18 Wheels is incredible, just the best game ever. When you drive past Roswell there’s even a UFO! A UFO IN A “NORMAL” GAME!

I was entranced by 18 Wheels. It’s a really clever piece of design, and driving safely for 30-40 minutes on the trot is hard work. That said, it *is* boring. It’s the kind of mild boredom which isn’t even unpleasant, more hypnotic.

Q: how do you feel about the criticism that the game should have included an "in-bus" view? PS: "We are probably losing some sales because of it."

Classic :D ...but I'm going to be honest, I find the games they make seductive (in a rough around the edges kind of way). It's just a shame they are such a small developer so they can't embellish their products. I can understand people not liking the game, but the concept is well worth exploiting.

devs who make their living from mesmerically boring driving games.

Hey I thought this was a PC gaming blog, less about GranTurismo please.
