The early review on Cities XL is in and let me tell you that it's a pretty bad one. The game is good they said but not great like simcity in terms of making money and having transportation you can make money but the review saids its very hard. The one positive note is that the poor performance that was i the demo has been fixed before they released the full version. But the downside of this review is that unlike simcity with placing residential, commercial, and industrial zones you have to pretty much figure out all this on your If you want to make money in the game. The other bad spot is the online feature and that is mostly because If your working on a map and servers go down your gonna lose all the hard work that you put into the map. I truly believe that this game is nothing but a huge failure by them. They should have made this game more like simcity not like a mmo or online type of game. Final thought: Go back and make another citylife game and recall CitiesXL and burn it.

This comes as no suprise....once they decided to switch from being a city builder to being an MMO game, they pretty much had indicated that as developers, they'd given up.

Too damn bad....
