North Americans will get their CD before people living in Europe, Asia, and Australia. I'd give it another week.

Hi, My son gave me SCS for Christmas. At 11 years old, he was very excited about spending 50 USD on a present. My opinions of the game are mixed. I miss the detail of SC4, and the "if I zone it, will they come?" anticipation. It took me just a few minutes reading the manual to realized that this was not a successor to SC4. This was a completely different game. THAT is the point to remember. If you are looking for an update to SC4, SCS is NOT what you want. If on the other hand you are looking for a quick and easy game where you get to build a small city, this might be it for you. I find SCS' gameplay somewhat voyeuristic, which I personally do not like. I've never played The Sims, but I couldn't help but wonder if SCS wasn't The Sims writ larger. In any event, the ability to click on a citizen to assess its mood reminded me of Tropico. In fact, SCS as a whole reminds me of that game. Tropico did not hold my attention, and SCS has the same problem. I don't think SCS is a bad game. I, at least, have not had any problems with the game running on my computer, but I have a fairly high-end machine. Playing SCS makes me long for SC4, but in deference to my son's excitement, I play SCS. In a few months, I'll probably drift back to SC4 in a way that doesn't hurt his feelings. SCS is not a Bad Game; It's just not the game for me. Regards, Scott Chisholm

Hi, I'm from Corpus Christi, Texas, presently serving in the U.S. Navy. I am a long-time SimCity fan, but have not played it a very long time. My 10-year old son found my copy of SC3 that I never loaded on a computer and expressed an interest. When it failed to load on my present XP machine, I decided it was time for an upgrade. So, a couple of weeks ago we found a copy of SC4D; neither of us have gotten much sleep since then.... I am amazed at how the game has matured since SC2k, and absolutely love the Rush Hour expansion. Greatly looking forward to delving through the archives here. To the Administrators: thank you for maintaining this site. Regards, Scott Chisholm
