I was wondering if there was any webhosting games? If not I might be interested in making one.

I am talking PHP based.

ok, I found this thread: http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=30082&highlight=sim+datacenter

What im talking about is say you start off with a reseller account or something and gradually move up the scale to buying servers and even up to a fully upgraded datacenter. Any thoughts?

I'm not a web hosting company, but I'll play! Sounds like an interesting game to try... Otherwise, curiousity will kill me.

We should make a web hosting cartoon where like you have Timmy in a zebra like out fit (black and white stripes) with a bag of money and a theif-like hat running in and out of datacenters, w/ servers and things like that. Just funny stuff. I don't konw what i'm talking about.

I was thinking about doing the Sims datacenter game in Visual Basic using DirectX but I don't have much time for it.

I found a really good 3d Engine for Visual Basic if anyone is interested. Here it is.
