Well I'm not sure what games you are referring to.
If you are talking about business simulators (or games of the sort) I have to say I like them but (while they are usually open-ended) they have little replay value once you've figured everything out.
if you are talking about airplanes and such... it differs, some get boring after a few days, some after a month and some are addictive (but eventually repetitive all the same) in the last case I am thinking of space-sims.

What about going right back to the start.


Remember The Little Computer People?


That game probably started the whole 'simulation' trend. :bleh:

what was the description.. that they were the reason computers 'behaved' the way they do? because there are LCPs in your PC? LOL...
Simulations rock.. I stink at them though..

I had that game a few years ago on a 'Best Of C64 Games' (or something similar) pack for the pc. k:


I loved that game.


Don't know what happened to it though. Can't find it now.


EDIT - Your LCP is very shy. Once he moves into his new 'house', he will spend time exploring his new surroundings.

It was BRILLIANT!

Nothing wrong with Poland.

Stop giving our country a bad name by your necroposting, would you?

I like them, they take a long time though.
Its hard to get the quick thrill, but you get the pride and intelectual stimulation at the end that makes it worth while.
So yeah I like them... in moderation.
