Well, I was sitting around thinking about all the old PC games i used to play like Axis & Allies and SimCIty 2000. I started to wonder if I could play those old games on a modern system and thought about downloading it but I have a coule systems and thought it would be nice to put it on both since my son (9 years old) has never been exposed to these games. Finding SimCity 2000 so cheap, I thought it would be worth a try to see if it worked. Yes it does! It is so great to turn on a football or baseball game next to the computer and just kill time. Sports are so filled with commercials and downtime that this game is a great filler. You don't have to be "eyes open and glued to the screen" to play. If you are an old time gamer, try going back to these games, they are great. If you are new to them, go for it. My son really enjoys it as an off-pace game. Just like all games, it is a time waster. You wonder what happened to the last 5 hours of your life, but worth it.Read full review
I got SimCity 2000, the excellent old game of building cities. It runs VERY fast on newer computers, so even with a very small amount of yearly cash flow you can get lots of money fast. All around great game. I've spent countless hours playing it as a child and enjoy spending one or two more every couple of weeks.
Dated graphics, but mechanics are great. Fun to play.
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: New
The graphics are mid 90s at best, the game can be a little goofy but it's an enjoyable classic. It's fun game to play when bored, for kids it's some what educational in the fact that it teaches them the very basics of a city and public administration, don't look to deep in to that.
Hours of fun. Personally - can't get above certain levels. Haven't been able to try everything out yet. Recommended for just about anyone into puzzle/simulation games!!
