Overall, SimCity Deluxe for iOS is a great time. EA Mobile added a bunch of new interesting features that add to the game’s overall experience. You can play several different types of scenarios, from fending off global apocalypse to preparing your city to host “World Games” (not Olympics!). ...

Fill up your iPod Touch or iPhone with great EA Games – they are currently on sale as EA is knocking down up to 80% off of their games for their Back to School sale.* Can’t believe SimCity Deluxe is already marked down.* But then again, I was able to get it free thanks to winning an EA Mobile...

Sunset Valley Times picked up on a video in which french company Enodo showcased their new CryEngine2 game engine and what it can do for a city like environment. If you ever played Crysis, you should be familiar with the eye-popping graphics and design. It’s a breathtaking video which summons...

SimCity Deluxe is a huge game with a similarly large learning curve. The main thing that holds it back from being an ideal version of the beloved franchise is the iPhone’s screen size. Short of EA porting it to the iPad (which is happening sometime this summer), there’s no getting around that...

Controls aside, SimCity Deluxe is built from sturdy stuff. The aim, of course, is to create an environment where both business and industry thrive, which in turn allows your town’s population to surge. Achieving this urban sprawl means dividing your playtime* into two main actions: zoning...

A portion of a review from AppAdvice: Sim City Deluxe is thankfully redesigned, and gives a much more enjoyable experience. Sim City is a classic game that didn’t feel right on the iPhone in its first incarnation, but it feels right at home in this version. The game is designed well in most...

SimCity Deluxe is a beautiful game sporting the graphics from SimCity 4, but I wished they could of supported the full screen of the iPad.* It’s depressing to see these screens.* Kudos to Jake from the iPad Forums for providing these.* Be sure to click the actual image for a proper display (as it’s...

If everything you dreamed of as a kid has always been to look out of your office window and a city of your own grow and prosper, SimCity Deluxe is a must have game. It’s amazingly full-featured, both in content and in graphics. There’s nothing like watching aliens decimate buildings you worked...

A portion of a review from TouchGen: All in all the game will probably satisfy the all-time Sim City fans out there; but if you are a new comer, like me, I would suggest you start learning how to play it somewhere else, or you get a friend to explain it to you, because $6.99 might be a lot to...

One of the first things you’ll notice about SimCity*Deluxe,*are fast loading times and a very smooth gameplay experience. When you switch from one game screen to the other you won’t have to wait for long loading screens which enables you to concentrate and return to the main gameplay area...

Just discovered from the forums of TouchArcade that EA Mobile has released SimCity Deluxe on the App Store for the price of $6.99.* Sounds great…as much as I want to get it I have to be real careful on how I spend my money so I’m going to wait for a price drop.* Expect a ton of reviews and videos...

I can’t wait to download this game to my iPhone http://www.simprograms.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif The title is deceptive, because it’s more of a sequel than merely a respray with a fresh lick of paint. That’s not to say the graphics haven’t been updated. Zooming into...

If you’ve yet to play SimCity 4, well my friend, you haven’t lived your life to it’s fullest!* Valve has recently added the Deluxe version of the game (which features SimCity 4 and Rush Hour) to their Steam client.* I highly recommend you checking this out if you haven’t, best $19.99 you’ll ever...

EA (in an attempt to get people to purchase a game not by Maxis) has yet again lowered the price on Simcity (for the iPhone) to a*staggering*$2.99.* You can purchase this almost free Simcity iPhone Game at the App Store Thanks to InfiniteSims for the tip!

A job listing spotted by Superannuation asks for a development director for an unannounced “next-generation online simulation game” at the Maxis studio in Emeryville, California. Although specifics on the project are unknown, EA is clearly looking for an experienced individual to help lead...

http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4078/4796598487_9897d4d31c_o.png I just love EA’s trickery.* You have to purchase the game for your phone in order to win, however they claim that no purchase is necessary.* Love the irony here. Download the SimCity(TM) Deluxe mobile game to be automatically...

SimCity Deluxe is a reboot of the original game in every respect, and while most franchises would suffer from trolling out the same old gameplay, something as infinitely playable and enjoyable as SimCity doesn’t suffer in the same way. That it’s so easy to pick up and play on a mobile...
