Sim City is now GPL'd

When I first saw Sim City back in the 80s I thought it was very unrealistic. Then I visited San Jose.

having spent far too many happy hours playing each iteration of the sim city series (through #4), i can say the game has gotten way more realistic.

sim city 4, especially, has a bunch of skyscrapers from san francisco that you'll get in your cities if you do a decent job of zoning commercial areas.

there's a certain joy to walking around downtown san francisco and seeing the life-size versions.

lol... so true. Maybe one of those big "natural disasters" like a earthquake will hit it, and it will be rebuild to something more decent.

Earthquakes, fires, floods and massive storms...

And that's only what we've had in San Jose this year.

I opt for the space monster (sim city 2000).
