These types of large expandable maps are what SimCity needs to make it even better than it already is.

The map size department is where Cities Skylines got it right. This can be frustrating when one just wishes to build a larger sprawling city rather than a small city that can only go up. For starters, SimCity comes with small map sizes available to build on. There are at least a few things I have discovered about SimCity that I do not like. Cities Skylines even with mods, still feels European with an old-style glaze to it (I’m gonna take a wild guess here and say this is probably due to the fact Cities Skylines was made over seas and not in America). And out of the box without the use of mods, default American style buildings, vehicles and train tracks makes SimCity feel like something I might find in my backyard.

For me, it just looks, feels and plays like a Pixar movie complete with a fantasy style rendering of a classic American city. With SimCity being American made, it shows.

In CS on my computer the edges of buildings for example cannot be rendered smooth as in SimCity even with a mod to do it.Ī final reason I like playing SimCity is….get ready for it…….drum roll please……….well, it’s American based! I didn’t think this would be such a big deal but after playing Cities Skylines for many days and hours I noticed I was beginning to feel a little culture shock. In Cities Skylines with mods, it takes a toll on my lower end computer and gpu. Even with lower in-game graphics settings the game still renders a fantastic looking game. These are all reasons I love what I see so far in SimCity 5.Īnother thing I like about SimCity is how well it seems to run on my lower end machine with a not-so-great graphics card (gts 250). And with the expansion packs, a player is allowed to direct and form the kind of city he/she would like to build, whether it be amusement oriented, a gambling touristic mecca, trading hub, futuristic style, etc it’s up to him or her. And for me the game is not filled with over-the-top repetitive or annoying sounds at least that I have discovered yet. They are light and fun as if I was a kid playing in a toy store with bells, whistles and thematic music to top it off. To me it’s as if the player is watching a quality Disney/Pixar movie animation unfold that you get to be a part of! The sounds in SimCity are also well done. Out of the box the colors are certainly rich, vibrant and more appealing in SimCity and the buildings and city models are fun to watch and hear. I think graphically speaking, SimCity looks better as a whole and the models are rendered cleaner than they are in Cities Skylines.

With the complete edition of SimCity in single player or offline mode, I have found the game pleasantly fun to play, slightly challenging (especially as one gets use to the various specializations available) but the game does not involve too much micro management to still have fun and for me the graphics and sounds have been a treat for the eyes and ears alike. The Goodįirst it is important to note that I have been playing the complete edition of SimCity with included expansion pack Cities of Tomorrow along with some others ( see the complete list here). Along the way I also hope to note a few similarities and differences as it relates to Cities Skylines. Now that I own a copy of SimCity 5 let me cut to the chase and tell you what I do like about SimCity and what I don’t like so much. Keep in mind that at the time I reviewed/experienced Cities Skylines, I did not own SimCity 5 so my comments related only to my experience with CS. Cities Skylines it should be noted has received rave reviews by many and even has been proclaimed by some the city builder SimCity should have been ( Read my experience here). And now that it’s been nearly three years since the initial release of SimCity 5, there has been a significant price drop on the complete edition of SimCity, so I have decided to jump in to see how the latest SimCity stacks up with Cities Skylines.

What SimCity could have been in 2017 SimCity Complete EditionĪlthough the mass of dust of displeasure over the forced multiplayer online only use in order to play SimCity 5 has mostly settled, Electronic Arts finally added single-player mode (offline mode) a year later.
