For Sim City newbies:

Sim City is...

Pros: Nice graphics, cool music, more detail, tried and true mechanics
Cons: Frustrating at times, not much new here, crash-prone

OK, I admit it. I'm a Sim City junkie. Ever since Will Wright designed the first one back in 1990 (has it REALLY been that long?!) I've been basically hooked. For those of you living under a rock for the past 13 years, the goal of Sim City has been...

Pros: Awesome Graphics,realism
Cons: Resource heavy,way too complicated

Pros: Great gameplay, ongoing, can import your sims from the sims, you have total control.
Cons: Can be a bit complex in the beginning.

Pros: Finally a fresh approach to city building, great graphics, import your sims
Cons: all cons are fixed with the "Deluxe" package that includes the Rush Hour addition.

I loved SimCity. It created (and set the standard for) city-building simulations. I loved SimCity 2000. It added a level of complexity and scope that was welcome and engaging. They were both excellent games, and they represented the old Maxis very, very ...

Pros: Great graphics, terraforming tools, day/night and disasters.
Cons: Buggy, slow, far too difficult to get in to compared to previous versions.

You can tell after a couple of hours of trying to play SimCity4 that Maxis have signed a deal with the devil, and sold out to the mighty EA. Gone is the polished, bug-free, enjoyable gameplay and great performance of previous SimCity titles. In comes the...

Pros: Excellent graphics, nice sound, feels like you're controlling a real city.
Cons: Can be hard on even the best machines, significantly more difficult than the previous ones.

Well, this is my first review for 2003, and let me say I couldn't have picked a better item to write it on. SimCity 4 is excellent. The nice...

Pros: Looks great, more in-depth, better terrain, fun.
Cons: Hard in the beginning, certain features from previous versions missing. May run slow without patches.

SimCity 4 is Maxis' latest addition to the popular SimCity line of games, and it's still showing pro ...

Pros: Very cool graphics and sounds
Cons: Took awhile to figure out, hard- but get Rush Hour and that will go away.

I bought Sim City 4 back in March because I thought it looked like a cool way to break in my brand new computer. I took it home and booted it up, and immediately marveled at the awesome graphics and music. It loaded quickly and easily and I had no troub ...

Pros: New elements for the series, integrates with The Sims, looks great
Cons: Missing features (scenarios and multiplayer), almost not SimCity, hardware issues

Pros: Seriously improved terraforming tools.
Cons: Excessively slow on fast machine; few improvements overall; too many to list.

Pros: Incredibly detailed. decent graphics
Cons: VERY BUGGY. Too slow to be really pleasant. inadequate feedback in UI no undo key.

About SimCity. Its an interesting concept. A real time strategy game without any fighting. The premise is that you are the mayor of a new city. You decide the shape and size of the city. You zone areas for certain uses and you build basic...

Pros: great graphics, very detailed
Cons: causes slow down on slower machines

its been 4 years since sim city 3000 came out, and i thought that was the sim city to top all sim City's. but i was so wrong. Sim City 4 is by far the greatest maxis / EA games product yet.

Gameplay

My favorite innovation to the...

Pros: Way better graphics, nicer buildings, and many more cool options.
Cons: Really difficult to build a great city!

I had Sim City 2000 on my computer for a long time, so I decided to get a newer version: Sim City 4. ...
