SimCity
SimCity is a dynamic, living, visually engaging world unlike anything you've ever seen before! Build the city of your dreams and watch as the choices you make shape your city and change the lives of the Sims within it. As a true city simulator, you will see that very decision, big or small, right or wrong, has real consequences for your Sims.

This game is perfect for: casual gamers
I bought this game as soon as it came to PC, and haven't been REALLY disappointed with it...it doesn't exactly take very long to wear out its welcome, as the gameplay is quite cyclical, unlike that of The Sims 3 where there are enough events to keep gameplay interesting for awhile. With Sim City, you can cycle through two different regions within a hour of gameplay because everyone inevitably messes up their first region with too little energy or too many sick, uneducated folk. The sounds and music are quite nice, and very soothing. The graphics are somewhat hilarious at times with the tiniest of details being covered by EA, including the names of businesses which are downright funny most of the time. Overall, I would recommend this game for the casual gamer as a way to pass the time entertainingly...but simulation games are already repetitive, and this one is no outcast.

This game is perfect for: kid gamers
To start off, the biggest problem was EA deciding to make this online required, even though THIS IS SINGLE PLAYER PRIMARILY. The game launched with an astronomical amount of bugs. Don't believe the good reviews. Besides the bugs and always online, the city sizes are small, arguably smaller than Sim City 4, which I have. Do yourself a favor and just get Sim City 4, which is dirt cheap and better. Avoid this like cancer.

This game is perfect for: casual gamers
Let me get one thing straight: Don't listen to the other reports! When the game was released, too many people logged on causing the servers to go down. That problem is over! Everything is running smooth. It is the 2nd best game I have ever played in my whole gaming career! It is a loyal game that always is ready for you to play. Sure, the city sizes are sorta small, but it is still such a amazing game! Graphic quality is perfect, gameplay is perfect, everything is perfect! You will never get bored of this Simcity!

This game is perfect for: kid gamers
This plays like a face book game because you have to be online ALL THE TIME. Online is nothing but junk. There is no social part of the game where you see other players running around. You cant connect to all your city's for some reason, you can have a city that makes money for hours then all of a sudden without change your city goes into the red. Traffic will clog up because ai will allow lane changes where vehicles become sideways in the street, all the time. They have ruined sim city no matter how good anyone says it is. graphics are sub par for what games do today. I bought the silly 79.99 version and will never buy another EA game except Battlefield 4 I have gave this so called social game a chance for two weeks and hate it.

This game is perfect for: casual gamers
The gameplay experience of the game was amazing, I couldn't believe how much the game had changed. I felt as if it were a new game while still keeping that overall simcity feel. Most of the people who give it bad ratings are just mad about the launch, and want to express their hatred for the game launch, but the severs are all up and running now. It would be nice to have an offline mode, but i can deal with it because most of the time I am playing online with my friends.
