Did you know that the idea for The Sims, the original life-simulation computer game, is believed to be based on the experience of its creator Will Wright? His house was destroyed in 1991 in a firestorm and his family had to move and start afresh.
The first game of this franchise was released on February 4, 2000 and as of February 2005 it has shipped 16 million copies worldwide which made it the best-selling PC game in history! Nine years from devastation to what appears to be salvation! Congratulations Will.
