In SimCity™ 4, you don’t just build your city; you breathe life into it. Sculpt mountains, dig riverbeds, and seed forests as you lay the groundwork for your creation. Then, use your god-like powers to construct the most realistic metropolis you can imagine.
Whether you want to build mansions on mountainsides or cross canyons with bridges, the impact of your decisions is immediate. But while each click of the mouse can create, it has equal capacity to destroy. Capping an erupting volcano might save your city, or it might reroute lava down busy city streets. Sending police to quell a riot might calm down the crowd, or it might spur even further anarchy. With every decision you make, your city and your Sims will respond – for better or for worse. It’s up to you to be their guide.
The SimCity 4 Deluxe Edition includes both SimCity 4 and the Rush Hour expansion pack, which gives you more control over your city’s transportation options, plus two bonus disasters: UFO attack and Autosaurus Wrecks.
We even included the exclusive Mac “Custom Tunes” feature that allows your iTunes library to be played in the game!

Its not bad
Graphics are a bit lacking.
game play is fun for the average game.
You meet your goals very quickly in standard mode and its near impossible in hard mode. Also, you cant keep growing like in games past. You max out your city to the boundries and thats it. Maybe add subway or adjust roads and such but you dont get to build large buildings, etc.
Worth buying if its under 15 bucks. Great game for 14 years or younger.

Still difficult
Although my all-time favorite SimCity game is SimCity 3000, this is definitely second place. Improved graphics, and plenty of micromanagement of taxes (among many), this game definitely is an exemplar in its genre. I have to say that it seems more difficult to have a cash-positive city in this game than previous titles, but perhaps it's just me.

Works!
I know the PC-Version and now I play the game on my MacBook. It works (maybe it works better with "medium quality"-graphics and effects).
Probably the best Sim City - ever. It's the extended version (so you can drive through your city). -
So much fun!
I've had hours of fun with this city simulator, and have yet to get bored. Definitely keeps you coming back for more. I've experienced a couple of crashes here and there, but I haven't been able to pin down the reason, but nothing that really hurt the gaming experience. Totally worth the price (especially if you get it on sale)!

Love Sim City, like this one
Having played every Sim City since the early days, I have great expectations for new versions. This was a welcome version but it wasn't all that I wanted. Certain elements of the game didn't have the "classic" feel I enjoyed with older versions although the graphics are superb.
