Kotaku: "Simcity DS had a lot of potential, it just messed up the execution. So it's back to the drawing board for the sequel, which instead of piling more features and micromanagement into the game - like its PC predecessors did - will be taking a cue from Civilization and feature vastly different time periods, from the middle ages to the industrial revolution and beyond. Including cavemen, should you be the type to hate on roads and agriculture. Further details are non-existent, so for now, be grateful for the above scans".

ign writes: Maxis Software's ultimate goal for the SimCity franchise has always been to make you think about game ideas in the real world. From dealing with natural disasters like earthquakes, to making sure city-funded services such as garbage and electricity are provided, the simulation should be fun and also develop your mind so you reflect on what you see going on around you every day. After more than a decade the studio that started it all is returning to the series, bringing back the beloved PC franchise with a new game simply titled SimCity. The ultimate goal is still the same, but new advances in tech and design, as well as living in a world with increased globalization, have reshaped the way Maxis approached its design.
Sweet! SimCity DS was a great game that I still play :) Glad it's getting another one out along with different time periods. Should be intresting.
