when you think about it, though, a lot of sims don't really rely on the keyboard that much....so it's just the mouse...which you could map to the analog...or do an air mouse setup (which is kinda what the wiimote is...sorta)...

to me, one of the biggest drawbacks historically to console sims is the relative low resolution of tvs...but that's not so much an issue with hdtvs.

360 needs support for Steel Battalion or a new game in that series.


Huge controllers FTW.

Upgrading to a good PC would could me at least 1500 dollars, so I'd really just like to see some simulations on the 360. They've moved other "PC genres" onto the 360 (FPS, RTS)...why not simulations???

Hmmm I can see them doing a decent SimCity on the 360/PS3, they have gottent the RTS controls almost perfect, so you never know.

However, you could build yourself a computer that could run any of the SimCity games and the Tycoon games for cheap.... $500 at most, and you could even play UT3 on it
