Sim City 4
Sim City 4 is the latest installment in Will Wright's Sim City series. This edition includes impressive new features, such as a powerful landscape editor, new city management techniques, and the regional city system.
Like its predecessors, the player is charged with building a city from the ground up: laying streets and roads, zoning for industrial, commercial, and residential buildings, and making sure that the citizens (or sims) are content, all while trying to keep the city in the black. New to the series are civic buildings that only cover small areas, forcing the player to build around them. SC4 also incorporates a new, incredibly detailed traffic algorithm, forcing the player to put a great deal of thought into city layout. The new region mode allows the player to create multiple cities in the same region, which allows for trade and even inter-city travel for the sims.
These new additions combined with the proven formulas of the past make Sim City 4 a much more difficult, yet much more rewarding city building game for gamers of all types.

Bottom Line: Play it! Sim City 4, was the best out of all.
I love the graphics but the best part is that you have to build citys on an entire region. There are also many more terrain tools. But this game holds a higher challenge and is alot more realistic then any other. A great feature about this game also is the missions. Your missions depend on what the city thinks about you. The way the city thinks about you is called the mayor rating. I would give it the same review as SS3000 exept the fire thing is taken out. 10/10 Learning Curve: Takes a while
Gameplay:
Graphics:
Replay Value:
Fun Factor:
