Tell me why I shouldn't get City Life....

Because it's crap? :p

I really hate the entire classes thing. Just doesn't fit somehow.

Sim City is better.
 
Try the demo. Not too big a download at 492MB.

I tryed that and got an error when i tryed to play it.

there's 3 different versions, of City Life, normal, world edition and 2008 edition, are the latter all expansion packs or do they work on there own? and what improvements to have over the vanilla version?

Tycoon City: New York was a good city builder/management game if your looking for other options.
Hadn't heard about this one. I've just ordered it to give it a go. Only £8 so if it's crap I won't shed any tears. Reviews says it's a good game with stunning graphics but little management making it far too easy. SimCity Societies anyone?
 
Nothing wrong with Sim City 4 graphics imo. It's still the best city simulation game their is regardless.

It's all too small. It needs to be 3d with gorgeous skies and detailed characters. Great gameplay though; hard to improve.
 
my girlfriend was looking forward to this game, she likes the Sims, settlers and SimCity.

She got it and played it for half a day, and gave up on it. She expected a SimCity style gameplay, but it's not, it's to micro intensive, and you have to place each and every building, she found it frustrating and slow.
 
so with Tycoon City: New York do you actually build the city from scratch or just start with new York how it already is and improve it?

No 3d will ruin it.
As it did with many rts games that went 2d-3d.
2d ***.


Simcity 4 for ever :D (imo).




City's lifes's just, well, boring, you build a few cities play it for 10 hours or so and never touch it again, it's repeative.
Doesn't have it's unique problems with each city like sc4, eg a single very bad spot in your transportation system or a cloud of pollution or full schools. Besides city's look similair, whereas in sc4, every city is different if you know what you're doing.

Ideally I'd like sc4 but even more advanced transportation options than with all current mods out there, and a modern 2d engine supporting 3dmodels like it does now ( so I can download over 2000 new buildings, mods, roads, etc again). And even tougher to play and even more attention to traffic, polution (eg. introduce new ways of countering lets say noise pollution), etc...

So Sc4, but then prettier but not 3d, and even more advanced and customizable and detailed.
 
I agree that total 3D would ruin Sim City. It looks good how it is imo. The gameplay can't be beaten, so why even bother about the graphics anyway?
