I like it, I love it, I want some more of it. Not only does this game actually simulate something useful (that means it will teach us something of at least some value) but it is fun. each session is a new task to get things just right. I have an old computer (120 mhz) that I play this on and it works just fine! so don't think you need a speedster to have a little fun!
i like 2000 more

why? it just seemed to have a "funner" aspect to it than 3000, in 2000 it was possible to get a good city going without having to cheat, or be a master at the game. i spent hours and hours playing 2000, and i couldnt wait for 3000 to come out... but i was a little dissapointed, its fun, but not that fun, after awhile there is nothing else to do, and it gets real tedious when all your stuff breaks and you have to go about fixing it again... if you liked 2000, i would recommend this just because it is a fun game for the first 20 hours or so, if you didnt like 2000 then dont expect this to be any different from its predecessor
This game is Awesome, but gets boring after awile

My best city, dubbed Metro i created W/O cheats, and right now there is simply nothing to do. i filled the whole map, and everything is Perfect. It is Definetly the best SIM game, and even so, my city took at least 60 hours to build, and you can also biuild new ones, so you should by the game.
Challenging game.

This is a challenging game as you have to manage your city very well to win the support of the Sims. Having enough funds for city improvement and expansion is another thing to achieve.
At first, you'll be awed by the beautiful graphics, but as you play for a while more, the game will become boring. It dffers not much from Sim City 2000 with only a few additions here and there. You can see tiny people walking on the streets in this version.
Not much better than the last...

Pretty much just an upgrade over SC2K... definately improved, but no great new innovations here. Recommended, but not enthusiastically.

After being a giant fan of Sim City 2000, I thought that I would equally love this game. How wrong I was. There was nothing original about the game, and quite frantly, 2000 played a lot smoother. So if you are a fan of 2000, keep playing that, and if you did not like 2000, don't expect anything better from this game
The best Simcity yet

Sk3 was one of the best games ever made. The new additions are pretty cool and the 3d interface looks great
A seriously difficult game.

Sim City 3000 is good game, yet it is the hardest game I have ever played. The main problem is getting money. I can never get any profit at the end of each year. Sure, I can use the $100,000 cheat code, but it only works once. Another problem is getting the people to work. Even if you put residential areas (where they live) next to industrial areas (where they work), they still might complain that it is too far to go. Some good things about Sim City 3000 is that you can build famous landscapes. Also, the graphics are great! If you are considering buying this city-building game, I would suggest The Sims or Roller Coaster Tycoon instead.
A game that can be easy, or hard!

Making a City, it's a change for once. I like this game because it gives easy control, and it's fun to play. There are some down-sides to it too, like it takes too long to make a big city, and Sims complain tooooo much, but it's all good other then that. My favorite thing to do is save the city, then rip it down by disteasters. The good thing is you don't have to save it after you destory it. This game can be easy or hard, like if you want to make a big city, it takes time, and it's hard, but if you use codes like:I am weak, Call coison Vinnie, I love Red Tape, Power to the masses, Water in the desert, Garage in garage out, and nardz rool(actually spelling) it's eazy (...). Graphics, well it isn't that good on making small sims, but good on everything else, 9/10 Fun, a very fun game, isn't has fun as some games, but it's cool,7/10 Gameplay, well, if you like making cities, then it has long gameplay, 8.5/10 Sound, I really like the sound because it makes me think more,9.5/10 Overall, you would love this game, but it's fun isn't like some games 8.5/10 which is Great/Awesome and 4 stars for Sim City 3000!

Its alot like Sim City 2000, but it gives it a few new twists and better graphics. You have more control over the types of neighborhoods you make. Its fun.
