I honestly think that as far as the simulation and the fun in the game is concerned, SC3k pretty much blows everything else out of the water. Until then, I must say that SC4 in its current state on my hard drive is the worst of the four that I've played. SC4 is awesome, with awesome custom content pushing it to limits I'm fairly certain no one imagined ten years ago at launch, but with 3 gigs of downloads in my plugins folder, it has a horrid loading time and a horrid crash-to-desktop problem that clearing out at least two thirds of the junk in there will probably help solve. SC3K was fun, too, and while the graphics were certainly better, I'm not sure that I can say it's a better game than SC2K. I spent a lot of nights at my friend's house playing that game. I loved SC2K, and I found that the most challenging one to play. I never played SC:S, and I will not play SC2013 while it's held hostage behind Origin, so I can't say whether or not those two are crummy games. I chose SC:S as the worst, but honestly, I cannot truthfully answer that question.

Plus, the manual was even cool! I want to enjoy playing a game, and let's face it, the SimCity games are games, and if I am forced to choose a favorite video game of all time, I would absolutely choose the SNES SimCity without hesitation. But, the music was cool, the scenarios were interesting with interesting secondary problems to solve, and there was still a fair amount of challenge in the game if you really went looking for it.

Yeah, it's simple, there aren't any hills or custom content or even a terrain editor, and if you use the 999,999 cheat code it's incredibly easy. It was the first video game I ever played, and even playing it now on the Wii (Virtual Console yay!), it makes me feel happy. I went with the original SimCity as well for my favorite, but I played the SNES version, so I'll state my reasons for that particular iteration. Note that I consider 2K to still be the best 'Sim City' experience. SC4 wasn't even the best game the year it came out. Sure Simcity 4 is great.but in its day, the original was leaps and bounds superior to all its competition in gaming. The biggest competition SC1 had was King's Quest, Ultima 2, and Bard's Tale! Nothing even scratched the surface of the greatness SC1 was until Sid Meier and his Civilization 1 came along about a year later. The idea that you could simulate a city was (and still is) thinking way outside the box for what you would expect from a game. The graphics were extraordinary for EGA (yes, young tike, before VGA was EGA.and before that CGA). The ability to print out your city on your fine dot-matrix printer was mind-blowing. For those that were not there.think Cell Phone revolutionary. Those who were there know what I'm talking about. Didn't like how those bugs were so bad so that we had to mod, but I guess the modding was well done and I am glad so many of you are great programmers to do that stuff.īest: Original Simcity for PC, circa 1989/1990 SimCity 4 I was upset by the original industrial bug, traffic disappearing, long term commercial skyscraper bug I could never get commercial high rises my tallest building was always that stupid big white condo, oh ya and the dreaded grain terminals I used to try to avoid those things as much as possible but seemed they would keep coming back I had nightmares about those thing dam grain terminals on every effin corner. Played Sim City 3000 unlimited the most, I loved the 3 city sets, and all the different maps available at the time, and good traffic but freeway looked stupid I always wondered wtf was inside that freeway? I actually liked societies thought it added other stuff more societal stuff though which I guess doesn't have much to do with city planning Worst: original simcity I couldn't play that now those stupid boxes and black dots for traffic.
