I'm a Sucker for these things.

We're gamers, so here is a good place to discuss other games you are playing or are curious about.

I'm a Sucker for these things.

Post by Michael Slaunwhite »

First I admit I have many failings (probably more that I'm not aware of), and I have a sever weakness for Simulators no matter how bad they are, and how bad the review. :unsure:

Anyway, here is a simulator I just started tinkering with, and I thought I would share this with the rest of you... So buckle up, and take a ride with this video of... European Bus Simulator 2012.

Hey B.

Uh, nope. :ohmy: Thanks for the link, but I think it would get pretty boring really fast. I also have seen one for farming, and truth be told I'm more into trucking, train simulators, Air Traffic Control, Flight Sims, and sometimes buses depending on what it offers (the first post on the bus simulator is interesting since I have a driving wheel).

I still have that weakness for sims though which makes me have to give these a try just to be sure. Many of them are pure crappolla, but it's nice to make sure. On very rare occasions you might strike gold from time to time which has happened to me (not often).

Keep them coming B if you do come across any. :)

This is exactly the type of thing I'm always talking about, it boggles the mind how companies are willing to put so much time and effort into these niche markets but there still isn't one age of sail simulation out there.

Not putting your game down mike, but there has to be a bigger market out there for a good fighting sailing sim than for woodcutting or mining or bus driving. There's no cannon on a bus for one thing:)

Woodcutter Simulator.. :laugh:

How about Dentist Simulator? Go in for a routine cleaning, and boom you're hit with a root canal!

Holy cr*p, next we'll have a "motorist stuck for 5 hours in a traffic queue" simulator.

These games must be cheap as cheese to churn out - a couple of 3d modellers, a couple of half-assed artists and a coder for some probably extremely simple game mechanisms.

Its a whole world away from a fighting sail simulation which has simply millions of variables compared to digging a hole and dumping the spoil in a truck!
