But is it worth it for £7.50?
It's an okay game, but it lagged horrifically once I had a decent sized city.
Wasn't this the game where the only way to win was by setting up a massive oil industry?
I like this game a lot. However, I got the previous version, and I'm trying to find out from Steam Support whether the 50% loyalty bonus from owning the first one applies to the second game during this sale. I'll gladly get it for $5, if I can. Supposedly the 2011 version fixes some of the memory leaks and re-enables all the content that used to be MMO-only, so it performs a lot better.
It's a pretty decent game. The best part about it though is the soundtrack.

It's a unique game that's sort of based upon a management system and keep a city flowing. More SimCity 2000 / 3000 without all the annoying advisors and whatsnot. It's really though for it to go tits up in that game.
Didn't Cities XL (not 2011) have a sale like a week ago.
I've heard this had little strategy in it. Does it?

Fucking traffic problems.
[QUOTE=Second-gear-of-mgear;30174294]Fucking traffic problems.[/QUOTE] It's still not as bad as some other city sims out there, just build loads of underground highways and bus routes. I really hope they release the metro DLC before they go bankrupt again.
