Its clear that Tilted Mill and EA are "reimagining" the Sim City series. Unfortunatly this reimagining has gone bad. I do admit that Sim City 4 takes alot of time but thats the fun of it. Sim City isn't suppose to be a quick game. I took the most pride in my city being built from the ground up, not plopping down row of buildings after buildings. And gingerbread houses really don't belong in a city....maybe in a theme park but not a city.
