wtf why does it need batteries at all

the circle pad doesn't plug into the 3ds it just cradles it and communicates through the infrared port.

would you say SC4 has aged well? more importantly, would you say it's a good "entry-level" title?

deep dish peat moss

Sim City 4 is and always will be the best city builder ever made. The only way to top it would be to re-make it exactly the same but with some of the bigger mods like NAM built in and tighten up the graphics on level 3. It's the best entry level city builder because it's like asking whether you should start by reading hemingway or stephanie meyer

Scaly Haylie

does it effectively teach you how to play it or not, i guess, is my question

deep dish peat moss

There's no tutorial or anything, but success isn't very complicated, the complex part is making your city do exactly what you want it to do.

http://www.simtropolis.com/omnibus/_/simcity-4/tutorials/making-money-the-easy-way-r102
this 3 page guide will teach you everything you need to know to make enough money with your cities to experiment and build huge regions and cities.

If anyone else in byob starts playing sim city 4, i will also start playing it again. It'sa really good game, and girls think it's sexy.

Scaly Haylie

ehhhhhh i think i'll just wait for skylines to come out, the whole no tutorial thing is kind of a motivation killer

e: y'know what that's not fair. thanks for the link, i'll give SC4 a shot

i didn't hate 5 and i'd almost say it's a better entry level game to the genre, by the time you realize all the things 5 lacks, 4 is right there waiting for you.

it's pretty fun, the real time combat is well done. the writing is good which is a plus since there's a lot of reading in the game. i died already so i'll have to give it another shot tomorrow.

Cities Skylines is made by the guys who made Cities XL which was no good, and then they made Cities XXL which was even less good.

deep dish peat moss

They always have good trailers and then the game is shallow and boring and barely runs on anything, and as soon as you get a sizable city everything starts crashing and stops working. they\ve released the same game twice now and the second time their big selling point was that they fixed all the bugs and crashing and memory leak issues, but it was literally the exact same engine and still had all of the same bugs and crashing and memory leak issues.

actually no. it's by paradox, but i can see why the title might cause some confusion.

paradox is a publisher. they don't develop many games. You're right though it's not the Cities XL guys, it's the Cities in Motions guys which was another bad city builder that wasn't even a real city builder. Cities XL/XXL was a better game than CiM 1/2 it just had an unplayable engine.

I really wish there were good city builders that weren't Sim City 4 because I have played it way too much. I've researched this extensively but there's nothing that is as good. I have fun with Banished and Anno but they aren't Sim City
