	SimCity - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		SimCity is predominantly a single-player game (the exception being a "Network Edition" of SimCity 2000, and an obscure Unix port of the original SimCity).
		The objective of SimCity, as the name of the game suggests, is to build and design a city, without specific goals to achieve (except in the scenarios, which typically require the player to achieve a certain population or bank balance in a given period of time).
		SimCity and SimCity 2000 were also released for the SNES.

	SimCity 4 Review for PC at GamingExcellence
		SimCity 3000 had the potential to be a massive leap in the series, yet it seemed to fall short in several respects.
		In SimCity 3000, players were able to connect roads and services to adjoining cities, and make deals to export garbage and other such trades.
		As with its predecessor, SimCity 4 includes the ability to add historical landmarks and tourist attractions to your city, whether you want the massive CN Tower or the inescapable prison Alcatraz, the title offers a wide selection to choose from.

	SimCity 3000 Teacher's Guide
		SimCity 3000 teacher's guide may be copied for classroom use only and any other unauthorized use or copying of any other SimCity 3000 materials is prohibited by applicable law.
		SimCity 3000 illustrates what is usually abstract for students: that the real world has millions of people in thousands of cities with the same needs, wants and hopes, and that we should treat people, cities, the planet, and life itself with respect and care.
		By making SimCity 3000 available for individual students to use during class, before or after school, or in free time, you can help students find their own area of interest, and allow them the time to explore and be creative.

	SimCity 4 - ESCMag Review
		The first new thing you'll notice upon loading SimCity 4 is the Regional Map, a large grid of various terrain types, each providing slightly different choices for players to dive into.
		SimCity 4 provides tools to lift, carve, flatten, erode, flood and renew the terrain as the player chooses, and even goes to the extent of offering a variety of wild animals to populate the soon-to-be-civilized wilderness.
		SimCity 4 rewards players who are patient and attentive enough to run their growing towns on the barest of necessities, building up their infrastructures so that they can add essential services only when necessary.

	SIMCITY (Site not responding. Last check: )
		SimCity 2000 is also available for handheld organizers running Microsoft's Pocket PC OS, as well as the Game Boy Advance and PlayStation.
		SimCity 4 also makes an attempt at multiplayer gaming with the ability to share regional maps and cities with other players, allowing you to collaborate, but not play in real time.
		SimCity 3000 is essentially SimCity 2000 with several small features added and graphics updated to a standard appropriate for when it was published.

	SimCity 4 for PC Review - PC SimCity 4 Review
		SimCity was challenging and plausibly realistic and even had a surprising amount of humor, especially for a game with a seemingly mundane subject.
		SimCity 4 is similar to its predecessors, but it offers a number of interesting new features.
		And since city maps in SimCity 4 are smaller overall than in previous SimCity games--probably a necessary limitation due to the fine level of detail you'll see down to individual houses and sims--that wasted space could be a big missed opportunity for your city.

	Featuring SimCity 4 Review at ActionTrip
		After almost 2 years since the SimCity 3000 Unlimited, EA and Maxis have made a completely improved sequel, which brings many innovations both in terms of graphics, as well as gameplay.
		One of the most important aspects of playing SimCity 4 is the amount of time and patience you need to invest into your town and its population.
		This is truly the best thing about SimCity 4; most of the time you are required to wait a while after you've placed your first housing, commercial, and industrial zones.

	SimCity for your Palm device (EasyPrint)
		SimCity was one of the very first games I ever bought for the IBM PC -- in fact, it's the game that finally convinced me that IBM compatibles were good for something other than balancing Lotus 1-2-3 spreadsheets, running WordPerfect, and keeping track of personal records with Paradox.
		The Palm Computing Port of SimCity is suitable for any Palm organizer running Palm OS 3.0 or later, like Palm III, Palm IIIx, or Palm V. You'll need 230K of free memory to install the software.
		SimCity is great on the Palm Platform because you don't have to commit too much time to it if you don't want to.

		Maxis continued to evolve SimCity with SimCity 2000, which was a huge jump from the original game, and has recently released the next evolution, SimCity 3000.
		SimCity 3000 was to be a conglomeration of the Streets of SimCity, Sim Copter, and Sim Golf (none of which were stellar titles).
		SimCity 3000 has improved the way roads, highways, railroads, buses and subways function, all to Maxis' credit, but otherwise there is nothing new.

	GameOver - SimCity 3000 (c) Maxis (Site not responding. Last check: )
		You are placed at the helm of a new city and it is your job to nurture the city from village to metropolis.
		SimCity 3000 is the third incarnation of this gaming classic and it proves a worthy successor to its predecessors.
		This was first implemented in SimCity 2000 but was done very poorly and was an incredible hassle.

	SimCity Essay
		SimCity evolved from Raid on Bungling Bay, where the basic premise was that you flew around and bombed islands.
		For example, in SimCity, the way a new area of town is developed is to "zone" it.
		(SimCity is used as a pedagogical tool in many Urban Studies classes.) But it is true that the absorbing interaction between human and computer in simulation gaming can tend to discourage collaborative play.

	ClassicGaming.com - Game of the Week: SimCity
		SimCity also comes with a few pre-made scenarios, in which your goal is to save a pre-constructed city from some imminent disaster, like a mock-up of San Francisco from an earthquake (though some scenarios just deal with planning problems like rampant crime).
		If there is a flaw to SimCity, it might be that sometimes you just have to turn up the speed at which time passes and leave the program running for a while on its own before you can build up enough cash to continue building.
		Naturally, the Java version of SimCity was put up to promote SimCity 3000, the latest incarnation of the game complete with flashy graphics and many new ways to express your creativity.

	IMG Review: SimCity 4
		SimCity spawned a host of imitators, several sequels and established at least one genre on its release in 1989.
		The latest version of the definitive city builder, SimCity 4, made its appearance on the PC earlier this year, and was ported to the Mac by i5works and published by Aspyr.
		A new and welcome addition to SimCity game play is that of regions which are divided into many plots of land for potential city locations, enabling the players to establish different types of communities on one region map to strike deals and share resources.

	The Next American City
		Because of the widespread use of SimCity in schools and homes, it is easy to make a case, as Paul Starr of The American Prospect has, that SimCity provides a more influential introduction to city planning than any book on the subject.
		Though SimCity is now looking to the crossroads of simulation and action games, as in its new “Rush Hour” expansion pack, the game’s developers still consider the educational market one of its key audiences.
		SimCity has the same basic analytic mechanisms as GIS; consequently, when schools use SimCity to teach urban planning and politics, they teach the framework of analyzing environmental and social relations via GIS.

	SimCity 4 Review
		SimCities have rewarded the player for good city design, rather than punishing for a bad one.
		SimCity 2000 is widely considered the peak of Sim-game design, since it added a little more depth without complicating the game or making it tedious.
		As in previous SimCities, the current city can be connected to neighboring ones, but of course now the player has control over those neighbors.

		SimCity is an award-winning computer simulation that introduces people to the power of computer modeling in political science.

		SimCity will terraform a region for you and present you with two maps to view your region.

	Simcity4.co.uk - A new direction for game play — Spore & SimCity 5
		Using this new 'intelligent code', SimCity 5 would be able to think for itself, saving a lot of work on animation, building design, moving objects, infrastructure, etc. And would mean that the game would not only become simpler in playing, it would become simpler.
		The adoption of this new code would mean that SimCity 5 would be more of an individually functioning 4 Dimensional game of development, time, change, war, disaster, bridging water and gorge, towers and skyscrapers, business, money, taxation, housing transport, infrastructure and more, that they would then unleash on us to create masterpieces.
		We would build cities with a much higher level of detail, it is possible that you would loose the square grid, be able to build roads in natural curves, build a bridge as high or a tunnel as low as you want, gain a higher knowledge of the populous of your city.

	WorldChanging: Another World Is Here: The Map is not the Terrain; the Sim is not the City
		Unfortunately, SimCity is often seen as more than a game: SimCity, in all of its versions, shows up in classrooms, research papers, and (rumor has it) planning offices around the country.
		Simcity 4 was, in many people's opinion, the worst in a very long time.
		Besides all that, though, the base premise of Simcity has never been set in reality -- it's just a game -- and cities don't pay out of their own pocket for probably 90% of the things that a Simcity needs to pay for.

	SimCity 3000 Unlimited for PC video game review and cheats (Site not responding. Last check: )
		With new artistic touches (two new building sets and new world landmarks), new challenges (four new disasters as well as added scenarios), and new expandability (a building creation tool and a scenario creator) there is even more to love.
		If you have never played a SimCity game, here is the place to start, with both linear and non-linear gameplay that will keep you busy for hours.
		If you already have SimCity 3000 and are wondering if it is worth the upgrade, I would also recommend SC3KU, for not only are you going to receive plenty of extras to keep you busy, but you can send in for a $10 rebate.

	Wired News: Fastest PCs Just Not Fast Enough
		The release of SimCity 4 in January and the rumors surrounding the upcoming debut of Doom III sparked lots of discussion.
		Clair found that SimCity 4 had poor performance on his 933-MHz system with 512 MB of RAM and the same Nvidia graphics card as Evans, despite the fact that Electronic Arts' minimum system requirements for the game call for a 500-MHz processor with 128 MB of memory.
		Aaron Erickson, a longtime SimCity fan, had similar trouble running the game on a computer that met the recommended requirement of 1 GHz and 256 MB of memory, leading him to wonder how companies select the specs in the first place.

	The reworkings of SimCity 3000 (Site not responding. Last check: )
		SimCity 3000 from Maxis is finally out, and it certainly has been worth the wait.
		A feature from GameSpot explains the predicament, "The problem was that the existing 3D technology simply wasn't capable of handling SimCity's microscopic level of detail, which would have required rendering an almost innumerable number of polygons." Development was started anyway and SimCity 3000 was on its way to disaster.
		After all the turmoil involved, SimCity 3000 was released in February of this year.
