Y'know, a funny thing happened today. There I was, sitting on my sofa and dreaming about food (those pesky thought bubbles), when I felt this almighty presence in the room; a magnificent glow lit up the walls, and the house began to shake ominously as if in an earthquake. I thought it might be a problem with the central heating, so I got up to fiddle with the thermostat when this almighty booming voice came out of nowhere... "BEHOLD, MY SIM! YOU HAVE BEEN CHOSEN!" I sat back down. ... Read the complete review

*** THE SHORT VERSION (FOR THOSE IN A HURRY - AND BECAUSE I APPEAR TO HAVE WITTERED ON SOMEWHAT!) *** The latest in a succession of successful "God" games based on creating and running your own city, Sim City 4 is definitely a cut above it's previous incarnations. It maintains the same addictive qualities, but has managed to eradicate some of the slightly more irritating aspects of the game. It is beautiful to look at, fairly easy to pick up and highly playable. The features and levels of the games have expanded, enabling you to appreciate the game on both a large (regional) and a small (individual person) level. It will take up ... Read the complete review

The lure of the SimCity marketing strategy has dangled its meaty little worm and like the rampant consumer I am I?ve nibbled and finally swallowed it whole and been hooked without chance of parole. Maxis (famed maker of ?The Sims? have been tempting, luring and seducing me into being the master of virtual people for many, many years. Ever since, in fact, the release of the first SimCity so many moons ago. Well things have changed a lot since then, machines have grown to be the size of small houses and crime is a thing of the past. Actually no it hasn?t, you?ve got me on that one, but games most certainly have developed, and knowing this may well have been what ... Read the complete review

This review is based on the Deluxe Edition of the game. Sim City 4 Deluxe Edition is the latest release in the increasingly popular Sim City series of games. The Deluxe Edition combines the original Sim City 4 with the Rush Hour expansion pack, which aims to add a lot more fun to traffic management in your city. Sim City 4 is published by EA Games and developed by Maxis (perhaps more well known for their Sims games, even though the Sim City series started a long time before the Sims began.) For those who have played previous Sim City games, Sim City 4 feels and plays like a more complex and better designed game to previous games in ... Read the complete review

Sadly, most of the bad reviews (written by critical thinkers) that you're seeing here for SimCity 4 are accurate. I've been a SimCity fan ever since its earliest versions back in the early 90's. After mastering each version, I always look forward to what great new innovations the Maxis folks can come up with next. There are some excellent new features to SimCity 4, of course. The buildings look more futuristic and realistic, the disasters are cooler, and the ability to tie multiple cities into a regional entity is a real plus. The biggest improvement is with landscaping. In the "terraforming" mode you are able to create remarkable mountains and ... Read the complete review
