Whats societies like? I have Sim City 4 and 200 around here somewhere. But a few summers ago, it was quite warm in Ireland (I think it hit 20*c

) and my desktop's cooling fan was making a lot of noise when I was playing it, next thing "pop" computer died and so did our hard disk.

SimCity 3000 and 4 here, with addons from simtropolis.com of course

(Great HK bats if you're looking for some decent high-rises)

After reading a couple reviews of Socs here and there, I don't think I'll ever buy it unless EA releases a seriously large expansion pack. I mean, what progress-minded company would reduce the number of features between releases and add-in random qualities into a population that needs only two types of transport?

If they're "The Sims-ing" it, they might as well make SimNeighbourhood if EA wants a game between a giant city management and simple life management game...oh well, guess it's all because Socs ain't Maxis

But yea, I'd rather buy Cities Unlimited. It actually looks cool

@Seattle: Wanna co-develop a city?

Used to play four but disc two has a tasty cyclic redundancy error. Attempting to download an ISO. Societies looks shocking from what I've seen but you never know.

shocking in a good way or a bad way?

SimCity Societies... They are trying to make an update that fixes the crashes that it makes every minute you load the game. If your population reaches over 30.000, basically your game is crashing in the first ten minutes you play. They have made 2 patches so far. They don't seem to work since I tested the Patch 2 before

.

This is why Maxis has better customer support.

Shocking is only good if followed by good. And it's no longer Simcity. It's SimSocieties.

Suntoucher, you are WRONG. WRONG. As Tilted Mills under Electronic Arts says, SimCity Societies.

Believe it or not even says on their forums. Link below:

gizgiz... sure.....

It won't work because I dont have a stupid Radeon 92... not 96

suntoucher · **Reply #14 on:** December 26, 2007, 08:04:45 am

Oh I know it's CALLED Simcity Societies. But it's not Simcity. Simcity was a city builder in which you control zones and is a brand name of Maxis.

Edit: Equivalent of calling a Boeing an Airbus, just because it has the name doesn't mean it is.
