The Nerd in “Unfinished Business”

The Nerd

This is the game. You drive, drive, and drive. There's nothing out there, except for road and sand. Occasionally, there's a rock, or a sign. But that's it. There's no passengers to interact with, no music on the radio, nothing to keep you occupied, the road never turns, there's no other vehicles, and there's absolutely nothing. You can open the door with the B button. Basically, it makes a sound effect. That's a little something you can do to entertain yourself. [presses the B button as the bus opens the door] The bus can't go any faster than 45 miles per hour. I don't know why. Maybe Dennis Hopper has a bomb on it or something, so, there's no hope of speeding up this test of human attention span. So, how long is this trip? It's 360 miles to Las Vegas; at 45 miles per hour, that would mean eight hours. [his jaw drops open] THIS IS A FUCKING EIGHT-HOUR GAME! Whoever needs to take a road trip when you can simulate the whole experience in real-time on your Sega CD! [chuckles sarcastically] Aw, what were they thinking?!
