@Smokescreened84 @Slash_out A lot of your "translations" are ridiculous strawmen.

@Tseng Yeah, that statement about 30% => core was complete trash. Glad others noticed :-)

Probably more X-COM content, but I'll be pleasantly surprised if it's a new 4x TBS game instead.

@Entropy730 @nukedysfunk @AliasterSlash True , true, good point. I think it's important people understand nuances like intellectual property rights though, and this seemed like a good opportunity to bring the issue up. It certainly revealed a gross misunderstanding on the part of the user @Malicx at the very least. Hopefully he understands the concept better now.

@AliasterSlash Technically you never have "owned" any game you didn't create yourself. You purchase the rights to use it.

@Ultramarinus That depends on your idea of what "sane" means. Some value aesthetics more than others. Apparently in your mind that makes them insane? Interesting. So, you have a aesthetics vs population trade off to mull over in Sim City. Big deal- It's been that way in all the previous titles also.

Nice review. That seals the buy now or buy later deal for me. I'll be waiting at least a month or 2 before deciding to dive back into good ole Sim City.
