&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;i&gt;It doesn’t tell you what to do when a crazed bomber plants a bomb under your bus that will explode if you drop below 50 mph. Then they could just rebadge the game as ‘Speed’.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Okay, that sentence &lt;em&gt;alone&lt;/em&gt; is more exciting than is healthy for someone who is struggling to learn how to cope with boredom. You seriously need to think more before you post these interesting bloody observations, Creature!

&lt;b&gt;The Creature said:&lt;/b&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;i&gt;I’m looking forward to the ‘Mission to Mars’ game where you sleep for three months before getting near Mars. It would be a bummer if you accidently depressurised the cabin and had to restart the game again…&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Okay, now we&#039;re talking. But let&#039;s take it a step further -- in the game you&#039;re actually playing a &lt;em&gt;simulation&lt;/em&gt; of a mission to mars, and it &lt;em&gt;still&lt;/em&gt; takes you 3 months to get there, and you &lt;em&gt;can&#039;t&lt;/em&gt; save it midgame, and when you get to the final level you discover that it&#039;s all been a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kobayashi_Maru&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Kobayashi Maru test&lt;/a&gt; {I think I just scored maximum bonus points for extreme nerdity...}, but no-one told you you had to hack the game&#039;s source files to have any chance of winning.

Aha ahahahahaha! Try to make that one interesting!
