You know you've been playing too much SimCity 4 when you go to the town hall and are surprised to find that the mayor and advisors aren't llamas.

You know when you play too much L4D when you mistake a dog with the hunter.

What is with Maxis and it's Llamas anyways? I've been wondering what the story behind it is for years.

What is with Maxis and it's Llamas anyways? I've been wondering what the story behind it is for years.

I think I read somewhere it's something to do with a developer. IIRC, Jeff Minter or something. I don't know if he actually worked with Maxis or not. I think I also read that Will Wright's favourite animal was a llama, but I don't know which of these are true or not.

 

[Maniacal]

In other Maxis games Llamas are often referenced. SimCity 3000 has a lot of Llama named things, I forget exactly.

 

[aimeeandbeatles]

One of the speeds in quite a few games was Llama, and in SimCity 2K there was the Llama Dome (or something like that, a special building). And often llamas showed up in the newspapers. I think there was one or two in SimCity Classic, but I can't remember. Haven't played 3K enough to know. I also heard there's references in Spore but haven't played that.

Age of Empires II
You think you can destory a castle by slashing it with a sword.

You can, so long as its a mile-long sword that is a huge pillar that falls at the correct angle and force of gravity.

Or if its God's sword, but anyways...

You know you play too much Company of Heroes when you believe the Allies got their manpower and resources from captured German flagpoles.

Age of Empires II
You think you can destory a castle by slashing it with a sword.

As long as they haven't researched Murder Holes, you have enough people with swords and aren't playing multiplayer, you can.
