Trip Hawkins, who not only founded EA but was the driving force behind the 3DO, is often described as a "colourful" figure in video game history. Part of that is because he's been so important, but it's also because he's in a world of trouble. More »

When we first posted about the Desert Bus For Hope drive, in which a few unlucky charitable types would be forced to play through the bore-torture game Desert Bus for days upon end for a good cause, donations were at $2,000. As of this post, the outpouring of money from sadistic do-gooders is over $12,000. And that's Canadian dollars, too! The good kind! Donations don't appear to be slowing down either, so make sure to do your part to keep that bus a-rollin'. More »

The gang from LoadingReadyRun are enduring many, many, many hours of "playing" the commercially unreleased Desert Bus, a sadistically monotonous driving game from Penn & Teller's Smoke And Mirrors, all in the name of charity. Originally planned for release on the Sega CD and 3DO, Desert Bus requires eight-full hours of play to complete, with no pausing and absolutely no reward (save for a single point). Masochistic players drive a slightly unbalanced bus in a straight line, from Las Vegas to Tucson, experiencing virtually no changes in the scenery. For eight hours. Then they go back. Another eight hours. More »

A group tracking religious rights activities says the Christian game Left Behind is wall-to-wall spyware. Game play and ad viewing will be tracked once the title is installed on PCs. The software can't be deleted or removed. Moreover, it apparently locates where in the world your computer is and reports how many times a day you use it. Don't think "spyware," think "computer angels." More »

Screenhead sends word of the never released Penn & Teller game for the Sega CD and 3DO consoles. The game sounds like one big goof on gaming with challenges like driving a bus through the Nevada desert. The drive takes 8 hours of real time through an empty desert in a bus that randomly veers to the right. More »
