SimCity goes open source

[Power666]

While there have been plenty of open source alternatives to SimCity out there, there is always the faithful original. EA has finally released the source code as part of the deal to get SimCity into the One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) project. Though under the terms of the source code license, it has been renamed to Metropolis as EA wants to keep the SimCity name.

It's a really weird way of coding a game. There's some Python, some Tckl, some C++, and god knows what else.
