When the Sims 2 was first announced back when I still had trouble growing a moustache and my voice wavered tentatively between alto and baritone. I was very excited about the change, it was so revolutionary.

Let's see why:

1. Complete 3D graphics. Which frankly, still look superb all these years later.

2. DNA, life stages, old age, death. Life stages, transition from one age to another.

3. Aspirations, fear, career opportunities, wants. Personality...

I've been reading a lot lately of the death of PC Gaming, the dirty assassin Piracy has crept up behind the king and stabbed him in the painful bits.

I have come to the conclusion that the average sims fan is a girl of between 14-17 years of age. They play lots of families and don't like ugly sims.

All of this added together means I will never see my optimum sims game, because I'm pretty much the opposite. That said, I'll probably enjoy...

I was perusing the sims earlier and life in general. I don't know why, it just seems that doing something a bit philosophical would give my blog an air of importance that philosophy does tend to lend to things that are as banal as blogs are.


Now I've decided I can't even be bothered to say anything, because none of you are even going to read it. So this is me, signing out, off on another mission over Italy.
