SimCity 4
I've spent most of my night playing SimCity 4. I had heard that it was unplayable slow, even on fast hardware. I have to disagree. My dual 867 G4 handles the game with ease, even with most of the graphic options on.
I like this version much better than the last. I especially like being able to connect the cities you build together. It's kind of like building your own state. You can also track individual citizens now, but I'm not sure I will use it that much.
My whole weekend will now be spent in front of the computer now, although it probably would have been anyway.
Little Rascal
Erica and I saw what we thought was the funniest damn thing in the world. There was this old man driving a Rascal down the middle of the street, as if it was car. This wasn't some side street either. It was at the corner of Ashland and Addison, if you know Chicago you know it's incredibly busy.
I said we thought it was funny because Josh and Steve claim that this is a common sight. I've never seen it though, and it was incredibly funny. Dangerous, but funny.
