Crazy Bus is the representative of the 2004 video game/tech demo of the same name for the Sega Genesis, which is chiefly remembered for the massive quantities of ear-rape induced by its randomly generated music.
Bio[edit | edit source]
As already mentioned, Crazy Bus was never meant to be an actual game, but rather served as a slightly more elaborate test for the BASIC compiler and the sound driver of some guy from the SG demo scene. The "gameplay" revolves driving one of various Venezuelan-made buses from the left to the right side of the screen by pressing a button, and the graphics were so elaborate that immediate and acute eye cancer typically afflicted the player no more than one minute after startup.
Crazy Bus is best known and most notorious for the cacophony that plays in lieu of music during the main menu screen, which also (and perhaps mercifully) happens to be the only music track the game has.
In 8chanmania[edit | edit source]
Season 2[edit | edit source]
Crazy Bus debuted in 8chanmania XXXVIII, but instantly met its demise against the fellow heavy-weight Big Rig.
It's second coming during 8chanmania XLVI was slightly more successful, and saw the bus defeating conspiracy theorist Francis E. Dec (which probably makes it a Nazi Jewish Communist Gangster Bus), and also saw it running over Uncommon Time star Contralto 'Alto' Cantabile. The timetable of the bus only underwent a sudden change when it faced a certain Replica Soldier in the quarter finals, who actually managed to wrestle the damn thing into submission.
Continuing to improve its standings in 8chanmania XLIX, Crazy Bus ended Arino's challenge, sent Duty Stalker back to the Zone and put Pikachu Libre under the truck before finally stopping for Kunio in the semi-finals.
Season 3[edit | edit source]
It's next drive was in 8chanmania LXXII. The bus defied the attempts of Granny Crotony to add it to her inventory (i.e., stuff it into her bra - not kidding) and likewise brought a quick end to the work strike of the Bowling Elf from Elf Bowling. It did, alas, lose to Dr. Morbis in the Quarter Finals. As a neat little trick, some idiot put the entire soundtrack of Crazy Bus in the game as one of the characters voice file, resulting in a devastating amount of ear-rape when layer over layer of the same track was stacked upon each other during his fight against Granny Crotony. The issue mercifully was fixed in the break between the preliminaries and the Best of Sixteen.
To make things 110% more curayzhee, Crazy Bus teamed up with Big Rig for 8chanmania LXXVI. The two super-heavyweights easily defeated the Zoom Gas Duo and the Party Baby, but were not quite crazy enough to match the genocidal insanity of Luca Blight and Ugandan Knuckles one round later.
Trivia[edit | edit source]
- Despite not actually being a game, Crazy Bus is one of the few better-known titles to have been produced in Venezuela; the other exception being the point-and-click horror adventure game Scratches.
- This Crazy Bus is not to be confused with the the cartoon Crazy Bus seen in the children's cartoon Arthur. They're not the same bus, though the Crazy Bus song from Arthur has been known to play during matches.
