This is a very entertaining game. It isn't one of the action packed varieties but it has given me hours of enjoyment without the pressure of being shot at. It's not for everyone but if you like to master the basic economics of building a city it's fun.
Not bad...

SC4 is pretty good. It is very organized and clear. It's very easy to use and it has lots of options for different things. Personally, I think its very good.
P.S. CD Code may be on back of manual. For faster installation, copy disc one to your comp and insert disc 2 when needed.
Great Game!

I read about the game and thought it sounded fun enough to buy. It's a great game if you like to build-I can't think of another word right off- and/or be in control of things. I find myself playing this for hours without realizing it! My advice is read a description and if it sounds like something you're into, try it! It's fun!
Not much of an improvement

I really enjoyed SimCity 3, or 3000 as it was called. Sim City 4 definitely has some improvements over sim city 3, but I don't think it is better. It has more features, better graphics, and is more real to life than sim city 3 is. However, it is also more difficult, and because it is more difficult than sim city 3 was it isn't as much fun. I got bored with playing it sooner than sim city 3 because it was just harder to make any progress.

I bought SimCity 4 only to find out that it does not run on some Windows 98 machines. I have all the hardware requirements, so when it did not run I called tech support. Amazingly enough they told me it just did not run on some Windows 98 machines. What a surprise. I normally trust EAGames but this was disappointing.

Its fun for a while but then becomes rather momotonous. Maybe I just don't have the time to do a total exploration of the game. It is a blast though I truly enjoy it.
EA ROBBED ME!

No access code included. Now I have to mail them a request. Get this! You can not even talk to a human at their customer service line. All you can do is get the address to mail it in. I thought EA was good. Turns out they are scammers. Avoid their products!
Money, Money, Money!!!!

This game is fun, but I hate paying for stuff! I hate that the landmarks have to be paid for! I wish the rewards are free, and I wish everything is free!. I'm just 13, and I can't deal with all these taxes! I hope in Sim City 5, everything is free, but for expert players, they can play hard mode for money. I just want to have fun, and not worry about money.
