So follow along with me (if you dare) as I try to recreate the city of Cincinnati inside SimCity 4. I looked at the NYC City Journal, where a guy is trying to recreate New York City – some amazing stuff.
It’s a weird obsession I have – when I drive around town, I look at different signs or buildings or road networks and think “How would this look inside SimCity?” (I know, I know, I said I was weird!).
Which led me back into trying some real world recreations. I couldn’t find my actual SimCity disc (just Rush Hour which wouldn’t install without the base game), so I bought a used copy of it off of Ebay for $10 and started playing. So recently (2010), I was getting back into SimCity. One of the things I’ve always been interested in was recreating real world places and areas. I got SimCity 4 (and soon after the expansion pack Rush Hour) back when they came out in 2003. My first memories of playing SimCity were playing the original game on my Uncle Dave’s computer while I was staying there while my parents were out of town. I have played SimCity since the beginning.
