Coolest Thing On The Internets Of The Day

This thing is really cool. The Falling Sand Game. It's reminds me of Sim City, if you remember that old computer game.

We could use some of these things in Iraq to keep those neanderthals in line.

You'll see what I mean between 01:30 and 03:00.


Yes, I had Sim City on the SNES back in the day and half of those things Scof mentioned. It was okay, but I prefer the Civilization or Rise of Nations strategy games over Nagin simulators.

That's one weird game, I loved Sims though, there\s something about old computer games you don't see these days anymore... something beyond the crappy graphics and undeveloped sound effects, something beautiful.

I have to admire hand done spam. Should i leave it or ban it?

Posted by: annika on Sep. 29, 2006

Bannika!

I'm noticing it more at other sites as well.

I still have a version of SimCity on my computer. Haven't played it in months, though.
