Video Game Reviews of SimCity SocietiesCustomer Review: Very good gameplay, but nonetheless very patchy and flawed Summary: 1 StarsThe gameplay itself was very good, but this game is so full of glitches and bugs it's not funny. I have a relatively new computer with 2GB of RAM, a 256 MB Video Card and a 2 GHz processor, and the game still freezes up at random and is very slow.
I actually very much liked the changes made from previous versions. It was different but I found it gave me much more control over my city than previous versions, and a far greater ability to scape my city to my liking.
Unfortunately, the gameplay itself is outweighed by the many glitches it has. I had incredible trouble installing it, and when I began playing the game it froze after 15 minutes, requiring me to eject the disc and reboot my Computer.
Overall, I would say this game is not worth the money unless you are incredibly patient and cool-headed. It's a real pity this game was so well designed and thought out, but so full of bugs and flaws at the same time.
