I have Sim City 4 Deluxe and I won't recommend it since it is practically broke. The only thing going for it is graphics which is a bit old by now. City to City pathfinding is absolutely broke. You have to design your highways real well so that your citizens will use them ( the majority will still go to the roads ).

Plus there is a solid cap on wealth distributions in the city. Also, once you've built a commercial site, it would be extremely tough to expand to other peripheries. I'll post my city soon. The trash system is bad as well.

I'll post a screenie of my city in a bit.

edit: Here's my city of Yayfungus. ~:D



This is the main city. There's a lot more cities in the periphery. If you look, it's difficult to develop other parts of the city since there's little traffic. Why? Pathfinding within the city is broke itself. City to city transportation is even more broke.
You appear to have a Motorway. Do you happen to know how to build Cloverleaf junctions for the motorway? I don't have a clue. And pathfinding in the city doesn't appear to be broken. Works fine for me. And city-to-city transportation works fine, and is quite handy, as dumping my sims on a train to a nearby city takes alot of pressure off the city roads. I take it though that it's only broken in SC4 Deluxe, because i have the original, and it works fine. And the Graphics aren't that dated. Compared to even the best games out there, the graphics are amazing, and so is the attention to detail. It may be over a year old, but the graphics will satisfy most graphics whores.
