NL vs. GPL

Which sold more, GPL or NL? Are they considering a sequel to either? I wish Sierra would look into making a GPL 2. I'd love to drive along side Villeneuve and Arnoux at the start of the turbo era... -- -Brett Goodbye Greg Moore 1975-1999 "I will see you at the front, and wish me luck..." - Greg Moore

Neither will probably ever see a sequel. NL is being packaged with the N3/CTS Accelerattion pak. N3 has hundreds of Online racers every night, NL has had two at most when I've been there. GPL is a great sucess for a small community. I don't see the pressure to pursue other open wheel projects at Papyrus. You can basically call them the Nascar Store for any forseeable future. dave henrie ps...I got NL for the same reason I still hang onto CART Racing, it makes a good track pak for my TPTCC racing and N3 road racing.

NL is more like a companion to N3. Same gaming engine as N3. Bigger cars that wear out tires faster. It only has 2 things in common with GPL. It was made by Papyrus, and it has the word "Legends" in it. As for the sales... No idea. But I bought it and love it. Dean Brett wrote in message <01bebe8a$681196a0$f9b28ad1@default>...

We will never have any sequel to those titles. Maybe in 50years, who knows ;) > I wish Sierra would look into making a GPL 2.

Unfortunately Papyrus decided to live with the purely business decisions of Sierra, so in today's gaming business it's money and only money. We will probably never see another historical Formula 1 title unless Sierra does a drastic philosophical change. But don't bet on that, especially not from Sierra. There is little left of pure gaming. -- -- Fran�ois M�nard <ymenard> -- May the Downforce be with you... -- http://www.WeRace.net -- People think it must be fun to be a super genius, but they don't realise how hard it is to put up with all the idiots in the world.

Remember Dynamix.... A design house that brought us some truly great flight sims in the earlier days. Sierra disbanded them to concentrate on what? Barbie, and "family" titles +( Md ymenard wrote:

if they split papy up sierra would go bankrupt in 2.0 seconds....boy that's faster than a viper from 0-60

LOL, it would be nice to think so.... I remember the year PCGAMER voted Half Life best game of the year, they then also listed Best Sellers of the year.... Barbie won by a mile or one of those sort of titles... Md Ray127611 wrote: > > if they split papy up sierra would go bankrupt in 2.0 seconds....boy that's > faster than a viper from 0-60
