SimCity™ 2000 Special Edition

Dont ask me what a reticulating spline is but thats what gal who talks as you start off the Game say along with other gobbedly goop. Ahh memories of one of the greatest city builders around. Arcologies? and all sorts of neat stuff that version 3 and 4 lacked. With Sim Helicopter you could build a city and then fly right thru it though allowances had to be made for the tech at the time so if you built a zoo, it would look like farm animals in a pasture. But you owned this world thru and thru. I still have my originals with Streets of Sim City, a real letdown, SimCopter and all the thick guides that Maxis use to be famous for. If mine dosent work when I dust off the box I may have to download this here to replace the original CD.

No idea what the hype is all about, this works perfectly, flawless on windows 7.... no idea what people are moaning about.

SC2000 was a major breakthrough over the old SimCity, and it's importance and influence cannot be underestimated. But if you never played SimCity before - I would recommend starting with SC3000 - essentially the same, but much better usability.

need windows version

This was my first purchase from GOG and money well spent it was. I wasnt sure if this would run on Windows 7 but the executable that GOG gives you (DRM FREE!!!! XD) actually comes with DOSBOX built into it so it just works straight away, no need to faff around setting it up! I will now be buying all my games from GOG.
