3 weeks away from the most anticipated simcity game ever.

Quote :

"While previous mainstream SimCity titles can best be described as mayordom, or "God" simulators, SimCity Societies will be different, according to the preview at 1Up.com and statements from the developers.[8] Societies will be a 'social engineering simulator' rather than a city-building simulator. Public works will not play a part in the game. Transportation networks will be simplified to dirt roads, paved roads, subways and bus stops. The player will not be able to build zones, a key element in past SimCity games. They will, however, have the ability to directly place individual buildings, something not seen in previous editions. There will also be six "social energies" which will allow the player to learn about the characteristics of the citizens. These six 'energies' include productivity, prosperity, creativity, spirituality, authority, and knowledge.[9] The city will look, and act, according with the energies the player chooses. The player may choose to focus on satisfying any one or all of the energies. The reward system introduced in SimCity 3000 will be added and "improved".[10] The game will be "fully customizable" and allow the players to customize individual buildings, decorations, citizens and game rules. [11] When mentioning the depth to which the game will allow customization a Tilted Mill representative stated that those who were proficient in C# and XML will have easy access to every asset of the game and that basic tools would be provided for building editing"
