I reckon it'd be great if you could start your city way back and mimic the development of some of the older cities in the world. Like the old cobbled streets in York, and maybe allow the architecture to develop through different eras. Also, be able to add in slum areas or shanty towns like you get in some cities across the world. Have all the additonal transportation types available through the NAM, and include cycleways, pedestrian routes, bus lanes, HOV lanes, high speed rail links, congestion charging and seemless underground to overground transit (like in London). Something I'd also love is to be able to do schemes with specific areas of the city (maybe recycing initiatives, sustainable travel initiatives etc), commuter travel plans etc. And how about being able to host the Olympics, World Cup etc if you have good enough sports facilities etc. That could add a whole new dimension via the net as people could compete for these 'awards' and then get extra money i they manage to host them well. I do think that it needs to stay a bit cartoony in terms of graphics though and hope they resist the temptation to for the realistic approach taken by games like Total War etc. I dont think this would suit Sim City. I'd prefer more options and greater realism for the way the city or region functions rather than a DRASTIC graphical overhaul. But graphical impovements would be good to an extent.
