That guy was such a dick.

I just let the roads deteriorate and then rebuild them manually. I imagine that took more money in the long run tho.

When I realized I could load my cities up in Sim Copter it about blew my mind.

Loved me some SimAnt, SimFarm, and SimEarth.

Don't forget streets of Sim City that let you drive around too

There was nothing more completely mindblowing than the fact that you could fly through your Sim City 2000 cities in Sim Copter.

Sim Copter was a buggy mess of a game, but the bugs didn't deter me from playing. I never played Streets of Sim City. I remember hearing about it, but I never found a copy to buy.

You weren't missing much. I remember getting the three pack: Sim City, Sim Copter, and Streets of Sim City and the latter was the one my family played the least. The scenarios were boring but also insanely hard because of performance issues. Simcopter was the one I played the most because of how much of a blast it was and it was actually possible to progress in the game without using cheats.

I heard about this back when the game was new, but I never knew exactly how to trigger it (this was before I was online) and I kind of assumed it was a urban legend.

You need a certain number of arcologies and reach a certain year on the calendar. There was a scenario that was already set up to get this to happen you could load up, though.

[–] 50MYT@aussie.zone 5 points 2 years ago

Yes!

I was so upset the first time I triggered it. All those weeks building the one map for it to do that. I didn't realize what it meant haha

What's going on in this image I don't understand?
