[edit] External Links
There are a lot of external links appearing in this article which is good but to help wikipedia please make sure before adding any more they are relevant and useful to the article and are not just site promotion. This is to avoid what happened a while ago with the SimCity 4 article in which there had to be a major clear up of external links due to a spam fest. Compromise 22:04, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
I just added some stuff about the classes. I'm a little vague on how to attract higher classes, because I don't remember the exact game mechanics. I probably provided too much detail about how to play the game anyway. The point I basically wanted to get across was "There are many classes, each class likes a few others but hates most of them, and most of the game is about preventing class warfare in your city while still keeping everyone close enough together to let your city function as a whole."
[edit] Ambiguous reference to SimCity
At the end of the The Classes section, there was a paragraph which looked as if it was comparing City Life to the game SimCity. However, this was not stated, and was, in any case, probably slightly biased. I have altered the paragraph concerned so as to correct this situation. However, it seems out of place. Perhaps someone else might be able to improve on it.--88.105.149.14 19:50, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Starforce Copy Protection
Perhaps it should be mentioned that the game lost out on some potential players due to Starforce malware being utilized for this title. Appanently the game also does not work on computers with "integrated" graphics cards, which rules out most over-the-counter home PCs, although I am not sure if it does not work because of Starforce or some other deficiency.
- Unless you can source that opinion from a reliable source, no it shouldn't.--Crossmr 01:15, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
- Is this site reliable for use with the article? 69.182.86.27 15:28, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
In my view it's important that all PC game articles indicate which copy protection (if any) is in use. This though is a view of a consumer - the developers/publishers seem to want to keep this sort of thing hidden and pretend to the customers that copy-protection is completely benign and doesn't need mentioning.Djp (talk) 07:06, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Trivia Sect?
It should be mentioned that the Empire State Building can be seen in the City Life logo ev en though the game does not have it. 71.249.46.193 22:47, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

- Yes it comes with the expansion pack. OR the Deluxe Edition. --Arad 15:20, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Future edition
Should the "future game" tag be removed, since the game is available for download now? I feel it should be, since you could consider it a "release". JuWiki 01:00, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Startup Problems
Last I checked there was not a version of Windows Media Center entitled "Windows Media Center XP." I would have to say your information obviously did not come from a formal source. 68.115.34.227 21:17, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
- There is a Windows XP Media Center. I was using it two weeks ago before upgrading to Vista. --Arad 15:12, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
Running Vista and City Life 2008. Have yet to encounter a problem. Changing the article accordingly. 66.214.244.188 (talk) 05:20, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Price
I bought this the other day for £1.98 (UK). That's a hell of a price drop considering it only came out last year. And it was in a proper shop, not a black market copy or anything. Michaelritchie200 13:39, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Cycle error
"It also features different time of the day: day, dawn, dusk and night but they should be selected by the player and do not have a cycle like SimCity 4." this is untrue since i have the game. The game does cycle trough the day without haveing the user to switch it. You can do this by clicking on the current cycle on the panel. The highlighted cycle will return to dull and the game will go through the cycle according to the time. 71.247.128.235 00:57, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Re-direct from Cities Unlimited
I have altered the re-direct from the above location so it points straight to the correct section of this article - note that if you change the title of the section "Cities Unlimited" the re-direct will also need to be changed. Cities Unlimited will potentially need its own article but not yet, given how little is known about this new game, even the title is not confirmed. Camaron1 | Chris 16:27, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Hardware problems
When the game loads and crashes before reaching 100%, that is a hardware problem caused by a non-compatible video card, I know so because I just got a new video card that rectified that problem. Also, Monte Cristo released a patch for compatibility with Vista on their website.-Uagehry456talk 07:50, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] 2008 Section
It would appear that the info about the 2008 release is incorrect, the release is not an expansion pack, it is a stand alone game --86.136.145.63 (talk) 19:38, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
