This one if you're cheap.What does Simcity 4 have that 3000 doesn't? And vice - versa? But that doesn't mean you can get away with doing the same thing four times in a row. The underlying SimCity concept is one of the best gaming devices ever to emerge from the cesspit of turgid platformers and identikit shooters. Fine if you hadn't already played it before, but pointless if you were already an experienced virtual mayor looking for new city planning-related thrills. This third version had some fancy graphics to add to the mix, but once you'd gotten past the rotatey-pseudo 3D, it quickly boiled down to exactly the same thing. Well a couple of jots (3D graphic rendering was still in its infancy back in pre-Civil War America), but essentially every SimCity game has been the same mix of zoning, road laying, power lining and accounts juggling.
SIMCITY 3000 AIRPORT SERIES
The SimCity series hasn't changed one jot since it was first invented in, oh let's say, 1854 by Willard Wright. Have you already got SimCity 20007 Then once again you don't need this, as it's the same game, just a little bit prettier and with a few more options. It's the same game just a bit less pretty and with a few less options. Have You already got SimCity 4? Fine, you don't need this. While bog-standard SimCity 3000 is fine, I do feel that if you want to play this game, the World Edition is the version that you need to play. They did actually release a better version called, SimCity 3000: World Edition which offers what this game offers and much more. Here is the thing, as good as this game is. I loved SimCity 3000 when it was first released and I feel that it holds up very well to this day. Not only do they actually help you, but they also help give the game a tad more charm as well. Some people did not care about this aspect of the game, but I liked it. You also have advisors who are kind of like friends that will help you out. One is that you now have a new ticker which will keep you informed of how things are going ranging from stuff like crime, people's opinions, and even a UFO attack. There are a couple of other new things that I want to give a special mention to.
Overall, if you have played a previous game in the series, you will feel right at home here. Getting to the end of the year and not being broke is always something that causes me to be very pleased with myself. You will never keep all of your citizens truly happy, but you can try your best. There are tons of new buildings and little things to keep you on your toes.
You also have agricultural stuff going on as well which believe it or not was new to this. Waste management is now an issue, the larger your city the more likely you are going to have problems with people and their garbage so you need to manage that! Instead, I want to talk about some of the new features they added to the game that I feel make the game feel fuller. I feel that by this point most people know what the deal with this franchise is so I will not bore you with the core details about what SimCity 3000 is all about. It may not sound like a lot, but it works wonders to make the city you are working for, feel like a real place. I feel this one has many more “finer details” you can see cars more clearly driving on the road and pedestrians walking around for example. While it may share that SimCity style that the first few games had. I think that there was a noticeable graphical leap from the last game to this one. However, SimCity 3000 and the other games in the series pull it off to perfection and this one does it with some tongue in cheek and a ton of personality. What is weird is that on paper I know this sounds like the most boring premise for a video game every. The goal is to build a fully functioning city and not be broke at the end of the year when the taxman comes calling. One thing that is constant with all the SimCity games is the goal.
