Someone's in Calgary or Edmonton...

 

[bit.trip void]

Somebody can figure stuff like that out. :3

Funny that an American would know that :P XD (sorry just didn't expect that).

Funnily enough though, the south east part of BC is also in the Mountain Time zone, or I could also be in the Northwest territories. XD

I'm a map geek at my core... and it just so happens that an unusually high proportion of Sim City players who are active on fansites have lived in one of those two cities in the past five years.

Haha interesting. XD

My sister has played Sims in the past funnily enough too, though she didn't use websites or anything.

I'm not to bad at geography either, though I could probably be better.

 

[donavannj]

The Sims and Sim City are functionally different games... the former's a virtual dollhouse and the latter's a virtual city.

 

[Taemin]

Omg, Siiiims.. I've always wanted to play one of those games, and to this day I still haven't. xD

( Obligatory first day of year DCC2010 post 8D )


-lurk lurk-

 

[Feign]

Hmm meant the former. I've only played the latter. XD Both the 2000 version and the original (or the one right after the original, can't remember). It came with our computer in 95 anyway.

 

[donavannj]

I've played every Sim City for PC, and I've played The Sims 1 & 2. These kinds of games need new base games every five years or so just to make them more realistic.

 

[Feign]

Lol... yeah realism can be a bit annoying, though sending in monsters is fun. XD

I've tried playing The Sims as well, but end up getting bored from creating a family/house, and end up trapping them all in.

 

[donavannj]

I like toying with family trees... I don't know why... I just do.

But I've usually get bored with families pretty quickly and go play another game.

Designing houses is fun, though.

 

[Jack O'Neill]

I only played the first Sims game; I've yet to play any of the SimCity games.

 

[donavannj]

I was hopelessly addicted to those two games for quite a while between 2002 and 2008.

 

[Feign]

Lets see if I can remember my PC phases of gaming:

- Atomic Bomberman
- Enter the Matrix
- Halo
- Path of Neo
- Devil May Cry 4

 

[.little monster]

I love the SimCity game for the iTouch. It's so addicting. :P

Already near 100 posts. @_@

 

[donavannj]

I think my PC gaming history went:
- Some random kids games I had.
- Sim City 2000
- Moto Racer
- Civilization II
- Age of Empires II
- Sim City 3000
- Roller Coaster Tycoon
- Civilization III
- Empire Earth
- The Sims
- Sim City 4
- The Sims 2
- Empire Earth 2
- More SC4 & TS2
- Civilization IV
- More Civ, Sim City, and Sims
- Nothing

Mostly Civ IV, SC4, and TS2 between 2005 and 2008.

 

[Feign]

Lol, yeah I've played a lot more than I showed above, the ones listed are ones I'd play for a long amount of time.

 

[donavannj]

I was 6 when my addiction to PC games started... so I had plenty of time. My dad was the one who introduced me to the RTS games. And they got me Sim City because I was always interested in maps. Probably because I knew most maps were of roads, and I liked my toy cars at the time.

 

[Feign]

Lol yeah... I was like 6 years old when introduced to the old school game boy... XD

Oh well. XD

Funnily enough, I got my first consul about half a year ago - an x box 360, cause otherwise it has been PC and all generations of Gameboy, save for generations 2 and 3 of Pokemon as well.
