The best SimCity for more casual gamers
On behalf of anyone else who has gone through that hellish nightmare: Finding your CD copy of SC3K won't run on modern operating systems, trying different compatibility settings, Run commands, VMing and every trick in the book without success... ...I think I can speak for us all when I say: At last. It's here. God bless you, GOG. Having grown up playing SimCity Classic, 2000, 3000 and 4, I always personally believed that 4 was the greatest. But while SC4's complexity and depth was one of its greatest strengths, at times those qualities were also its weaknesses. By comparison, SC3K had a blissful simplicity, a straightforward game that offered you enough to make a decent-sized, good-looking city with better graphics and detail than SC2K could achieve, but without those sometimes overbearing challenges of regional interdependence, demand management and development capping in SC4. For the casual gamer, I'd say SimCity 3000 provided a vastly more suitable gaming experience than its successor. That extra stylistic diversity that SC3K Unlimited (or UK Edition, as I grew up with) offered with its building sets was never matched in SC4 either, at least not in an official Maxis release. And as someone who spent many hours crafting visions in SC3K's Building Architect Tool, I forever missed it once I moved on (not helped by having never managed to get the SC4 equivalent to work). To be sitting here in 2016, on a brand new Windows 10 laptop, with this game running in front of me for the first time in probably nigh-on a decade... It's absolute bliss.
