This isn't a SimCity Game. With high hopes and $45.00 bucks I ran off to my local Fred Meyer to buy this game the day it came out.

I could go into great detail about why this game isn't a Sim City game, but why waste any more time on it. Simple put, this isn't a SimCity game so don't waste your money. Wait for it ht the bargin bin or pick it up at a garage sale.
