    Simcity franchise is ruined

    I'm not sure to which audience the developers and publishers were aiming for. It's a kid style game. Nothing less. I don't even feel like describing each category(graphics, sound, gameplay etc). I played it with the n... Read Full Review

    Not a Sim City game, nor pure simulation.

    With this game, sure, you can have fun designing the city, since it does provide a variety of buildings. In that side you can go and do something fun, like entertaining the game instead of you getting entertained. ... Read Full Review

    Not as bad as the Gamespot reviewer says...

    Once you get into this game its quite good really. Ok I agree it's not SimCity and shouldn't have that in its title. What I would say is that the game has amazing detail. From the very very pretty animated graphics to th... Read Full Review

    What we have here, is failure to communicate!

    EA has produced a crapy game, Why you might ask, because they failed to listen and communicate with fans. All the ideas of what the sequal to simcity should or could be is out there. They just did not listen or care abou... Read Full Review

    I understand how much difficulties EA the publisher was facing when they were preparing to package this game for markets. They know this game would be a completely different from what the SC fans expect. That's why they ... Read Full Review

    It's simply a rip-off

    This is quite frankly one of the most disastrous game i have ever played. First of all let me say that the game is titled SIMCITY Societies but it was clearly titled in this way to rip-off customers because this game is... Read Full Review

    Not a Simcity game, but still fun to play.

    When EA started showing previews of Simcity Societies months ago, my first reaction was that they should have chosen another name for it. I still believe that after playing the game and reading other gamers reviews. ... Read Full Review

    If there is any challenge to this game, it's the learning curve: trying to forget reality and learning the way of SCS...

    Hopefully this doesn't come off as a tirade, but it probably is. What's Wrong With This? When Will Wright said that he wanted to simplify the Sim City series because, to paraphrase, it had worked itself into a dead... Read Full Review
