Bet this one adds a new mall and two utilities. Maybe a slight graphics change for luxury houses. That is the problem with Sim City, they release minor patches every few years, when most people are expecting a fully new game. I guess they aren't really marketing towards the hardcore gamer though. Moreso the Madden gamer that just wants an annual update. To each their own.

Yup. That's how I felt. I am tired of this b.s. When I buy a game, I want it to be mine, and I do not want anyone monitoring my gaming activities.
nats : I know how you feel, sure it reduces piracy but' always on-line' is annoying as hell. even more so for me seeing as the net connections here aren't as fast or as reliable.

I played Sim city 2000 and 3000 ,simcity 3k was one of the first games I played, I still do occasionally. I found 4 to be terrible, no challenge and hated the fact that I was no longer zoning but building individual places. but happy to know a new SimCity is coming. Hoping for the best. ( with EA you can never be sure )
I love Simcity 4. It's the perfect balance of simulation and "fun". As for the new one - I'm expecting the worst so I can save myself from dissapointment. With the way EA has been manhandling Maxis brand games in the past few years. And with Will Wright gone no future games will really be "Maxis" games as we used to know them.
I do like the new resource/person/traffic system they've been peddling. Perhaps if the game is sufficiently moddable it might strike true with the community.
