Take a look at the coolest bus in town - the GamerBus. It is filled with Xbox 360's which are all linked up and displays on a Phillips LCD TV. The bus running Virgina Beach costs around $150 on the weekend and $25 less during the week.

Buses for the most part are lame (especially here in New York), but pack one with a ton of Xbox 360s and a few HDTVs and you've got my full attention. The GamerBus is a 37-foot RV that lets you and a bunch of friends duke it out via its 16 System-Linked Xbox 360s. Each of the 16 game stations is hooked up to a 23-inch Philips LCD making it dead simple to play against or with your friends. The bus only services the Virginia Beach area and charges $150/hour (Fri-Sun) and $125/hour (Mon-Thurs). Not a bad way to kill some time. Now all I need are some friends.

Not much of a problem, since you'd appear to be sitting sideways, with no reference point for your movements. Most people would pay for an hour, get off the bus after 10 minutes thanks to motion sickness, and then have to pay for another bus or cab to get them from wherever they got off the bus at. (What, you'd pay $2.50 a minute to stand up and stare out the front window? :D )

You've got a point. If it was going through Vagina Beach, ticket sales for the bus would be through the roof. :D

Split $150 16 ways and it's not that bad, a bit over $9 each, you'd easily spend that in an arcade in an hour.
