 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.

Moderately good computer needed... April 10, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
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.
Sim City 4 Deluxe April 8, 2008
What an unbelievable game!!! It really lets you take control of whatever you want. The tutorials are good for getting you started, which is exactly what they were meant for. Not too short, not too long. The gameplay I felt was fantastic. Especially for the price. You just cant beat it. Start small and just watch your cities grow. There are alot of decisions to make which makes the game really appealing for me. Im also a big C&C fan and I felt the interface was very similar. Great buy for an ever better price!!!
Cool fun and even educational April 7, 2008
Sim City 4 Deluxe is a great strategy game with outstanding graphics and effects. It is fun for any skill level plkayer, even older children. It can even be a great learning tool into land usage, geography, economics and social studies. I can't stop once I begin playing.
