Penn&Teller's Smoke and Mirrors

Check my sig.

 

The EGM review I read about this said they actually did it, but they must have been working from an earlier build becasue they said you could get a C-clamp and keep the bus on the road.

Funny how you can remeber something you read in a magazine once over ten years ago.

 

LOL the bus trip sounds like an killer app for beer partys haha

 

i wonder if you could speed things up with an emulator such as gen, or something.:shrug:

 

I cant get the iso converted to PAL/EUR to play on my MCD2... Is there anyone who can help me? I already tried scdconv.

 

This made the news sort of:

Slashdot too... why did it take so long to hit the media? Or, why do they even care?

 

uh wait, did sega even pulisch the game at all? I thought it was someone else. But i was thinking, wouldnt that bus games cuased the sega cd to burn out alot faster after all that use.

 

It wasn't released? Weird, I had this game (probably still do, I'll have to go home and dig through my old Sega CD games) way back in the day.


Actually, I often tell people about how stupid it was, and how me and some friends dedicated an entire Saturday (I was in middle school at the time I think, or junior high) to beating that damn Desert Bus game. Though we did not take the offer to make the trip back. Funny, I didn't realize it was something to be treasured or that people were actually looking for it, I just figured it was a shitty game that nobody knew about (and for a good reason!).


At any rate, next time I go home for holidays or something I'll dig it up, take pics, etc.

 

you mean, commercial version? :110:

 

Downloaded this last night via BT (486kbps !!). I comes on 2 discs and can honestly see why it never got released. Graphically it looks poor with most of the art being made from that horrid grain style that many western designers used. Pen & Teller themselves are ok but the game is just annoyingly dull. Still well worth keeping hole of if you're in to collecting unreleased stuff but we all know that if this was released it would belong in the big pile of Mega CD crap :lol:

Its disc only. Given how bad it was I never really bothered looking for a "complete" copy. If I recall correctly my Grandad gave it to me for Christmas along with a box full of other Sega CD games (this was towards the end of the Sega CD's life, when all the games were in bargain bins).

 

Why do we have an Unreleased Games forum if threads about unreleased games are posted here?

 

it has to do with the fact, and what has caused so many to have sub sections, that this was brought up due to an intervirew with pen recently, as such its done in the rare section. Or the most likely answer

is that the person who made this post thought that this might be a rare game that is a beta, belive me off topic and general sometimes blur together.

 

Thread moved to Unreleased section of the board.

 

Do you have stairs in your house?.

 

Who? Me? No, I don't have stairs in my house. It's a 1 floor house.

I believe that was a SomethingAwful joke. Someone here said that TheRedEye was a member of the SomethingAwful forums, so I assume that's why he was asking.

(I never understood the joke, as I'm not a member, so could someone explain it to me?)

 

Do a google for "space robots stairs" there's a farily ammusing flash animation for it.

"We are the space robots. We are here to protect you. We are here to protect you from the terrable secrets of space..."

 

Id love to see the comments they put in the code when they were writing it

'LoL, I wonder who will actually play this shit
