some of these additional titles are Need for Speed series , GTA, Burnout Paradise, Grand Prix Legends, Nascar series, Battlefield; new titles that are coming in 2014 like D Series, F1 2014, The Crew, Mad Max, Next Car Game, Spintires, World of Speed, etc.

    What is your need? Let us know please. There is finite time we can devote to the development of new plugins, so we would like to concentrate on the real stuff :)

    The poll list is not conclusive, post your own wish list.

    Thank you and kind regards,
    @value1, @prilad

    need for speeds and burnout paradise constantly asked about from friends of mine, even though they dont own a motion rig. Although they would be good additions.
    Maybe for FPS games like the battlefields or Hawken or CODs.
    mechawarrior online plugin would be nifty as well.
    Too many choices....

    If more FPS style games get motion, I can build another desk racer for in the house, as the desk racer was a great design for such planned motion

    Would be nice to have Test Drive or Test Drive unlimited, I have both but like the first one the most, its just a relaxing drive , or race and even the taxi drive is so cool in that game.

    I personally like pure simulations more than games even though games are fun too. There are a couple of older but great titles that are deserving of plugins imho.

    Grand Prix Legends (listed in the poll) is a great simulation of vintage GP cars from back in the day when the cars had virtually no down force! It takes great skill just to keep them on the road much less pass! With a mod it will work with a G27 and shifter and also run at 5760 x 1080 resolution even though its well over 10 years old now.

    Another I would like to see supported is Nascar Racing 2003 Season. Its code is the predecessor to iRacing and its a great simulation too! From Wikipedia:
    It still sells for over $50 used on ebay for a reason! Both GPL and NR2003 are Pypyrus titles written by the same team more or less. Some of the main people later formed iRacing after Pypyrus closed their doors when their Nascar contract expired and was obtained by Electronic Arts.



    Note: No need to waste time on any Electronic Arts Nascar titles. They are bad quality games in comparison!

    Yes they pretty old but classics be cool to include them.
    I wasted ,many of hours in GPL on a MadCatz v1 Steering Wheel, god it was fun, be cool to relive it on a motion sim.
    But have to disagree with the Nascar I actually enjoy the challenge of the EA Game. Might not be a top sim but challenging it is.

    1up on Star Citizen, but if they take too long with Oculus rift DK2 support I might change my vote to Elite Dangerous :)
