 Warning: This game can be habbit forming July 26, 2008
Before we were married, my husband got this as a Christmas gift. I watched him play it a few times & he made me try it. After just a few minutes, I was hooked. He made me a copy of the game, which I took home & would play for hours on end. At first glance, the game doesn't seem that interesting. But after you start building your city & see it start to grow & progress, it's hard to pull yourself away. It's pretty easy to get the hang of & the graphics are quite realistic. I am looking forward to trying the new edition of the game.
Happy with game and Amazon, not with AE July 16, 2008
As I received the product, it could not be installed as one of the files on the CD was damaged. I contacted AE and they never read my emails, finally after about 2 weeks going back and forth, they understood my concern and told me I needed a new CD.
I was very happy with Amazon. As soon as I contacted them, they shipped another one before I even shipped my copy back. I received the new one in 2 days
I love it. May 28, 2008
I played SimCity 2000 way back in the day, and decided to get back into mayorship after moving to NYC. Maxis as certainly advanced a lot in this version of the game. Lots more to take care of like garbage and high schools, but what I love working with the most is designing an efficient transit system, now with separate rails, subways, and monorails, plus a plethora of other options. And instead of in the previous game aiming for a general residential-goes-to-industrial/commercial route for mass transit, you can actually see where individual Sims live and work and make the best routes. My only complaint is it's sometimes a huge pain to actually lay out some transit elements like rail and highway. Messages like "this terrain is not valid" aren't too helpful in figuring out an alternate way. However, I would recommend this game to anyone who has thought "they should make a subway that goes like this..." or "why do they need a landfill here".
Best game May 7, 2008
Best game I ever played in my life. I built a city with 1,045,934. It's way better than societies, even if it's old i never seem to get tired of it. If there is a contest for best city I am going to win it sure enough. I recommend this game than societies. My video of my city will be soon at youtube.com.
Ign score:
Simcity 4: 9.2

Moderately good computer needed... April 10, 2008

First off, great highly addictive game. I was hooked on it the first time I saw it in action at my friend's house. I bought it last year and I still like playing it every once in a while.
I was a bit upset though when I played it on my old computer. I found that the vehicle missions would get complicated because the graphics would "chunk up" as my graphics card would struggle to keep up. It's no fault of the game though, I just had a very bad computer >_<.
I like this game, I sort of like the music, and the replay value is high.
