Don't you think there should be more games which relate to skills and occupations?

Yeah they should make a game where you push a broom around a warehouse, or work the checkout at a supermarket. Or even better, you sit at a desk doing some remedial task over and over for 8 hours. They could call it Sim YourLifeSucks.

Haha. Besides, why would you need occupational games? Wouldn't it be muc better if you just do them yourself?

If you are into communication and Networking, Cisco has a game called Cisco Myplanet : " Cisco’s Next Generation Networks (NGN) simulation game puts you in the shoes of a service provider CEO. Manage your business, transform your community, and guide citizens into the Connected Life filled with the wonders of visual networking."

Its really entertaining as it takes you back to old telco technology to the new era.

Can SIMS be considered as an occupational game?

What would be considered occupational games? I have a couple games, Life Quest & My Life Story, where you have to go to school, work jobs, pay rent, etc. I like playing them on occasion but not all the time.

Really? I haven't tried those before.
How about Harvest Moon?
