The Sims can burn and die. Give the Sims some guns and bad attitudes and then we might have something.

Cutesy wootsy games give me a rash. It's not because they're typically nonviolent, I don't have a problem with that. Rather, because the artistic style is so often homogenous. It's like if it isn't gonna be violent, it has to be Sesame Street, and the same kind of Sesame Street that everyone else does. Don't get me wrong, I love Sesame Street, but not all the bloody time! It's like some a.shole at Walmart decreed, "Thou Shalt Make Harmless, Innocuous, Inoffensive, Unthreatening, Dumbed Down Games."
