In a world of faster, harder, bloodier and bolder games, Densha De Go is a game that urges you to, well, stop. Densha De Go is a very different type of game. You drive a train!
Getting your train to the right speeds without tossing your passengers around too much is a good challenge, to say the least. With excellent visuals and simple controls, this game takes actual video information from real train lines in Japan and let's you become the train engineer. For some, this may sound like a huge chore, but you are so wrong.
Trying to stop your train from 75 km/h in just a few hundred feet is a mighty ordeal. Forget trying to jump and shoot while strafing in a effort to save millions of lives - cute ladies are trying to get to school or work on time and it's up to you to get that done! Are you up to it?
While not original by any means, it's definitely a blast of an import. Pick up a copy from your local or online retailer and see how well you can STOP.

Awesome stuff.. waiting for mine to arrive .. having worked on VR Centre Train Sims.. its awesome to see something available in a handheld!! Will have to show the Sydac guys this..
Yeah. I thought the same when doing our first Sim for NSW Rail.. How hard can it be to drive a train.. hehe woops. Took me 20 mins to figure out how to get all the brakes off.. and clutches engaged.. and such.. it turns out to be quite interesting. Im hoping this is something similar. I'd love to convince the train sim trainers to move to a portable 'on site' solution
