Goodnight SimCity.

All things must come to an end.  Unfortunately for us, it's the game that we play each and every night.  I know I've blogged about it before so it comes as no surprise that because we love it, they discontinue it.

(My City)

(Jeff's City)



The sad part?  EA said the game is "too old" and is being replaced with more "current" games.  SimCity debuted just over 18 months ago.  If it's old...I'm ancient.  But in these times, if it makes it more than 6 months, it's old.  There is always something newer and better right around the corner.

I'm going to show my age when I say I miss the good 'ole days.  The ones where you fell in love with something and it lasted.  It took years for The Oregon Trail to become outdated.  Hunter and Will still play Sonic on Sega.  Pacman lasted a decade, for heavens sake!

So with a sad face and probably a tear or two from Jeff....we say Goodnight to SimCity.  Tomorrow it will be deleted from someones server to make room for something greater.  Too bad I won't be looking to see what it is.
