Pros: Great features, game play
Cons: lag, slow frame rate at times
The Bottom Line: If you love the other Sim City's you'll love this one too.

| brown12687's Full Review: SimCity 4 For Windows |
I have always love the Sim City line of games. When Sim City 4 came out I had to have it. I went to the store and bought it right away. This game has some great features that the others didnt have. It also seems to be so complex that the pc can handle it.
Game-play: The game play is great. After learning the basic controls you can easily start building the city of your dreams.
Graphics: The graphics are great, if you can stand having to wait for each section of your city to load. I'm sure that my computer isn't the problem hear (2.6 gighrtz, 512 mb RAM, 48x CD-Rom, 128 Graphics card) They do put some nice touches that make the game alot better than expected i.e. wave rolling up to the shore, seaguls and their squeeks, and much more.
Sound: Well the sound isn't award winning because most of the sounds have carried over from the 3000 series. There are a few different sounds but again nothing award winning.
I bought the Sim City 4 Deluxe Edition. There are some really cool features in this edition that are not in any other ones because of the expansion pack that came with the game. With the expansion pack you can drive pretty much any vehicle anywhere you want, then you can hop in a jet or a UFO and fly around the city doing different tasks or just go roaming free. Dropping bombs and abducting things is really cool.
Over all the game is great, but they should have kept in the works longer because of the lag. There could have been something that they could have done to fix that.
