Inside Mac Games has posted a review of Aspyr's SimCity 4, the latest addition to the SimCity franchise. Here's a clip from the review:

The concept is so simple it’s brilliant: build and manage a city from the ground up. The bulk of this civic work will be done in Mayor Mode, but there is also a God Mode and a My Sim mode at your disposal. God Mode allows you to shape the land in your city’s area however you see fit, and My Sim mode allows you to import your Sims from your The Sims game (or a selection of provided Sims if you have none) for a street level look at life in the city. The interface, taking its cues from The Sims, now puts most features in a fold-out lower-left corner control panel and other tools along the left-hand side of the screen. A new and welcome addition to SimCity game play is that of regions which are divided into many plots of land for potential city locations, enabling the players to establish different types of communities on one region map to strike deals and share resources.
