Anarchy and Fascism in Alphaville
I have been a big fan of Sim City for 15-ish years. I love it! When "The Sims" came out, I was intrigued and was given it as a present by my brother. After a week of playing around with it in my spare time, I was bored out of my socks. Just did nothing for me. When I see ads for all of the lovely new additions, I roll my eyes.
I had to post this article after reading it this morning because it's so shallow and so deep at the same time. No kidding that when you put horny, irresponsible teens in charge of society things are going to go nutty. Read HERE to see how nutty things have gotten and what the *coughASSHOLEScough* at EA are doing (not that I blame them for cracking down, just how they've handled the situation and the Sim franchise in general).
