haha, not really. Took about 8 minutes. Games look so damn good at 1920x1200. Here's a sick web site for anyone who plays Sim City 4. http://www.rebel13.com/SimCity/Home.html

Eh, I'm not sure if the maps can be shared, I've never tried it. I've played all of the Sim City games from the original released back in 1989 to the Rush Hour expansion and Sim City 3000 is the worst. It has the BEST soundtrack, hell I bought the CD years ago, this was before they posted the music directly on their site (http://simcity.ea.com/coolstuff/sc3k_music/index.php) but the gameplay sucks. Sim City 4 fixed a lot of issues with the SC3K engine's "ice cubes", huge memory leaks, and the traffic modeling is much more realistic than it has ever been.

The physx technology seems pretty cool, but there are such a small amount of games that support it I can't justify spending $140 on one.
When I installed Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter it installs the physx app, and I was like "WTF is this?!" so I learned about it on the interspheres. The game was sort of fun to play with for an hour or so to see some of the technology that I work with every day (it's based off the FFW program), but I got bored of it quickly, the gameplay isn't that great. I mean come on, you CAN'T JUMP. I'm used to games like FarCry, Half-life, and STALKER.
