Yeah my system is getting closer to being obsolete. A 766, hopefully will last through next year but I am not holding my breathe.

There's a few new screenshots at http://simcity.ea.com/ though nothing special...

Awww... come on ADG! Post them! I'm too lazy!

(and at work so I shouldn't be drooling over the pictures anyway...)

I wonder if I'll be able to destroy the bridge and watch the cars plummet to their doom.

**FlameFlash** · October 15, 2002, 12:29

/me drools incoherently at the picture...

Hopefully...

Hmmm...seems like everyone inhere, only wants to buy the game to be able to destruct

(Can't wait to test the meteors

)

I wasn't good at SimCity, I usualy always run out of money by the year's end.

Now SimEarth, I was great at that, I usualy was able to get three civs to exodus before the sun exploded.

EDIT: BAD TYPOS...

Haven't tried that much...Never figured what the game was about...

I couldn't get into SimEarth... just didn't really understand the inner workings of the game, I guess...

Now SimAnt... that was a fun one...

**Dauphin** · October 15, 2002, 15:43

Anyone know how big the maps are going to be?

**FlameFlash** · October 15, 2002, 15:45

hopefully as big as your computer can handle...

SimEarth does have one hell of a learning curve, but after you understand it it works out fine. Nothing like building a civ and then crushing it with meteors and other disasters.

SimAnt was fun, but I never got into it.

They said, even with the best PC avaliable (for normal custumers), it's impossible to play the game zoomed as much out as possible, and with all details on...well...you can play the game...with 2 frames per second...But still...would be interesting to know how large the map can get...

**FlameFlash** · October 15, 2002, 15:49

Then of course, SimFarm... couldn't get into that one either... to me it was just a mini version of SimCity so I wanted to just go and play that instead.

Well, I wasn't talking about zooming out... I was talking about urban sprawl.

SimCity (time well spent compared to Civ?)
