Ok, confession time; I occasionally like to play The Sims from EA. I got into it when it first released years and years ago and, because of it, I got into a bunch of other titles from them. Since they pushed back the release of Dragon’s age 3–much to my anger and others–I have to find other games to occupy my time. Thanks to GamersGate, I can now pick up some of the Classic EA titles for 50% off.

SimCity 4 puts you in command of your own city and lets you control everything. Choose to either let your Sims live in peace and give them plenty of jobs or you can destroy them with giant robots and earthquakes. Also, if you have Sims 2 lying around somewhere, you can import your characters from that game into SimCity and watch them flourish or fail.
Check out this video from CollegeHumor about the benefits of being a mayor of SimCity.
The whole Command and Conquer series is a Real-Time Simulator much like Starcraft or Warcraft, if you’ve played either title. You go on campaigns to advance your story line and each choice you make affects the outcome. It’s a battle in a super sci-fi universe and worth every penny.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I have a city that needs destroying.
