SimCity 2000
Review by Doodleheimer
"Building a city; The right way!"
Game Play-10/10
I really do not like managing my cities money, so I always put the infinite money code on. But then, I wanted a real challenge. I thought that if I had so much fun cheating, I would have so much more fun not cheating. It was fun. You must build the biggest city of all time, while maintaining your money and keeping your sims happy. This is so much better than the original Sim City. Do not get me wrong, the original Sim City was good, but this one is so much better.
Music-10/10
The music in Sim City 2000 is really good. Except when this one tune plays, I always think that something bad is going to happen to my city. I am not a wimp, it is just that that is the music that is always played during a disaster. I get scared even when I turn the disasters off.
Sound effects-9/10
The sound effects in Sim City 2000 are really good, but they can get out of control at times. What I mean by that is that there can be too many sound effects playing at one time. And the sound that the power lines make after you build them is pretty annoying too.
Fun Factor-10/10
I was literally stuck to my keyboard and chair after playing Sim City 2000 for hours at a time. That should tell you how much fun Sim City 2000 really is. If you do not believe me, try it for yourself. You will then see what I mean by what I have just mentioned a few lines up.
Graphics-9/10
The graphics in Sim City 2000 were really good, but they lacked variety. what if you wanted to build your own distinctive buildings with their own names. How did those houses get built so far away from the roads. And I wish that Sim City 2000 would give you more of a first-person perspective at building the city. But, whatever works for me, well, works for me.
Control-9/10
The mouse and the power lines were screwy at times, but overall they were pretty good.
Overall-10/10
I love Sim City 2000, despite some setbacks. So buy Sim City 2000 today. But only buy Sim City 2000 on the Computer. The other versions are very hard to controll seeing as how they do not have a mouse.
