Summary: awsome game
Review: I agree yhis game is way better than simcity3000 because this one is way more realistic and simcity3000 is way too cartoonish

Summary: Fun But I Miss It!
Review: I got SimCity 2000 from a gift and it was a blast when I had my old computer from 1994-99 and I got a new computer in 2000 and I started installing the game from the floppy on my iMac. The floppy said there was an error on the disk and I was torn and screaming that I cannot no longer play it. Whenever I see SimCity 2000 at a store I pick it up only to learn its for WINDOWS I hate that. If you or you know someone who can donate or direct me where I can get a new version of SimCity 2000 for Macintosh please contact me immeadiately.

Summary: Sim cityreview
Review: I loved your game. It was a very thoughtful game too. It was the only game that didnt make me Hyperventilate. I cant wait for the new sequel, ah, what is the name ofit, SIMCITY3000.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good game
Review: I never really figured out how to make the city really "work"- putting in the water pipes and electric wires to electrify the buildings. It had really cool buildings, though (hundreds) and you could make the land mountainous or make it into an island in the middle of the sea. If anyone figured out how to really get into this, please say so!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A gem, if you have a bit of patience...
Review: I own the first three Sim City games, so when I got this one, I was used to playing the first Sim City, so I struggled with the interface changes and new additions. But when I began to be successful, I started to really love the funny newspapers, rewards, and other good things, so I am a convert. It's a shame that SimCity 3000 failed to compel me half as much. Buy this one and abort your search for fancy graphics: once you master this game, you won't care that they aren't in crisp 3D.

Summary: Irritating Game
Review: I see some people love this game. I on the other hand, dislike it very much. Mostly because in order to make your city happy, you need money to make the city better. But you run out of money to soon and try to make some adjustments in the taxes and everything, which makes the city unhappy. And while your trying to do all that, the roads keep getting messed up and needing repairs, you have to add more police stations to keep the crime at bay, ect. Plus, if your playing with the crisis', you'll have aliens burning your hard work down, earthquakes, ect. It's just not worth the time. Now if you love a tough challenge and have nothing else you can think of to do, then go right ahead and get it. Otherwise, don't waste your time or money. This is unlike the regular Sims game, which is the best PC game ever. I really can't wait for The Sims 2! Save your money for that one! It will be so much better than the first!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Extremely dated but great vintage value!
Review: I still come back to this game from time to time considering the immensely complex scope of the newest SC 4 game released recently.

I have such great memories of this game when I got in during Christmas of 1998 and played it for a long time afterwards and for most of that time, it was the most state of the art computer game that was ever created at least at that point in time.

In this game, you zone out the tiles of land for industial, commercial and residential development and manage your city's progress from a small unincorporated village into a thriving metropolis or town if you don't want it big. The game is incredibly simple compared to the newest reincarnation of the game saga.

This game is extremely dated today but tack in 1994 through late 1998, this game to me was the 'game of the future;! The graphics are quite low on detail and almost look silly by todays standards. The water pumps for example look more like pacifiers than real water pumps. The railroads are also a bit questionable by today's standards because although it makes it a lot easier to play, the railroads can be built at ninety degree angles, something that is impossible with real traintracks which can bend maybe no more than like 10 degrees. At the same time, it's quite entertaining just to see the freight trains pass the ninety degree bends with no problems at all.

This game holds a special place in my life not just because I played it so much but also because it was the game that brought the whole Simcity Saga into my life and is the grandfather of the simcity games. It's definatety a keeper just for it's vintage value and the memories that it holds for me.

A true classic in every way. This game is the grandfather of the Simcity Saga at least for me it is.
