WOO!

Thought this day would never come.

Will update my computer for this game!! Though lets hope if it is multiformat it won't impede in any way of the PC version.

[Nyx]

Awesome news!

[Row]

If it's at the very least as complex as 4 I will build a new PC for this game

[Dragonzord]

Because I can't imagine the previous 2 sim city games working on a console? Maybe the Wii.

worked just fine on the SNES

[speedpop]

More joy.

[ULTROS!]

Hype.

Because I can't imagine the previous 2 sim city games working on a console? Maybe the Wii.

Sim City 2000 is on PS1, and is a PSone/PSN game.

[massoluk]

Oh my, will get this.

/Origin exclusive I bet, sad panda.

[Pachael]

So hype, I can't wait for 2013 already :D

[BishopLamont]

So far away...

[toythatkills]

So hype, I can't wait for 2013 already :D

Damn leap year. ONE EXTRA DAY TO WAIT

[TreasureHunterG]

GOD BLESS YOU MAXIS!

[jambo]

Thank you based Maxis

[Spiegel]

So far away...

It should release in early 2013. The article mentions that the game is aproximately one year away.

[Thoraxes]

Yesssss finally!

[Window]

Only question is what took so long? Was Simcity 4 not that successful?

[Calavera520]

awesome news. any other details?

[Log4Girlz]

I wish the game looked like the artwork, maybe like a stylized cell-shading.

[Agent Icebeezy]

MOTHERFUCKING YES!

[AngryMoth]

Awesome. I spent a ridiculous amount of time with 2/3. *Prays for mac version*

[TedNindo]

What I meant was is that it should be a PC games first. Like all the Sim City games before it. And they can port it to anything else later. Because if they do it the other way around the PC game always suffers. And Sim City is at heart a PC game.





Anyway.... HYPE!!!! MAXIS ROCKS ACCORDING TO CITY BLOCKS!

[kvn]

Galactically awesome. Give it to me now.

[Americanmushroom]

day 1

[Katana_Strikes]

Only question is what took so long? Was Simcity 4 not that successful?

Sim City Societies happened.

[TheLucifer]

I'm almost crying. I'm still playing with SimCity 4, I'd be happy even with a graphical update and some new buildings. Hell, just give me one more type of tree and that would be enough.

I just hope it won't turn into some Facebook crap.

[Black-Box]

Im keeping my hype low for now....I don't want to be fooled.

[Sephiroth503]

Actually think I might boot up Sim City 4 again.

Remember it getting a bit unstable on me, any good mods out there (performance wise and others)?

I remember downloading unique buildings that people made. Some of them absolutely broke the game.

[Boss Doggie]

I'm surprised at the amount of people who didn't play 4.

GO GET IT NOW.

Only question is what took so long? Was Simcity 4 not that successful?

It was successful but apparently Will Wright wanted to tap to the casual audience (Societies) because 4 was rather too difficult.

[Sarcasm]

Looks like I will have to get a desktop for this.

[red_13th]

You've got to be fucking kidding me.
I need this so bad.

[Window]

Sim City Societies happened.

This is the first I'm hearing of this game. How was it/Worth trying?

[Axiom]

My favourite version of the original SimCity was on the Super Nintendo, but granted Nintendo themselves developed that. SimCity 2000 was handled by someone else and didn't work out so well.

I'd pick up a PC version and one for a dedicated handheld if it isn't too terrible.

I don't see any reason why it couldn't work on consoles interface wise, and given how they've done The Sims games I don't think the PC version will be scaled back in terms of design. How well did the Tropico games work on consoles? Civ Rev was pretty good (and helped make Civ V a better game)

[ToxicAdam]

According to the job listing I put up in my thread:

Playstation 3, Xbox 360, Wii, Online Multiplayer, Mac OS X, Windows

[Quadrangulum]

I hope it runs better than 4.

[Dennis]

CHOKING NEWS

better get that smog level down!


Up to the top of the wanted list you go SimCity!

Oh, how I have waited for a new SimCity game.


Watch it be some kind of social media crap.

[DaBuddaDa]

Watch it be some kind of social media crap.

You should read the translated article. It's not that.

[Lumine]

Err.., so is this actually confirmed or are people simply speculating that this concept art could potentionally be part of a new sim city somewhere in the distant future...?

[Dennis]

You should read the translated article.

I got distracted....what with all the pretty screenshots. Who can blame me.

[Neuromancer]

According to the job listing I put up in my thread:

Sweet!

[Nirolak]

There will be a full unveil on March 6th at EA's GDC conference judging by their very obvious hints.

[ElyrionX]

oh my fucking god

[CharliePants]

Yes! It's been way too long.

[Sonicbug]

*squeeee*

Oh god.... I want this for my computer but no way it'll run it. =( I need a new computer before this comes out.

Maxis, you'd better not fuck this up!

[lawblob]

Very excited. Never played IV, but im ready to jump back into the series.

[Boss Doggie]

Hopefully it's not dumbed down.

[ToxicAdam]

Hopefully it's not dumbed down.

I think it will be like the Civ games. You can pick whatever experience you want by the platform you choose. ( PC > HD Consoles > Wii > mobile/Facebook)

[Suairyu]

worked just fine on the SNES

Guys he said the "previous two".

I certainly couldn't see something of SimCity 4's complexity working well on a console.

God I want to play some SimCity 4 now. Little chance of V living up to it.

[Dedication Through Light]

Thank goodness if it comes to PS3, though I may, like Sims double dip on console and PC version...if I can buy a new laptop.

This is great, now to hope 2013 brings Sims 4.

[JoeBoy101]

Not only is it SimCity, it looks like classic SimCity. Not that SimCity Societies bullshit.

Woo-Hoo!

[StuBurns]

It looks pretty amazing from those screens. I hope it looks like it, that art deco building is slick.

EDIT: Damn, it'll be Origin exclusive. Looks like my hold out is done.

[Deques]

A true successor to Sim City 4?
My heart! Can't handle the pressure
