Hey Trans, will the next TET not have a sucky name?


Considering that someone bitches about every name no matter what it is?

Probably not.

Yeah, I recommend starting from the first one on DOS and moving on through the series, watching as it slowly degenerates into this cartooney game less about realism, and more about fun.

I dunno, it seems to get Better up to SimCity 4.

Then again, I never could manage 2000, so maybe it did get easier over time.

Nope. It was mostly about keeping a balance between zone types, making sure there were police, and balancing the budget.

SimCity 4 has been my favorite in all respects save one: SC2K allowed for water above sea level and... most importantly... waterfalls.

When I was 7 or 8 and SC2K was only the second ever "real" computer game I'd ever owned, you have no idea how many hours of enjoyment I received from waterfalls.

SC2K was awesome. I'd love to see something like that for the newer ones, but it wouldn't be nearly as simple.

I think there's a mod for SC4 waterfalls.

I spent most of my early-simcity time with 3000. Was fun.

I need to hunt down 2000 and work out how to play it, the graphical style of it just seems so nice to me. :P

No one needs any of your fancy-smancy 3D graphic waterfalls, Fox.

Yeah, I spent a lot of time on SC3000 when I was younger. That and StarCraft...

Someone just advocated forced labor as a punishment for undocumented immigration.
