About Judy

As WP's managing editor, I edit review and preview articles, attempt to keep up with the frantic pace of Rainier's news posts, and keep our reviewers on deadline, which is akin to herding cats. When I have a moment to myself and don't have my nose in a book, I like to play action/RPG, adventure and platforming games.

Wednesday, June 4, 2008 Shipping Announcements

by Judy on June 4, 2008 @ 12:23 p.m. PDT

Another day, another batch of games shipped to stores. Instead of giving them all their own posts, we grouped them, and so far there are announcements for:

  • Bus Driver (PC)

  • We will update this throughout the day when new announcements become available. Read more for details ...

Bus Driver (PC)

In Bus Driver, your job is to transport passengers around an attractive and realistic city. You must drive to a timetable on a planned route, while obeying traffic rules, and taking care not to upset or injure your passengers. This makes Bus Driver unlike any other driving game – the experience of driving a bus is very different from blazing through a racing circuit.

  • 12 buses to drive – detailed models inspired by real-world buses, including London's double-decker bus, America's school bus, Europe's low floor buses and many more
  • 30 routes arranged into 5 tiers with increasing difficulty
  • Multiple duties, such as driving a school bus, transporting tourists, sight-seeing tours and even the transportation of prisoners
  • High replay value based on sophisticated system of traffic rules and game-play related bonuses.
  • Large city to drive in, with several districts of varying styles: modern, old-town, suburb, airport, harbor and more with day/night cycles and realistic weather conditions.
  • Living roads with intelligent traffic controlled by AI system
  • Non-violent, easy to pick up gameplay, suitable for all ages.

"I'm pleased that this type of game can get widespread distribution. Bus Driver is a fun, addictive title that is fun to play for all ages." said Andy Sher, CEO at Meridian4.

Bus Driver is currently available in most retail stores, including GameStop and online channels, including Direct2Drive. The game is rated E by the ESRB and carries a suggested retail price of $29.99.
