Remember Microsoft Train Simulator? The simulator of a train. The awesome thrill of moving fowards. Or backwards.
Well, hold onto your anoraks my little pointdexters, because papa got a brand new bag....ready?
How's about......*drumroll*....Bbrrrrrrrrrr
Bridge Simulator.
I kid you not.
Here's the blurb from the website:
"Pontifex II is the official sequel to Pontifex.
In Pontifex II you design and build bridges. Once your bridge
design is completed the bridge is tested by trains and other
and other vehicles traveling across it As you watch, the
vehicles will either pass over safely or plummets into the river
below depending on your design. Pontifex II uses complex
physics which allows for many different types of bridges to be
built and tested. The 3D graphics engine allows you to view
your bridge from any angle including a first-person train view.
It also includes a level editor with
which you can create your own levels to trade with other people"
Ooooo! Trade bridges with other people! Will the excitement never end?
A bridge simulator.
*slams head on desk*
Bridges - when trains are just too exciting.

Talking of simulators, I have to get in one on Monday because I don't have a provisional licence to drive a real car yet.
Thanks, I needed a laugh today.
Can you build a bridge between a really poor country and a really rich country, fill a train or lorry full of orphans from the poor country and promise to take them to the promised land across the bridge, where they will be able to feast on succulent boar and drink fine wines, then when the vehicle is halfway across the bridge blow it up and watch them all plummet to their doom, whilst the computer intones "The grass is always greener on the other side suckers, and by the way this bridge was a poor example of structural engineering"?
Can you huh, huh?
Can you huh, huh?
It's not.
It's cutting edge!!!1!!
A bridge simulator!!11
Yeah, I'd take it back with graphics like those "Excuse me, this bridge simulator has rubbish graphics, it's no fun"
"Shut up you virgin"
"...*sobs*...."

Hmmmm, are you sure this isn't an old Atari game? It looks bloody awful.
Look at the screens:

Sounds better than train simulator, at least you can kill people through your own incompetence.
