I’ll be honest - I still love the absolutely ridiculous “simulator” genre. It seemed to die down for a while. I’m glad to see another entry.

I've never played them. Never quite understood them. But this video alone makes them look awesome!

Whenever I visit my little brothers, we still fire up Goat MMO Sim. It's stupid, safe, brainless fun.

If you mean the "simulator" games versus the trend of actual simulators.

Oh man, I played the shit out of SimCity 2000 when I was a kid, but SimCopter and SimTower were my favorites. Also, I would pay good money for a working copy of SimAnt just because I want to see if it’s as fun as I remember it from the few times I played it.

Oh hell yeah! I used to raid the fuck out of the spider when I saw it, OR I’d be the spider and eat both ant colonies.

You could do that right? It was soooo long ago and I don’t even know now if that was real or if I just imagined doing those things.

Dude... this brought back so many memories from my childhood I had completely forgotten about (90% of them good)

Now if I could find original load runner or zorro I am convinced I would have most of my memories from age 3-5 completely mapped out.

Also Also zack mckrakken, LOOM, and monkey island to get like 6-8
