Whatever happened to that brilliant idea we came up with here? I was thinking about maybe attempting to make a game such as that, in my attempts to learn PHP. Would probably take a good year, before I'd release it, but I'd know some PHP.

Rats. I thought this was going to be about a data center for the Sims.

I don't like Maxis.... they keep releasing these miniscule updates for The Sims and slapping a 50 dollar price on them.

Good idea, however that is to "direct" for maxis. Meaning it focuses on one area/interest.
I wish it would happen though :D

I remember that, was over a year ago I think though, I couldnt find anything in a search.
Dont think anyone ever tried to start on it though.

I think it would be cool if someone came up with an online game like that, similar to how Gang Wars (http://www.gang-wars.com) works. That is a kinda fun game, and it is all text/strategy based. I bet something similar could be done. Although I don't know enough php or have time to do it :D
