ok i tried to play CXL again for a few hours got a city with 47,000 and then got fed up with buisnesses going bankrupt and the trade system, how does it work I move the slider then a while later I get a message saying 'you cant trade something something not enough tokens blah blah blah' which annoyed me and then something went wrong with the bus which made me get angry, then quit the game and built a nice new city in SM4. Also why do you have to build a town hall first all the time, its so stupid! my rating 4/10 - maybe buy it if you want to appreciate how good sim city actually is!

Well I just got Cities Xl 2011 and I have to say I am dissapointed! I tried to give it a fair chance by playing it for a good 3 hours but I just dont like it. I dont like the views available its either directly above or way down at street level, I want a high side view like sim city. and the view changing the view using the mouse is far too sensitive! I dont like that education can be good with no schools and the same with health and that people move in without electricity and water! I also dont like the cartoon type of people in the city. I dont like the trade its too complex same with the mass transit i dont wan tto set up the bus roots, yes its a good idea but maybe if the routes were standard and you could adjust them instead. What i do like is the ability to decide what class of people move into a certain residential zone and of course the map graphics is very good. To summarise I am going back to sc4 with extra content from the ST exchange!
