Yay! A new train simulator.

This one looks class. You can easily add new trains now, which is great. I found it difficult adding them in the first game.

The whole game looks pretty damn good. I'm definatly gunna be buying it.

I'm hoping someone makes an Underground track, that would kick ass.

Am I the only person interested in this? LOL.

Well...discuss?

Well you're the one who's played a train sim before, you tell us.

so presumably you stand at the end of a virtual platform with your virtual pencil and notepad wearing a virtual anorak?

I'm taking it seriously. Love Train Sim games.

Me thinks you're all not taking this seriously!

Have to say I don't blame you. Do have Train Sim 1 which I played for about 1/2 Hour then uninstalled and gave it to my Father in Law. Ranks along side Flight Sim 2002 (which I've also got) for most boring game ever.

Soz.

Shush! Actually, you have to open and close the doors at the station! ;c) *pokes out tongue* Or something.

:cD Whatever that means...

If the trains had guns then maybe I'd be interested, but the prospect of getting to drive a train down a long, winding track doesn't exactly sound like the adrenaline fueled experience I'd look for in a game.

And no, I'm not insulting anyone's taste in games here, just pointing out that I don't happen to enjoy the world of realistic train simulators.

No, you have to take peoples tickets too. :D

Nah, only kidding, I'm sure it's pretty good. But after you've driven every train down every track, and put a delorean in front of it and made it go forward in time, how much fun can you have?

Don't be such a tart. Just because I like games that you don't. It's more then just going forwards and backwards. Ignorant fool.

Train sim is cool. You can assign the keys so 'up' arrow makes you go forwards and the 'down' arrow stops you. Since you on tracks, there's no steering. So all you have to worry about is keeping awake while you play =P

hello said the fat controller
