Quand on rentre du travail, bien souvent, on a envie de se vider la tête en lançant un jeu vidéo. Pourtant, une proportion des joueurs relance… un autre travail. Euro Truck Simulator, Farming Simulator, PowerWash Simulator ou Supermarket Simulator, tous ces simulateurs de petits boulots fleurissent à...

It was to be a true simulation like The Sims, not just of daily life, but of the history of all life—life as everything from a unicellular amoeba to a spacefaring alien of my own design, all realized in exacting detail...

And it's possible that even bigger things could happen: A new report from The Information (via Reuters) says Microsoft is looking to shift its focus and resources to its biggest games, while simultaneously mulli
