Techy Thursdays: The All New Sim City



Credits: Mashable

As our world becomes increasingly social, even games that are social tend to pick up more users compared to the past, that's why games like "Draw Something" becomes a hit almost instantly.

So I guess when the team producing the new SimCity came together, they saw the need to have the game not only be a solo player game, they saw the need to make it social as well. The all new SimCity will have to be played online whereby you can come together with other players to create regions and you can work together to better each other's cities or otherwise. Interesting right?

Also, the graphics look more promising and the game now has more elements that make it closer to how the real world would be like. There are different sorts of sims, from blue collars to white collars to even homeless sims. Other things in the new revamp include social issues like air pollution, water pollution and so on depending on the city's industrial works, kinda like real world issues we face.



The more I read about the new stuff in the game, the more I'm itching to try it out! I'm liking the idea of the social issues incorporated into the game, that means more unexpected situations and problem solving. Also, it's important to be able to balance the works in your city and be a good mayor. If you're still not impressed, watch this trailer for the upcoming SimCity coming in 2013 and tell me what you think!
