If you want simulators then,

 

Live For Speed (The most realistic tire physics)
Rfactor (awesome mods)

Asseto Corsa early access on steam

 

Also BeamNG Drive, but it is in Early Alpha.

 

Grid 2 is arcade, not a sim, so are the nfs series.

Grid 2 and TDU2 are arcade games, not simulators. :)

He didn't ask for sims though. Just games with the ability to manual shift.

 

@Dragon2hand, there are a lot of games that have a shifter. Maybe if you knew of a game you were interested in I could tell you if it has manual shifting.

On every single thread about driving games someone posts this link. I'd just like to point out that it is missing a lot of games.

 

Well, find a site that lists ever single game, but I doubt many of the additional games support manual shifting using a wheel/stick combo.

Sorry but NFS doesn't really count as a racing sim

Setup: i5 4670k @ 4.2 Ghz, Corsair H100i Cooler, Corsair Vengeance Pro 16GB Ram @ 1600 Mhz, MSI Z87-GD65 Motherboard, Corsair GS700 2013 edition PSU, MSI GTX 770 Lightning, Samsung EVO 120 SSD + 2TB&1TB Seagate Barracudas, BenQ XL2411T Monitor, Sennheiser HD 598 Headphones + AntLion ModMic 4.0

In the loosest sense of the word ever. 

Also no ones mentioned iRacing yet. Also NetKar pro (Kunos older work) Ferrari Academy 2010 (again Kunos) Race Room Experience (Free) and its expansion DTM Experience (not free)

 

The link I posted has lot's listed that mostly do support manual shift.

 

There's also BMW M3 Challenge and Volvo - The game from Simbin also. [Free]

I don't know how I missed that, sorry man. Nice setup btw, I love my G27, aside from the gear knob (which I replaced) and the brake pedal (which hopefully will be better when my Nixim mod arrives) 

When I build a base for it I'll add a handbrake. And of course I'll be getting the Rift :D

Beamng isn't really a racing simulator yet. They are adding time trials in the next update, but I don't think any actual racing will be added until much later, when the AI can drive better than my dog. Still an awesome game, and it's going to be on steam soon. I'd suggest getting it just for the amazing crashes, and awesome modding community. 

My new rig build log:http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/80801-m-itx-pc/?p=1158887 Now finished with  970!                          Can anybody give me a freelancer?                  I need to transport more HYPBP.               Butt Imperium games                     RAINBOW .                   840 EVO still awesome                    The evil that is verizon has been vanquished!      ܝܘܚܢܢ ܒܝܬ ܐܦܪܝܡ
