Overall, SimCity 4 is a very good game.  The graphics are stunning, but sometimes a little too much for an average computer.  God Mode is very entertaining (you'll have a great time sculpting terrains, but Mayor Mode really is the fun part, though it hasn't changed much since SimCity 3000.  The new visual effects are amazing to watch, but some of the music was, well, different.  If you have the Sims, you'll definitely enjoy moving them into a new city!  All things considered, SimCity 4 is well worth the $50 price!
