Come on then, with the balls up of 5, who's dug 4 out the woodwork and lost hours to it already?

I finally found it and got it installed last night, and i've been kicked out as mayor 4 times already.

On PC, Oblivion and Sim City 4 is all I play currently...

Currently got a nice little mountainside group of villages going as my main city I'm doing - apart from the constant complaints about too many roads, not enough streets it's going well, lots of mountain pass roads to hoon the various MySim cars down which is what really matters.

TBH, in terms of gameplay features, SC4 is a lot better - I wouldn't swap to SC5 even if it was offline capable.

This is it, 3000 people, running a healthy 500 simoloean profit per month.

daft Q. but can you play sim city on a non gaming PC i.e. a HP laptop?

or will it look and behave terribly...?

alternatively are there laptop friendly sim games that don't suffer too much? windows 8 OS btw

It's a pretty old game now so anything moderately newish should have no problems running it.

I just purchased it the other week from Steam. Love it so far although my first few cities have been money pits!... The current one I'm working on is very, very close to turning a profit so I'm very happy with it.
