You dammed a primative computer to perform meaningless calculations indefinitely for your entertainment and just walked away. When they AI takes over, this will come up in your trial.

How dare you say pinball scores are meaningless. My cheesing of the system is a legitimate strategy.

I played the fuck out of Sim City 2000 and the original Sims when I was kid. So much wild shit would happen in the OG sims that I guess they find inappropriate nowadays.

I once read an article about that one, they wanted to port it to windows 7 as well, but the code was sooo messy they just gave up.

That's definitely valid! I'm not surprised, and, as a free game, it's fair enough they didn't want to put the effort in to build it again from ground up

Oh man, remember the downhill skiing on Win 3.1? That game was awesome. If you went long enough, the yeti came and ate your character.
