Summary: Terrible Book
Review: I have read this book on the internate. There are alot of mistakes. First of all, in one page it told about brownouts(like microwave beam torhing other buildings). I have never seen this happen. It also said that rioters ae suppose to set fires, I have never seen this happen. The prices to all these buildings are wrong. The cost for a Coal Plant is 4,500 doolars is suppose to be 5,000 dollars. It says that when there is a nuclearmelt down, fires are set. This is true in SimCity 2000 but not in SC3K. And there many other mistakes. Throw this book out.

Summary: A Waste of Money
Review: This book is a very poor guide to SimCity 3000. Many of thereferences are for events and screens that occur in the SimCity 2000edition and which are not duplicated in the 3000 game. For example, the book refers many times to specific increases in the dollar value of tiles, even though the 3000 game does not identify specific dollar values, only ranges such as "very high" or "astronomical". The book even refers to the bus station as a four tile building (which it was in the 2000 game), not a one tile building as it is in the 3000.

The final insult is an entire chapter dealing with 2000 scenarios which are not included in the 3000 edition.

Overall, this is a poorly edited older guide book with little work done to properly update the information for the new edition.
