Inside Mac Games Celebrates 1000th Sims Article

Inside Mac Games is celebrating its 1000th article written about the popular game series The Sims.

"It's been really exciting," said Ian Beck, Editor-in-Chief of IMG. "News about The Sims makes up about 15% of our articles posted."

The Mac is not known for its selection of games but Aspyr Media has been diligent in its efforts to bring The Sims to the Apple platform.

"We think Apple computers are perfect for life simulators," said Michael Rogers, President of Aspyr Media. "Life and mech simulators."

While there aren't many games for Apple computers, Beck still sees a need for his website.

"I know it's kind of weird. We might as well just become a Sims fan site. Although, lately we've been writing a lot about Civilization IV. In fact, we're almost close to 1000 articles there too."

The Sims has 1000 articles written about it but it isn't the most reported-on game on IMG. World of Warcraft has over 32,000 previews alone. Its news articles have their own server said Beck.

"WoW is basically our money maker. Thank God Blizzard put that out for us. Who knows if we would've even reached the 1000th milestone without WoW. Again, thanks Blizzard."
