Irritating Game

I see some people love this game. I on the other hand, dislike it very much. Mostly because in order to make your city happy, you need money to make the city better. But you run out of money to soon and try to make some adjustments in the taxes and everything, which makes the city unhappy. And while your trying to do all that, the roads keep getting messed up and needing repairs, you have to add more police stations to keep the crime at bay, ect. Plus, if your playing with the crisis', you'll have aliens burning your hard work down, earthquakes, ect. It's just not worth the time. Now if you love a tough challenge and have nothing else you can think of to do, then go right ahead and get it. Otherwise, don't waste your time or money. This is unlike the regular Sims game, which is the best PC game ever. I really can't wait for The Sims 2! Save your money for that one! It will be so much better than the first!

No Instructions, Poor graphics, a waste of money

This program reminds me of my old Atari 2600, only much less fun. There are no useful instructions, the graphics stink, and as far as I can tell the entire game is one dull and repetitious waste of time money and effort. After spending over two hours trying to figure out how it could possibly be enjoyable-I gave up.
Save your money-Don't buy this. I wish I could return this product. Or better yet, I wish someone had advised me not to waste money on it, like I am urging you!

I thought taht after five minutes this game was boring, but I kept trying because I knew most things get more interesting. However, this was not the case. Don't buy this game it is a waste of money, especially if you are a girl and have better stuff to do. I am not really a negative person but this was really a truly awful game.

It looks good, but DON'T buy it!

This game is extremely bad. The only good sim games are the awesome "The Sims" games. In SimCity, th only way to build homes, hospitals, airports etc... is to use the urban renewal kit! If you build a city useing the regular game it does not build buildings at all! If you choose to make an area of land residential, it does not build homes, it colors the land green! This game is horrible! When you look at your finished city, it is a huge color coded land mass!

According to a lot of Sim City hard core players Sim City 2000 is better than the New Sim City 4 minus graphics.So I'll have wait and see if they are right.

I am a tester for maxis and EA

A Good But Undetailed Game

This game is a great game for anyone who enjoys simulation games. The point of the game is to build a money-making metropolis. You start with a gigantic plot of land, your goal is to build and make your sims (simulated residents of your city) happy. You can do this by not raising taxes to high and supplying their demands. The game simulates time very fast but you can pause and modulate the speed. Overall, this game was great but the graphics are bad and gameplay is nothing compared to Sim City 3000.

If I had a choice between SC 2000 or SC 3000 I'd have to say I'd choose 2000 though its graphics are not as good it's a lot more fun and easier to start. I'll have to admit when I first began playing I was shamelessly addicted. But after two days of playing I had my map completely filled and no more room to build. The game is fun for a short while but gets old real fast. I still highly reccommend this game for a boring tuesday afternoon.

happy to find this one again!

Wow, I played this way back when it first came out and loved it to pieces. Upgraded my computer, my disc vanished and I mourned. Then today I was just cruising around idly punching in search features and found it again, SO HAPPY!

For all those who are saying how terrible this game is, how it is boring and don't buy it, well, all I can is foo on you. Sure it doesn't have 3D graphics, but I tried SC3k and it was just awful compared to this one. As someone posted earlier, it felt cartoonish and kind of clunky compared to this version.
