Now, for some more things to look forward to in this game.
Quote:
EA says that the development team consists of many veterans from SimCity 2000 and SimCity 4. It will also - wait for it - feature curved roads. Yes.
Another new feature for the game is the fact these cities are, for the first time (well, since some driving games we won't mention) in full 3D.
The new SimCity also has a feature called "Social Flow", which is the term for how your city will affect other people's cities. For example, resources are finite, and decisions you make - and technological advances other make - will impact the development of your own metropolis.

Europeans in particular should be pleased with the curved roads as their cities do not conform to the grid-lock style as American cities.

Maxis is actually making a proper SimCity here

If this game does go right back to its proper roots -- then it could potentially surpass all previous editions. I sure hope so.

And a trailer:
One thing I noticed: buildings in angled positions. City design will be ever more dynamic. :3
