    Whenever I play a game of SimCity 4 . . . . . . .

    I'm always in the red for too long of a period of time, financially speaking.
    This is where an awesome Mark Twain quote would be, but Apolyton says it would be too many lines. :(

    For most people this is an almost perfect imitation of real life. Is it not what Sim City is supposed to be?

    I didn't make this thread for a god-damn reality check!



    I wanted actual tips!

    Yeah, but if you'd posted in it OG, we'd all have +1s for the same rubbish posts.
    (Also, you may have actually received some worthwhile advice. )

    SimCity 4 was a big disappointment for me. Some good ideas, but still way too much of an empty shell that requires tons of modded files to get what you want and too much micromanagement. SC3000 was better.

    edit: wow - didn't mean to create a link out of SC3000.

    Ah yes, it was one of Markos' experiments. He wanted to see if it could be practical to link games with Amazon, in order to add ad-income. SC3000 was his test. The idea was scrapped, apparently, but the Amazon Link for SC3000 remains as a testimony

    I still have SC3000. I play SC3000 all the time. Ok, maybe not, but SC3000 is a great game.

    Is that the same SC3000 as the SC3000 I was thinking of purchasing at www.amazon.com? Or a different SC3000? There seem to be so many SC3000s around these days.

    This thread definitely deserves to be in the OG

    I sure hope that's a result of the auto-censor.
