whilst driving to norwich yesterday afternoon i got a sudden urge to play this, particularly the "2000" incarnation.
has anyone ever played sim city 3000 or 4? these seem to be pretty popular in the mininova search results. i'm going to keep it old school for now

Used to love the 2000 game. Had a game once that went the whole distance, you know, into the year 2050 or something, and I had a ridiculous population of 400,000,000 or something.
Tried it more recently and failed miserably.

I liked the very first one on the Amiga, you could hold down SHIFT and type CASH to give yourself more money...not that I'm a cheat or anything

Never played the more recent ones but 2000 was ace. Until you had to try and place underground stuff like pipes and subways anyway. That was stupidly hard to click in the right place.
I used to like Building Prisons and then putting Schools next to them. I'd pretend that they were sex offender prisons.

I'm enjoying this. The town of FlabbyHo is flourishing. Population 15050.

I've never played this. Ben's prison next to school idea has inspired me to download it
