I mentioned above that the game -- Pen & Teller: Smoke and Mirrors, not just "Desert Bus" -- was unreleased, but that doesn't mean no one ever had their hands on a copy. Someone, somewhere, bless them, must have kept their pre-release or demo disc because now, as luck would have it, the game is now available for free, illegal download. Everything you need to know, including links to the Bittorrent & GENS emulator can be found.... wait for iiit... here. But you didn't get it from me. Or, if you don't want to play, screenshots & a review can be found at the SomethingAwful forums here. Don't say I didn't warn ya.
Also just in, Penn talks about the game in detail in his podcast on March 1st. Look for "Pen & Teller's Real Life Games" on the list. Game stuff starts at the 3:50 minute mark. He doesn't sound too concerned about the game being downloaded so I don't feel guilty about it just yet.
Now before you all rush to download the game & start playing "Desert Bus," I have plans for this weekend. I'd like to finally get hacking on that back room of mine & this will involve some serious disorganization before I can get things sorted out. I would like some help & I am willing to pay for it. I just need someone to come over and help move stuff around while I sort through the waist-deep pile of boxes cluttering what will eventually become my spare bedroom. Basically you'd just have to be patient while I rooted around deciding what to keep, & move stuff for me either to piles designated for trash or charitable donations. Anyone who helps will get first dibs on anything I'm getting rid of (my trash could be your treasure!) & after I've had enough sorting I'll make it worth your while by taking you out to dinner & maybe a movie or something that evening. Sound good? I'm free both Saturday & Sunday. Just email me or leave a comment here. We're open all night.
Speaking of night, I should probably get to doing those night-y type things like
