SimCity™ 2000 Special Edition

This is the only simulator I've ever enjoyed playing. I've sat for days/weeks working on building sprawling metropolises and loved every minute of it. This game is a must buy as soon as my budget allows it.

While the audio and graphics are rather dated, SimCity 2000 is addictive as it was decades ago.

Despite its flaws, it's still easily the best of the series, and still a game I enjoyed playing until I couldn't get it running on the new OSes. Everything that made the original good is multiplied here, without adding too much crap from the later games. It's manageable. It's digestible. It's uncomplicated. And it's got a lot going for it. I haven't played the newest one (the one where they left off the number), and though Sim City 4 came close to recreating the magic, even it and all its expansions didn't beat this one.

I remember getting this game for Christmas sometime I think 12 years ago and spending endless hours of playing it. I might still have the original CD somewhere but I do not know for sure. A great game that I have a lot of good memories from and a part from the nostalgic aspects I still find it great fun to try build better and better cities

You don't get much better than an original sim city, especially SimCity 2000, this game has made the basis for all the simCity's to follow, and have made the world of developing a old to new society a epic challenge from when you first start off with your first 50,000 to your big bucks. Just like most economic games it about how you can improve life, economy, and safety of your city and still make a profit. While not as great as SimCity 3000 or 4. This game still has a cutting edge difficulty that keeps you hooked. And crashes far less then its older brothers.
