There are 8 different bus models to choose from with more available to download online.<br /><br />If the timetable is adhered to and enough tickets sold, the necessary cash flow to run the bus company is accumulated. Once in charge of the bus company the player can rent or buy larger buses but must take steps to maintain the vehicles. There is also the option to invest in advertising campaigns and special offers to attract more customers. Other business elements such as renting advertising spaces on the buses can be a useful way to generate extra cash flow. </p> </div> <h2>Features</h2> <div id="productFeatures" class="pod"> <ul><li>Huge and well detailed city model with traffic and pedestrians<br /></li><li>Different view modes including overhead and cockpit (driver)<br /></li><li>Different weather conditions and times of day<br /></li><li>Online score tables<br /></li><li>Easy to use interface </li></ul> </div>maletahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12928014129419701678noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5605693262764396564.post-40935642363230231752008-05-10T19:28:00.002+00:002008-05-10T19:34:05.425+00:00Call of Duty 5 WWII-bound<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.gamoholic.net/img/cod-5-wwii.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 200px;" src="http://www.gamoholic.net/img/cod-5-wwii.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br />Treyarch, the development team responsible for the decent Call of Duty 3, has clearly already spearheaded development on its next project, Call of Duty 5. The recently released Call of Duty 4 brought modern warfare to the table, but apparently Treyarch has eschewed the idea of emulating the awe-inspiring title. Instead, they are vying once again to create a WWII shooter, if a job ad on their website is accurate.<br /><br />They're searching for a level builder who has “working experience with First-Person Shooter or Third-Person Shooter genres,” adding that “if you’re a fan of World War II shooters, then even better!”<br /><br />We're fairly positive that 99% of people will not be pleased by this news - primarily due to the awesomeness that emanated from every megabyte of COD4.<br /><br />We'll let you know if the listing does indeed imply what it seems to.<br /><br />Relesing Date of this game for PC is still unknown!!!<br /><br />Its should be in the begining of 2009.maletahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12928014129419701678noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5605693262764396564.post-15737988710599875812008-05-09T14:04:00.002+00:002008-05-09T14:29:08.378+00:00Gamespy Interviews J. Allen Brack<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.yowazzup.com/blog/images/wow_wrath-of-the-lich-king.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 268px; height: 202px;" src="http://www.yowazzup.com/blog/images/wow_wrath-of-the-lich-king.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br />Here's one more tidbit of WoTLK information for you, courtesy of <a href="http://pc.gamespy.com/pc/world-of-warcraft-wrath-of-the-lich-king/872789p1.html">Gamespy</a>. They sat down for an interview with co-lead design J. Allen Brack. Most of the information is stuff we've heard in the past or have already posted on in this morning's massive flurry, but it's always nice to get a peek into the brain of the folks who bring us this amazing game.<br /><p>Among some of the things discussed by J. Allen Brack and Gamespy:</p> <ul><li> <div>Flying Mounts are gone until level 77, at which point you will either complete a quest or a visit a trainer to be able to use them again. You will still not be able to use the mounts in the old world, so even though Naxxramas is on Azeroth, your flying mount will not be able to cross back over the sea to visit the old stomping grounds. The Old World was designed using too many graphical shortcuts in places people were not meant to access to allow flying mounts. </div> </li><li> <div>They have recieved massive positive feedback so far about the return to Azeroth and the old traditional fantasy as opposed to the sci-fi feel of the Burning Crusade. In that same vein, they are bringing back many familiar sights and storylines from Old Azeroth. Sholozar Basin will be Un'goro 2.0, complete with crystals and pylons. No word on whether it will also contain more Land of the Lost and Nintendo references. It will also contain some of the flavors of Stranglethorn and the old Netherstorm biodomes, says J. Allen. </div> </li><li> <div>In a similar vein, we can expect to see more of the ever-popular Scarlet Crusade, this time in the form of the Scarlet Onslaught. The Worgen are back in homage to the Sons of Arugal and Shadowfang Keep. </div> </li><li> <div>While the city of Dalaran will be headed up to WoTLK, don't expect to see nothing but a hole in the ground where it used to be in Alterac. J. Allen reveals that they do have plans for the spot, and the concept drawings they have for it look very cool. </div> </li><li> <div>The Dragonblight, J. Allen Brack said, is probably his favorite new piece of content for the expansion. It is where the Dragons were born, where they recieved sentience from the Titans, and where they come to die, and where the Lich King has been twisting Dragon corpses to serve him as Frost Wyrms, so there's a lot of great lore and history there. It will include a raid instance called the Chamber of the Aspects, and while no bosses have been designed for it yet, it will probably have bosses representing each of the Dragonflights. </div> </li></ul> <p>It sounds like the developers are nearly as excited about WoTLK as we are, which is usually a good sign of things to come. We hope you've enjoyed all this awesome new information we've found for you tonight. There may be more to come, so stay tuned as we scour all the latest news. </p>maletahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12928014129419701678noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5605693262764396564.post-59035797309088428592007-09-01T22:50:00.000+00:002007-09-01T23:02:04.083+00:00Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://a248.e.akamai.net/f/248/5462/2h/images.gamezone.com/screens/32/2/14/s32214_pc_1.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 400px;" src="http://a248.e.akamai.net/f/248/5462/2h/images.gamezone.com/screens/32/2/14/s32214_pc_1.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><h2><br /></h2><h2><br /></h2><h2>News</h2> <div id="news" class="pod"> <p><a href="http://pc.gamezone.com/news/08_28_07_10_25AM.htm">Tee Off with Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08 as it Hits Retail Today</a> <br />Challenge Others with EA SPORTS GamerNet and Put Yourself in the Game through Photo Game Face</p> <p><a href="http://pc.gamezone.com/news/08_01_07_06_10PM.htm">Tiger Woods 08 Photo Game Face Video</a> <br />Put yourself in the game like never before.</p> <p><a href="http://pc.gamezone.com/news/04_12_07_02_28PM.htm">New Features Announced for Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08</a> <br />Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08 Tees off with EA Sports GamerNet and Photo Game Face</p> </div> <h2> Description</h2> <div id="description" class="pod"> <p>Take on the world in Tiger Woods PGA TOUR® 08.

In the past two years, the critically acclaimed basketball game has performed like the Boston Celtics over the past two seasons: a major disappointment with only a few highlights here and there. Plus, with the release of NBA Live 07 for the PS3's launch window officially benched, hoops fans, and even some critics, questioned whether or not the series was beginning to lose ground to its competition.<br /><br />At an event last month, a very select group of journalists were gathered to get a very early glimpse at the latest installment of the basketball franchise, <a href="http://ps3.ign.com/objects/900/900781.html" title="NBA Live 08"><b>NBA Live 08</b></a>. The reason behind this was simple: to show off the new direction the series is headed in for this year, as well as highlight some of the adjustments that are being made to remedy Live 07's problems. With both games running side by side, the first, and perhaps most immediately noticeable difference between Live 07 and 08 was the frame rate. Unlike Live 07, which consistently featured a large amount of slowdown, Live 08 was running at a stable 60 frames a second regardless of the action on the court.<br />Another change that's been made is the overall presentation of the game. No longer will you find yourself practicing in the austere, atmospheric "temple-like gym" with T-Mac. While that looked cool, NBA Live 08 rips players away from that metallic cargo hold with a basketball hoop and places them in an actual team's arena. In effect, it emphasizes the concept of a player on the court before a game, taking a few warm up shots or practice shots on the court before he goes into the locker room and gets into his pre-game routine.<br /><br />Speaking of shots, the wild, errant trajectories of last year's title was definitely fixed. Now, when a player was making a baseline jumper, the ball didn't look like it was about to hit the rafters before it approached the backboard. Shots had realistic arcs to them and, as a major change from last year's title, would fall or miss based on the player shooting the ball. Another surprise was that players could actually make layups without fearing that the ball would bounce off the rim, a frustrating problem that plagued Live 07.<br /><br />Live 08 also showcased a new attention to detail in the rebounding department. Last year's game simply featured guys jumping straight up, and the ball would literally warp to a rebounder's hands as if drawn there by a string. In Live 08, players are now angling their bodies and their arms towards the ball, grasping for the loose ball or putting themselves in position to make a play. Subtle little changes like this make a significant difference towards improving the realism of the game.<br /><br /><a href="http://media.ps3.ign.com/media/900/900781/imgs_1.html">GALLERY </a> <a href="http://media.ps3.ign.com/media/900/900781/vids_1.html"> VIDEO</a>maletahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12928014129419701678noreply@blogger.com0
