What games feature interesting architecture ?
I am looking for PC / video game titles that have realistic (or at least interesting) level design inspired by real world architecture. For example Rainbow Six had a replica of the LA convention center as well as good looking houses and office buildings. Thief 2 had mansions in an Art Deco style.
Many other titles only feature generic factory or urban settings that don't stand out, which is why I am looking for your recommendations.
I should add that I was looking for ready made level architecture, not something that you have to provide on your own as is the case with the Sims.
You can do a lot in the Sims 2. Beyond that there really is not many games that do this. In Sims 2 you can go to other sites and download add ons that give you better custom and creative designs and ideas to do for houses. Someone once made a gigantic Atlantis building that looked very nice and all that. Looked just like a palace and everything. Sims 2 is your best bet until Sims 3 comes out, but that would be after Spore comes out first, though.

French cast Brass Chandelier leaf?
http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/danrubin/detail?.dir=/3fc4re2&.dnm=4975re2.jpg
Please look at this pic. Do you know who made it? Can you identify what style of brass chandelier it is? I am trying to restore it, any advice about restoring this type of brass ... it is at least 40 years old and weighs over 50 pounds.
Very difficult to tell who manufactured your beautiful chandelier without looking at it close up. I did look it up in my design book and because of the acathus leaf design, I believe it to be in the Louis XVI Travail Francais design. The style often used the leaf design to accent furniture legs, arms on chandeliers and to stylize artistically. That being said, I'm not certain whether I would recommend doing anything to the brass. Patina is what makes these vintage pieces valuable. Other than re-wiring it, perhaps adding some shade to the top which is how they are usually seen, I would merely clean and polish the metal. I would not use the cream type of cleaner, either, as you will create a nightmare for yourself trying to get it out of the crevices.
