Sim City - A Smattering of Impressions

^ and I still choose not to - at the moment.

No constant connection, bigger cities and bugs fixed would be the requirements for me to buy

Fair points all.

Looks like the price is falling at Amazon [$39.99] as well:

Resist!  Resist I say...at least until it goes down to $9.99 or less.  :P

Oh crap, at least I had the trip to the store to slow me down in buying, but if now the same price for download....look out.

For what it is worth the amazon version is standard edition while target version is the limited edition.

In what special way does the Target version limit you, compared to the Amazon one?

[Bison]

The limited edition gives you british and french building styles and some other goodies.

Doesn't limit you, it is the limited edition...believe extra content...so the better deal.

I think it is the same as the LE version minus the Hero's and Villains DLC...which is most likely not worth $20...

The limited edition gives you the british and french building in addition to the hero/villians stuff that comes with standard.

But if target has the limited version for the same price of $39, then worth it:)

It's the beauty of capitalism.  You can buy a product or not.

I'll sit on the fence for a bit longer.

Right.  I got the deluxe one but I was thinking it was the limited edition.  So many names for a game and it's DLC.

If I buy now, it will be for the potential, plus my impulse nature:). Not really concerned about the issues since I think they will be addressed, just don't know if I would like this type of game or not.
