  • There WILL be a SimCity 5

    Please, for the love of God, do not **** this up.

    A set of seven leaked images assumed to be concept art for SimCity 5 have surfaced today, along with rumors indicating that the game is 30% of the way through development, and will be released in 2013.

    Cartoonization is getting popular in strategy games for some reason.

      Likely due to graphics getting close to the uncanny valley.
      We're sorry, the voices in my head are not available at this time. Please try back again soon.

        Looks like a really high rez SC3000 especially the water/beach. I always sorta like how that verison looked don't know why really.

        That being said I won't believe it until it comes and I won't buy until the simcity community gives it the thumbs up (managed to avoid the train wreck that was societies that way).

          Oh, and most of the images are just concept art. Maybe the actual game will be less cartoony?

              Sounds great, can't wait to see a new SimCity game...
              This space is empty... or is it?

                Am I the only one who builds a city, rebuilds it, rebuilds it, agonizing over equal-sized blocks, appropriate coverage, stupid ugly power lines, rebuild again, and then finally build half a city that I can live with only to get bored at the game?

                That's me in every Simcity, Tropico, Impressions, Tilted Mill, Anno, etc. game.

                  If this turns out like Civ V, I will die of depression.

                    SimCity 4, with the expansion, and some choice transportation mods (NAM, I think it was called), was perhaps the most compulsively playable game I've ever experienced, outside of the usual Civ/SMAC suspects.

                    It is a lot to live up to. Probably not a day one purchase, I'd wait to see what the community could do to mod things, but damn... I have been itching for a true city builder. CitiesXL had promise, but fell woefully short.

                      It's been nine years since SimCity 4 was released so they sure took their time about it. Still, I've been a fan of this series since it came out and will buy it if they make it.

                        There's a trailer on their website and probably some information... didn't read it yet

                          If the video gives hints to the actual gameplay, it will be very futuristic ...
                          looks really nice

                            Will it require Origin?

                              Almost certainly.
