bloodandhedonism:

You mean by Maxis? (And I guess EA now.) 

I’ve only ever played the SimCity series (up to and including 4) and the first Sims game, so I can’t comment on the others, but many of them look like they that classic 90s computer game vibe to them, which is always appreciated. OTOH it seems like most of them weren’t that great either. Maxis’s history pre-EA was pretty wild, look it up sometime.

Otherwise, uh, hmm. I was one of the few people in the world to prefer SimCity to the Sims, judging from the attention and sales records the latter series received. 

SimFarm was kinda crap in endgame but underrated overall

SimEarth was not as deep as SimCity which it was pitched on par with, and a little ‘70s goofy but in that earnest optimistic way personal computers came out of

SimCopter was a cash-in

SimAnt was fuckin’ solid

SimTower was a great way to spend 2 hours in the summer
