SimCity 4 Q&A
8:42 AM | Galen Wiley | Comment on this story

Video gaming website GamersClick recently had the opportunity to sit down with Maxis producer Kevin Hogan and have a little chat regarding the much anticipated SimCity 4, the next installment in the popular series.

The exclusive Q&A covers many aspects, including the game's progress (and what it took to get there), some of features the game will include, and even the current minimum system requirements (subject to change, however, and for PCs only).

And now, a sneak peak of what's inside:

GC: Sim City 4 sees the implementation of 3 definite mods: God, Mayor, and Sim. Could you please tell us a bit more about these and how they will work?

KH: God mode allows you to make grand changes to the terrain of your city. In addition to that, if you are a vengeful god, you can destroy your city with the disaster tools that we provide. In mayor mode you grow your city, make decisions about where police stations, power plants, water pumps, etc go, and manage the budget. In My Sim mode you can import Sims from the Sims, move them into neighbourhoods, and get feedback from them about what they think of your city. As the lives of your citizens improve, the life of your Sim improves. Anything that can happen to your residents can happen to your Sim. So be careful where you place that tornado.

Be sure to check out the full interview for further details. The tentative PC requirements were a 600MHz processor with 128MB RAM and at least a 16MB video card. While no Mac version has been currently announced, be sure to check in often as we will keep you up to date with all the latest news regarding SimCity 4, and its possible Mac version.
