I'm wondering if maybe the copying seems so obvious because the Sims doesn't really represent a genre of its own. How do you make a family/social simulator without looking like you're copying the Sims?

Maybe Id Software should have sued 3D Realms for Duke Nukem 3D back in 199x.

Graphics, physics and (almost) storytelling have advanced to beautiful points in video games. As this video kind of implies, AI is the lagging technology right now. I can't wait until EDI controls the bad guys in my video games.

I hope "much more" is talking about single player content. Sure, I expect a few more multiplayer packs, but ME single player expansions would be INFINITELY more valuable.
