Hit or Miss? Definitely a Mis-take.
I could have spent my money on something more constructive. I am very disappointed as I have been a Sim City or any Sims buyer for years.
I was upset at how different it was. Make a simcity 5 for goodness sake!
Whats with all these negative reveiws. Yeah, it might suck as a Sim City, but it opening the gaming world up to a great city building sub-genre! I think it looks great actaully. Giving tedious thing like pipes and power lines a miss. Who cares if some things are implausible? Can’t you use your imagination?! The clock tower for example, boosts Authority. But, think about it. It could get you to work on time! USE YOUR TINY BRAINS!!
This game shouldn’t be compared to Sim City games as such, but more of a window to new oppurtunities. I’m definately getting this game, so stuff all you pessamistic idealistic reveiwers!

P.S. We could do with an expansion!
Wil, I think you are completely right, it’s a great game for using your imagination and not just build streets, zones and services. If you are looking for a SC5… it sucks, but I think it is a completely new game.
