Now I can recreate Speed 1 whenever I like. The dream can be realised!

Don't forget...

In Vice City you could jack then drive a bus around the town picking up passengers.

In San Andreas you could drive the freight train.

I'm rather hoping GTA4 will let you drive the subway train as one of the side activities.

Anyhow, Bus Sim 2008 is on order here. I'm rather hoping it will let you simulate Thamesdown Transport (Swindon), i.e. tired old Dennis Darts with half the seats removed so they can fit in a couple of single mother pushchairs, exact fare only so tough if you haven't got the correct change - oh and the other half of the bus full of ***** chavscum/25 year old grandmothers, bragging about their latest drug deal, ASBO award, welfare fiddle or sexual encounter.

I just noticed this message for the demo of "Bus Driver":
"Our download servers are currently under severe load. If possible, please consider using the torrent or one of the alternate mirror links below.
Thank you."

Its all you lot eagerly downloading the demo of this no-doubt fantastic game, isn't it?

Oh I cant wait for the intensity of driving a double decker down a road only to realise the height restriction on the upcoming bridge is a problem..........

The game takes place in the fictional metropolis of Megacity. 18 different routes need to be mastered during 34 missions. To be a successful bus driver, keep to the timetable and transport as many passengers as possible, avoiding reckless driving and lateness to maintain an impeccable reputation in the neighbourhood. There are 8 different bus models to choose from with more available to download online.

lol I find it hillarious how they call them "missions"

Might give the demo a go then if GRID is pap

MarcLister · 9 May 2008 at 18:21

Downloaded the demo. Its OK but the screen resolution needs to be set higher which needs a restart of the game. The controls page is very confusing. The keys and the functions they do are out of line so you can't really tell which key does what.

Digital · 9 May 2008 at 18:25

Hmm, 171MB worth a download while waiting for Grid.

MarcLister · 9 May 2008 at 18:38

How the heck do I get the doors to open?!

marc2003 · 10 May 2008 at 02:34

as tempting as the description sounds, i think i'll pass.
