I know this is a topic discussed before, but I am still on the fence. I just got a new computer (8 GB RAM; 1 GB RAM video). I installed Sim City 4 Deluxe I game I already own and love. I am the guy who uses money and demand cheats and just wants a blank canvas to do what I want. I love the exchange, I like browsing and downloading what is out there.
Should I just go with Sim City or would Cities XL be something I should definitely check out? My computer could handle it, so I am not worried about that. What I am worried about is things like ploppable buildings, do they have them? I love them, I like to be able to build my cities they way you would set up your train set. I like to create "feels" to neighborhoods. Does Citles XL have this type of freedom and variety?
I already own and have Sim City running (on Windows 7, which I heard could be a problem). But Cities XL looks like it would be a good on my new PC.
Any advice. Thanks!
