Gamespy-Preview: Hands On With SimCity

GS:It's kind of hard for me to write about playing the new SimCity, because in most respects it's exactly what you think it is: a prettier, more detailed version of the classic city simulator on a somewhat smaller scale. I feel like most of the nitty-gritty is stating the obvious: I spent my starting budget of $50,000 to put down roads, placed power generators and water towers, garbage dumps and police and fire stations, hospitals and a city hall. Zoning residential, commercial, and industrial areas is free this time, guided by roads.

Need for Speed as well. Here's to hope that the new one will be a return to form for the franchise.

Dead Space was the worst ruining... micro transactions in a full price game, with co op that was mandatory to get all the story and access to certain areas. Sure Rock Band was oversaturated, and Burnout was basically killed off even though it sold a ton on PS3 back in the day.

Wow kudos EA! no one can kill a franchisee like you can kill a franchises.

lptmg3204d ago

Sadly, Rock Band died because of Activision shoving one Guitar Hero every 3 months

Madden Football 2006-2018 2018-?

showtimefolks3205d ago

chrono12053205d ago

Or a reboot, with all the fun of the first one.

showtimefolks3204d ago

PhoenixUp3205d ago

Dead Space, NBA Live, & Rock Band

I really liked Burnout and Need for speed and thought no one will able to destroy this game.....I was WRONG!
