Mayor of Sim City
One day SimCompter One reported heavy traffic for the umpteenth time and I shut down Sim City for good. Haven’t been back since.
automaton had a different way of dealing with city complaints. Apparently his favourite thing to do was erect a massive city, let the complaints start flowing in, and then purposefully destroy his carefully crafted city with disasters. Godzilla, UFO, floods, automaton SMASH — and he smash good. His arms became animated as he told me this story. He used his fists to represent Godzilla and smashed the table (representing a city he created). “I taught those fuckers a lesson!” he exclaimed, proudly.
Come to think of it the story he told me about how he used to play Choplifter with his brother was eerily similar …
I believe I found a trend.
This is how I played SimCity 2000. Good times.
games are meant for doing everything you can’t do in real life but want to. SQUISHY SQUISHY
I heard rumours that the next SimCity will do away with manually-invoked city destruction.
there’s a sim city 2013 coming: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SimCity_%282013_video_game%29
i really want to play it now
Yea, that’s the one I’m referring to. Any truth to that rumour about not being able to destroy your city with monsters?
I don’t think that’s true. I saw a clickable tornado button on one of the trailers..
dude, use rail lines only. no traffic complaints, way less pollution. people will ask for roads, but it doesn’t take their happiness down very much.
lol, was going to post exactly this.
I love how not one, but two people have Sim City 2000 advice in 2012. My child self could have used this advice …
You have a management style similar to that of el presidente or maybe Kenneth Lay. If you haven’t already heard of it, you may want to check out the Tropico series.
