Game has issues with windows 7 somr driver is not installing. it works on an older PC with windows but hangs.

However, the game overall is incredible. I have been a diehard fan of the Sim City series since its days on the SNES. Sim City 3000 wasn't all that great, so this was a huge breath of fresh air for the series as far as graphics and gameplay.

I bought this game in 2004 for some high price thinking "I have always loved Sim City and maybe this is good." Boy was I surprised; first off, even now here in 2009, the graphics are not hugely dated, and the game looks amazing at high quality settings.

For those of you who have never played a Sim City game, I really recommend you go into buying this knowing what your getting yourself in to; The game has an EXTREME learning curve if you have never played a Sim City game before.

SimCity 4 is already the fourth installment of one of the most addictive games and challenging games in history. Yeah, It's really hard to believe that many years have passed since the original SimCity (1989?) was first released.

Maxis and EA Games have released Sim City 4, the updated version of its hugely successful Sim City series. I will now go over the basics of Sim City game play just in case you've been in a cave the last decade or so. In Sim City 4 you are the mayor/city planner.

New gameplay or rewashed concepts, polished graphics or over-rated hype? I'll be telling you about all that and more, right from Maxis's latest installment in the ever popular SimCity franchise.

I've played Simcity ever since the Amiga days when you had blocks of zones on a top down view with cars being depicted by black blocks driving through the streets. The Simcity series has come a long way since then and Maxis's latest effort, , is a gorgeous display of cityscape with good gameplay in...

Maxis' latest creation is everything SimCity 3000 was meant to be.
