If the new generation of video games are too exciting for you, get yourself a copy of “Desert Bus,” widely recognized as the most boring video game of all time. Desert Bus involves driving a bus from Las Vegas, Nevada to Tucson, Arizona in real time at a maximum speed of 45 mph, for a one way journey of eight hours. The bus contains no passengers, the desert contains no scenery, and if you don’t steer the bus properly it will veer off the road and be towed back to Tucson, also in real time. A successful trip to Las Vegas will score you a single point and the option of making the return trip for another point. According to masochists who have successfully completed the mission, the only excitement in the game comes at the five hour mark when a bug splats on the front windshield of the bus. (Wikipedia.org)
