Pinoy beats Sim City
A 22-year-old Filipino architecture student “beat” Sim City, the difficult but very popular computer simulation game. Using the geometry of the Buddhist “Wheel of Life and Death”, Vicente Ocasla designed a totalitarian city-state populated by 6 million Sims that will last 50,000 in-game years. Watch the video he posted on YouTube and decide whether you want to live in Magnasanti.

But but but… You can’t win SimCity! Have I just been doing it wrong the past fifteen years?
Ah, well, at least if we need plans for a real Airstrip One, we know where to look.
