*cue movie guy voice* This Spring...the wheels on the bus...go round and round. Finally a game for those hopelessly drawn to the glamorous, high-risk world of public transportation. Bus Driver is a PC game coming in May from SCS Software, the folks behind Deer Hunter II & III and the 18 Wheels of Steel series. It features 12 different buses, 30 different routes, and many different bus-centric tasks, such as sightseeing tours and prisoner transport. It is a completely ridiculous concept...with so many different video game escapes available, who the hell would want to drive a bus? Me, apparently. I have no clue why, but the prospect of driving a large bus around town just appeals to me. Maybe it's because I am a 6'6" guy who drives a tiny Nissan Sentra. Legroom envy, perhaps?
