All right, I was in 3 multimedia stores and 2 "dedicated" game stores.
I was looking for an older classic of the space sim/combat/strategy genre:
Homeworld 2. (there are two beautiful BSG and B5 mods out )
It is no longer in stores... the guy in the game store did not even know Homeworld
but what have I found?
The Farm Simulator
The Bus Simulator
The Communal Carbage Collection Simulator
I understand Train Sim and Sims for ships as well as Flight Sim, of course (I play all three of these), but a simulator that enables you to drive the dump truck and collect carbage? A simulator that puts you into the position to milk cows and drive tractors?
The Bus Simulator is kind of understandable, too.... I guess.
Additionaly: Hundreds of bad-made FPS and stupid RTS games about World War II.... guys... about 5.000 years of documented history and you can come up with ideas from 1939 to 1945 only?
There are only a few simulations that really make you feel like in the skin of a modern world soldier, namely the aging Operation Flashpoint, Armed Assault, Full Spectrum Warrior and of course Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter...
(Okay, okay, these are already quite a lot!!)
So, in your opinion what games do belong into the Game Trash Bin?
