We recently Reviewed World of subway 2 by TML which we rated excelent simulator game
I always dreamed that TML should make a Busgame
So imagine the Surprise when I today hear about World of Busdriver
You can say the News got me all exited and i still can't believe is true

World of busdriver Vol.1: M42 New york city
(not to be confused with Busdriver by scs)
put you in the seat as busdriver
on Route 42 in the middle of The world largest skyscraper city

Some of the Specs:
* street true to the original
* realistic vehicle construction
* 3D cab with all operating elements and pivoting view
* different camera perspectives
* dynamic change between day and night with realistic lighting conditions
* dynamic weather
* real traffic
* You can get off the bus and explore

2009 Must be the Great year of Busgames
there is already 3 greats busgames in development:
OMSI
Bus simulator 2009
VBUS 2009

The game is still in beta stages and i couldn't help by notice
the Vol.1 label meaning the Busadventure will go on in a serie of more volumes
Maybe Vol.2 will be in Europe.

SPECS SO FAR:
* times square, theaters, Madame Tussauds, Chrysler Building, Grand Central Station, Bryant Park with New York Public Library, Circle Line, Intrepid and Port Authority Bus Terminal included
* street true to the original
* realistic vehicle construction
* animated wipers
* 3D cab with all operating elements and pivoting view
* different camera perspectives
* dynamic change between day and night with realistic lighting conditions
* dynamic weather
* real traffic (traffic lights, AI-traffic, traffic)
* You can get off the bus and explore environment at all times
* extensive evaluation system at the end of all tasks

So far the specs are good but what Does WOB.1 has
that Omsi and bus simulator 2009 won't?
While Am a Fan of European Buses I think it was a Good idea to Set Wob.1 in New york
this will make Wob.1 stand out from the rest.
If World of Busdriver will be so good as World of subway
then we can expect a realistic Busgame
with a impressive Cabview and good graphics and the famous explore mode.
I hope lot of work will be put in World of Busdriver 1 so it can realy compete with OMSI
