Did you know? Video Game Pranks…

“A more controversial prank can be found in SimCopter, a 1996 Maxis title that lets players fly helicopter missions around the cities they create in SimCity 2000. Developer Jacques Servin secretly added speedo-clad male bimbos (Servin called them “himbos”) who would meander the city and passionately kiss on certain calendar dates. Servin cited unfavorable working conditions as an inspiration for the prank, and he was subsequently fired.”

Wow. I did not know this. All I can say is that I love discovering easter eggs and pranks in the games that I play. SimCopter was one I never could find.
