SIMCity 4 THE BEST City building game EVER~!

Yes the isometric 3D graphics are outdated, but to this day no modern City builder has yet to over throne SC4's greatness... especially if your game is heavily modded.

SC4 is definitely more fun with Mods instead of just being left on Vanilla trust me.

That depends do you like to get repeatedly kicked in the groin only to block at one point and slash the person who has been kicking you in the groin's throat?

If yes then this is game for you! It's a pretty difficult game which hates your guts but once you manage to wrangle some form of control; It's payback time.

You'll want to at least add the NAM mod and take advantage of the new pathing algorithms for your Sims so they can get back and forth to work more efficiently. Trust me - You want that. :)

SimCity 4 is still the #1 City Building game. It's over a decade old and it still beats anything that has come against it. There are, of course, people who prefer different sorts of city building games. But, if you want to be able to build huge, detailed, cities, and connect them together so they can share jobs, resources and the like, SimCity 4 is the only game in town.

With mods, it becomes a city-builder dream's come true.

I would suggest you use this mod:

http://community.simtropolis.com/files/file/21318-radical-ordinance-v2-0/

With this thing installed along with the NAM's better pathing system working in unison, you'll see you cities blossom in no time at all.

Also to solve money problems get this mod:

Sim city is a fun game, if you like building large scale cities, then have half the town have a strike against you for cutting loans when you are RUNNING OUT OF MONEY. And then you'll be like "Oh you want a problem?! ILL SHOW YOU A PROBLEM" and go on a massive killing spree that involves tornados, volcanos, ufo's, robots, more robots, ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ godzilla, and lightning, all while watching everything you made, destroyed, while doing your best evil laugh that you practiced for a while. and then resetting.

People don't come over to my house anymore.

Seriously though, its a fun game on its own, even with the expansions. I recomend.

Pretty much this. Its a blast to plan and create the perfect city in spite of the terrible one you live in showing up whatever city planners are in charge. Solving various city and intercity issues that arrise.
And when it all finally goes tits up you can watch it all burn in a satisfying cathartic fireball for all the troubles thouse little eletronic bastards caused you.

That is up untill you push the obliterate button and you hear that faint final scream of horror and you realise just how much of a terrible person you really are.

[[EZ] can i meepo?]

You should check out Cities: Skylines that is coming out next month. You can build huge cities as well and it looks really amazing from the simulation point of view. Check out their facebook, they are really active with the community and implementing good tools for modderes.

I feel like Simcity 4 is somewhat like what CoD4 was to shooters it was leap and bounds ahead of it's compition and still to this day is, no other city building game really compares. I will agree with what meepo said check out Skylines, it was heavily talked about on the Simcity community sites as having a lot of potential.

This game is definitely worth playing. :)
