Here's what Sherlock and Watson looked like in Frogwares' Crimes & Punishments, the greatest detective video game ever made: What the Heck Is Going On With Sexy Sherlock? If so, please get ahold of me at or reach me on Twitter at won't rest until I find photographic evidence of this pile of 10-50 floppies. And I remembered.ĭid anyone else out there have this edition?ĭid anyone reading this work at Maxis in the 90s? Which is why I'm absolutely certain I held this oddball version of SimCity 2000 in my hands. Even the most mundane process was absolutely fascinating.
A computer seemed like an impossible luxury at the time. Of course I wanted to play the game, but witnessing the installation was a wonder in itself. So many floppies that by the time the game was finally installed and ready to play my mom pulled up to take me home.
So many that we made a stack as the game installed, which became two stacks when it seemed the tower was about to tip over. It's just that there were, well, a lot of said floppies.

The floppies had crisp professionally designed labels with designations like Disk 1 and Disk 2 and perhaps Disk 28 cleanly printed on them in full color. I vividly recall sitting there at my friend's house, gawking at the box and its contents like a treasure chest. This Special Edition came on a CD (Wow, the future of interactive entertainment!) but perhaps it was also released on floppies? The ISO is 150MB, so that would come out to something like one hundred high density 3.5" disks. It included several expansions and even an intro video. In 1995 Maxis released SimCity 2000 Special Edition. The original SimCity 2000 box came with two floppies. Yet there's no record whatsoever that this version of the game existed.

Are you aware of a SimCity 2000 release that came on A LOT OF FLOPPIES? As in, ten or more 3.5" disks? Because I distinctly remember spending the better part of an afternoon watching my friend install it in the mid 90s.
