In the long history of Sim City, this game hit the balance of complexity and fun better than any other version. It is complex enough that players will continue to learn about the game long after purchasing, but accessible enough that anyone can play. City building is coupled with vehicle based missions which allow the player to explore the city they have built by taking to the streets. Also this game has a gigantic library of mods out that span years and years of fanaticism from hundreds and hundreds of talented content producers. This game, and this game alone, they got EVERYTHING right. Sim City has never been this good.. and it never will again.
Great game with beutiful graphics but this is way to expensive for so little gameplay. Actual play time is 2 to 6 hrs.
Wing Commander Acadamy allows you to choose all the paramaters of the combat experience from the first two WC games. There is no plot, only the tools to create your own battle situations. You can stack the odds against you and try to win out, or fly smooth easy missions. On the up side, this becomes a great solution for a "quick game" of WC. On the down side, it's not engrossing like the other entries in the series. I really like this game. Makeing up battles and my own story lines to go with them was a lot of fun. However it's a mistake to buy this before any of the other entries in the series. Good luck cadets. Make us proud.
Secret Agent is a charming platformer. The level design is really well done with some fun items to collect and things to see. Some parts of the gameplay are somewhat dated. For example: shooting more advanced enemys makes them turn into completly different people before defeating them. Apart from some of those old technical work-arounds, this is still a fun game. Most of us who were playing shareware remember the first episode: "Hunt for the Red Rock Rover". It's nice to see the whole package on sale. Cheers gog!
