	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.
		SimCity 4 offers much of the same as its predecessor in the ways of transportation and city services.
		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.

		Summary: Simcity 4 allows you to be the all-powerful mayor of your very own city.
		Simcity 4 carries on the tradition of the Simcity series by allowing you to be the all-powerful mayor of your very own city.
		This brings up the only downside of disasters: the game may not communicate the emotional impact of disasters very well-something that may need to be addressed by parents as their children play the game.

	Mac Game Database > Review > SimCity 4
		SimCity 4 is a simulation of a recession in progress.
		The first three dozen times I played SimCity 4, I was thrown out of the city within a few years due to over spending and a lack of revenue generation.
		As we said before, zoning is a fundamental staple in the diet of building a SimCity 4 community, but make sure to allow each area to fill up and max out before you zone more areas.

	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.

	UGO.com Games - SimCity 4 review of the city simulation sequel from Maxis and Electronic Arts, starring The Sims
		SimCity, however, was the only one of the Sim games to earn a sequel (though The Sims 2 is planned) in the form of SimCity 2000 and SimCity 3000.
		SimCity 4 (compare prices) by far has the most detailed and stunning graphics of the entire series.
		SimCity 4 has its shares of technical problems, and most of it relate to the processing power it requires.

	SimCity 4 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		SimCity 4 (SC4) is a 2003 simulation/city building computer game; the fourth installment in the SimCity series of games.
		As with previous SimCity titles, SimCity 4 places players in the role of a mayor (or several mayors), tasked with populating and developing tracts of lands into cities.
		Repeating the limited design principle practiced during SimCity 3000, commercial and residential buildings in SimCity 4 borrow heavily from early 20th century architectural styles, particularly Art Deco and Romanesque Revival, while most houses appear in a traditional American Craftsman bungalow style, and modern architecture is sprinkled throughout this mix.

		SimCity 4 brings things up on more of a macro level, allowing you to view entire regions.
		Mayor mode is the traditional SimCity mode where you control the development of your city through public policy and zoning decisions.

	SimCity - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		SimCity was Maxis' first product, and has since been enhanced into several different versions including SimCity 2000 in 1993, SimCity 3000 in 1999 and SimCity 4 in 2003, while the original SimCity was later rebranded as SimCity Classic.
		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).
		SimCity 4 also makes an attempt at multiplayer gaming with the ability to share regional maps and cities with other players, allowing players to collaborate, but not play in real time.

	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 biggest improvement that I saw in SimCity 4 were the disasters.
		There is no strategy to SimCity 4 - I thought that SimCity 3000 had been a botched attempt by the designers, but in truth it appears the direction that they are heading with the SimCity series is simply the "Build and Watch" approach.
		With the new SimCity 4 Rush Hour Expansion Pack your city is on the move.

	GameSpy.com - Review
		SimCity 4, the latest incarnation of the series, is no different: you're still planning cities, solving problems, and watching them grow under your benevolent (well, sometimes benevolent) guidance.
		SimCity 4 takes advantage of today's powerful PCs by allowing you to get closer to your city or farther out than ever before.
		SimCity 4 also offers a unique way to communicate how you're doing.

	The Next American City
		These are the welcome lines to SimCity 4 Deluxe, the latest release of the most influential strategy game in the history of urban planning.
		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.

	Review: SimCity 4 for PC on Gamepro.com.
		SimCity 4 is a significant evolution of a classic series, displaying a refinement and balance that borders on revolution.
		All of the old SimCity substance is here in very recognizable forms?Residential, Commercial, and Industrial zoning; pollution overlays and crime maps; natural disasters; police support ranges; taxes and maintenance sliders, and budget-balancing tricks?but all handled much more wisely with no annoying micromanagement issues and a far greater attunement with the world at large.
		SimCity 4?s completely restructured interface is simple and efficient, divided into God, Mayor, and Sim modes.

	SimCity 4 Review
		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.
		On top of that, SimCity 4 has a superb soundtrack with a large number of tunes at your disposal (you can play any of them at any time, and you can also import your own MP3 files if you like).

	SimCity 4 Review
		So after my first few days of SimCity 4, it was with some relief that I noticed his name was nowhere on the credits.
		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.

	IGN: SimCity 4 Preview
		While much of the appeal and significance of the SimCity properties has been overshadowed somewhat by the staggering success of The Sims in its many iterations, Maxis is hard at work on the next stage in city building simulation.
		The goal, as Sean sees it is "trying to let the players build something that looks semi-realistic." To that end they've included a really sharp geography engine that allows for all kinds of realistic effects.
		Previous SimCity games have forced the player to plot their own streets, power lines, water pipes, and subways.

		The latest sequel to one of the early pioneers of the god-sim genre, Sim City 4 is a polished, challenging evolution of the concept, which doesn't break much new ground.
		Right from the start in SimCity 4, players will experience new God-like powers of creation as they lay the groundwork for their cities by moulding mountains, carving valleys, seeding forests and laying rivers.
		This is the first SimCity game I have ever played - I know, I can barely believe it myself - and in honesty I only bought it to fill up the basket on one of those "three for two" deals.

		SimCity 4 might sit down among the many footnotes in the history of gaming, but it fills its remit with skill, creating a game that genuinely demands something of our oft-neglected intellect.
