If I want a real train sim. I'll buy a Lionel train set. But after awhile, YAWN.

The graphics look as if they were at least three years old (probably older), the animations of the people were a joke and the voicing a catastrophe. So it has everything a total failure needs.

Wait, so are you suggesting that with better graphics, animations, and voice-acting you'd be all over the City Bus Simulator?

But with all that stuff it might be fun for 30minutes....

Honestly, The Sims brought out the same reaction in me.

Based on the video.....

There needs to be more traffic, lots more! Might not be fun to sit on the bus and move two feet every five minutes, but thats what rush hour traffic is like.

There should be more people too, sometimes the bus gets so crowded you can barely get on or off it.

Not every street (the majority) don't have bus lanes. Another touch of realism would be to have delivery trucks or idleing cars at the bus stops.

Lastly, a few different bus types would be cool. The ones in the video are the older models, there are some newer buses in NY that look a bit like milk cartons now. Plus there are other busses that look like Grayhound style buses, even busses that are so long they have a divider in the middle that turns whenever the bus makes a turn.

I hope so, because I feel the same way. I just can't wait for the assembly line simulator due next fall.

And don't forget the AI who jump in front of the bus to try and stop it, and the vomit and leftover take-aways, chavs throwing bricks and fireworks, the inspector who complains because you're running late, the OAPs that take six years to board and another seven to find their bus pass and the occasional brawl in the back.

That's a true simulator!

Another masterpiece: Achterbahn-Simulator (Rollercoaster Simulator).

It simulates you sitting in a rollercoaster and rolling with the coaster.

Brilliant, except the lacking steering wheel - gameplay is a bit linear, I fear.

As a remedy, there is an complete alternative way of playing the game: simulating you standing to the side of the rollercoaster and watching the coaster rolling all by itself without you being aboard. Fabulous.

One could integrate a wrestling game to it so that you can take part in the brawls and throw the punks out.
