 Yep, its SimCity February 28, 2008
Okay so I hadn't play SimCity in a while before buying this game, and surprisingly it is exactly the same game I played when I was ten (that was eleven years ago). Besides bringing up memories which were pleasurable, this game was not that entertaining but mildly addictive until I built everything I could possibly build in two days. While it was difficult to maintain a city when I was ten, this time around I was given buildings from the happy citizens, and had completely run out of space to build and my city budget was still in the black. I tried to play rush hour but found that to be very irritating and stupid. The missions and controls were horrible. So if you enjoy a challenge and have never played any version of SimCity, this game is for you. But for me, until they make a new ground-breaking city simulator, I'll hold on to my money.
Cities are fun (sort of) February 24, 2008
This game is great but some previous experience with the other sim city games is recomended although, you don't have to. There is a training program in it but if you wanna jump right in then you might want to be familiar with the buttons. Also it is very easy to go into bankruptcy.
Mildly buggy but still fun February 18, 2008
This is about a week long into ownership of this game. I have frequent crashes to desktop so I have learned to save progress often. The game is immersive and I really enjoy it. It's not so hard to learn and it is very rewarding to play. Therapeutic in some ways. I am happy I bought it.
 Awesome game for the price February 15, 2008

This is a great game from Maxis for the price it is selling at now. What makes it so great is not the product itself, but the amount of support that is available in the form of mods and new buildings, etc. made by designers from all around the world.
This one is a definite 5. Looking for a good fun game to spend your time? Then pick this one.
Still a good game even in 2008 January 18, 2008

The only difference between games made today and games made 5 years ago are the graphics. And the graphics of SimCity4.0 aren't that bad - they certainly won't make you cringe like you were playing the original Oregon Trail (hey, another fun but really old game!).
The complexity of this game makes for a steep learning curve. However, that intricacy is what makes this game so fun and challenging. There is no real objective to this game except to keep building. It sounds stupid but once you start, you can't stop, except to occasionally sit back and admire your work.
If you've never tried SimCity before, then don't hesitate to give this one a shot. It's the only game of its kind (thats worth playing anyways). Now that Amazon has it for so cheap, there really is no reason not to pick up a copy.
