Fun game, but significant limitations

The game is fun, but the map size is really small. If you are accustomed to earlier sim city games, be prepared for a map that is at most something like 10% of the area of a large sim city 4 map. That being said, the gameplay is much better than SC4, and this version comes with lots of expansions (primarily Cities of Tomorrow) that relaly make the game much more enjoyable. The port is not too well optimized. My computer isn’t a monster, but the game bogs down a bit when there is no reason for it. Graphics are pretty good, should be decent on any decent graphics card (my Radeon 4870 and 5870 both were fine). Loading cities actually takes a fair bit of time, shouldn’t be so slow considering that I’m loading off an SSD, but it’s not intolerable.
