Video Games : City Life 2008 (PC DVD)
Rating: 
- Great City sim
This is a very good game its very fun to play if you are into city building and simulation like games. The visuals good as you can also zoom in and look at your metropolis in first person to take in all the details like people walking the streets having conversations or arguments, watch fire crews tackle burning buildings or just look at traffic being bumper to bumper in rush hour.
Its a great game but if you already have the previous version of City Life then it may not be worth getting as thats the real reason for some of the negative reviews it does not have much new content over the previous version you also likeone other reviewer has said going to need a fairly powerful viedo card i tried this game on an Nvidia 7300LE and it was very slow but once i got a 9600GT it ran perfectly smoothly so a decent video card may be needed

- Awful
Don't be fooled, this game needs a fancy Video Card.
I found this out after hours of it installing In the end I took it back.
So do check you have the RIGHT Video Card Before you by this game!
Rating: - Forget SimCity, this is the game you've been waiting for!
This is an amazing game. If you've played city builders since Sim City 1 and been disappointed by the later versions because they railroad you in terms of what's possible, poor graphics and dumb politics...prepare to be amazed by CL 2008.
This European take on the SC universe looks stunning and allows you, finally, to drive around your own city a la GTA San Andreas. People have little dramas going on and you can see roads, shops, schools, sunsets, nightscapes and parks all come to life in first person glory...or zoom out to see glistening mountains and rivers.
The city sounds are breathtakingly real and immersive.
The game is a bit buggy, but nowhere near as some reviews would have you believe (most poor reviews are for the 2005 version and this version has over 350 buildings and is much improved).
It's such fun the play for hours and hours you'll forgive the little rough edges. The social structure has a real European flavour (not the rapacious mercenary dog-eat-dog politics of the Sim City world) and driving round your own city is joyous.
Buy this game, you'll be delighted.
