I will be buying the special edition. I hated 2000 and 3000. But the first sim city on SNES and sim city 4 were badass. I'm pretty sure my social life died from these games... and Civiliazation... and counter strike... and Battlefield... and Ceaser III... and GTA... and Roller Coaster Tycoon... and Railroad Tycoon... Can't forget SW X-Wing, Tie Fighter, Rebellion, Jedi outcast, Jedi Academy, Battlefront...

The headline is the best part:

Gizmodo: Malfunctioning Cake Ruins Party and Spews Liquor All Over Oil Tycoons.

To be fair yet unpoetic, there's at least one tycoon i can think of and probably a lot more that came from broken homes, families, communities, etc. Alan Sugar for example.

But either way, they have been given protection by the country, permission to go wherever they like within that country, safety from strangers, and countless other things during their entire life. The cars they bought and the fuel they put in them were all a part of the system run by the country. You pay your due. Besides all else it's just good business sense. The richer the country is, the better off everyone is; business improves. No one's buying anything now we're in a recession, and that's cos certain people got too obsessed with giving less back. And that goes not just for paying tax, but little things like when the government raises a duty on something, companies make the consumer pay for it. Despite posting billions and billions of profit, the price of the product absolutely HAS to go up 5p to pay for the increase on duty. Or if there's a shortage - price goes up, never comes down yet presumably the shortage doesn't last forever.

I'm not being naive; i know that's how the world works, but if nations and huge corporations and banks can't work together, help each other out and share the benefits (let alone obey the law) then how on earth can they expect average people to do the same in society?

Props to futurama for provoking thoughts though, eh?

The screaming reminds me of my Rollercoaster Tycoon playing days.

I'm pretty sure the leftover good guys in "There Will Be Blood" (there will be), is his son, H.W., who is still planning to be a future oil tycoon himself... Thanks Fox.

Looks like a great coaster. I've only ever seen that type in Rollercoaster Tycoon.

Nice fail trombone at the end.

Though this aspect is not covered in the game, I now want to go play Railroad Tycoon.


Well the original did show trains crashing into each other, and off bridges. Not the same, but oh so awesome.

I never built wooden bridges if I could help it to avoid the scenario of a train falling into off the washed out bridge (because you were too cheap to install signal towers to HOLD all traffic)... except that one time when I really wanted to see the cutscene.

Also, this is a fantastic bit of background music to drown out whatever "meh" they had going on.
(Seriously sifting this up in response... and because I like it, of course.)
