 A huge disappointment ... the era of fun sim games is over September 14, 2008

I ordered Sim City Societies, in advance, about year ago for $49.
I had been looking forward to a new version of Sim City for a long time because I was a fan of the Sim City Classic and Sim City 2000.
The installation was a pain. When I finally got it working, I was disappointed because this game was geared to making a play city instead of exploring the problem of how cities should be organized. Maybe I'm in the minority, but I'm interested in urban planning.
Thumbs down on this game!
 Sim Societies Review August 14, 2008
I think this is easier than Sim City 4, but too easy that some of the excitement disappeared. It is also less simulative of real city processes as Sim City 4.
They should just have refined Sim City 4 by including export economies, import and export, banking, stock market, etc... as sort of a mixture of Sim City 4 and Capitalism Plus.
TERRIBLE! July 21, 2008

Ever since I downloaded this game, my system has been falling apart. The game was never much fun anyway, since it kept crashing. I truly regret purchasing this game.
 Very Interesting July 20, 2008

This is a really fun game. Even though it's got a lot of bad reviews because of its simplicity and many problems, I think this game is very fun and interesting. It really has changed since SimCity 4, which is also a great game, but they are good changes. The 3D engine is awesome(even though it's a little slow), especially since you can see the sky, and I like the sandbox mode, where you can create the city of your dreams! The updates have added more features to the game, so they are a big part of the game. Very Fun!
disappointing step down from previous games July 18, 2008

What was perhaps the most disappointing thing in a long list of disappointments about this game was that it did not build off of previous SimCity versions. It threw out everything good and started from scratch, and this SimCity bears no resemblance to the other games I loved. Perhaps most egregiously, it imparts no real wisdom as to the cause-and-effect nature of the ecological and societal impacts of the buildings you place. All in all, not at all fun, doesn't really make any sense at all! And I had such high hopes.
