I would like to see the Panorama Towers from Las Vegas made. Here is a link to a bit of the info. http://www.luxuryrealtygroup.com/panorama-towers.html Also Italian Tuscan style homes with rock fascades. And Art Deco Styled buildings from the early 1900s. Perhaps also some new modern condos, but not too tall or high wealth.

Is it true? I just did a search for the phrase Sim City 5, and according to another fan site, it has officially been announced!! I hope this is true. Another fan site has reported that they announced it recently. MSN listed it in their search results as November 18th, 2005. If this is true, I have not seen any confirmation of this anywhere. I went to the Maxis site, and couldn't find anything there, and also the EA site, and didn't see any news there. I will check Gamespy and see if there is any news there, and get back to you. This has me about as excited as the day that SC4 came out. I never will forget the day that I bought that. I however feel that if it was true, that it would be all over the news here on this site, which has kind of got me believing that this may be a hoax. Anyone know the truth? Or can't I handle the truth.

I noticed that too from that site. I believe there is a charge for the program now. But there is an upgraded version of the Gmax, version 8 I think, available for a charge. I was just curious if that would still work with the Sim City game, and if so, is the program any better than the one that we got from Discreet some time ago? And is it any easier to use. And one more, I swear, how is the format different than the BAT tool if it is?

I would like to see more of the Italian Villa type buildings, like what Cobb has created thus far. I thoroughly enjoy his designs, and would like to see more of them, only in smaller, more 1 family type dwellings. I would also like to see The Olive Garden Restaurant New England Colonial Styled homes (saltbox, or dutch revival) Mount Vernon (George Washington's home) Georgian Colonial homes (with the big 2 story columns. Brick is the theme here) Bloomingdale's Department Store (NYC famous store) FAO Schwartz Toy Store (another famous NYC store) Prarie Style homes (with the wraparound porches, and dormer windows usually 1 & 1/2 stories tall) This is all that comes to mind right now, but I would like to say, while I love the big tall high rise skyscrapers, there are many large cities that don't have a lot of them, so the shorter, meaning 15 stories or less, buildings are more popular in todays cities. The exception being Hong Kong, and ultra modern cities such as those. I would like to see the smaller buildings available, as they lend a certain charm to the city.
