You can plop individual Sims into your city - The Sims 1 released in 2000 - and then track their lives as they commute from your polluted suburbs to their awful job, then move out of town or die.
It has a day/night cycle, so you can see your skyscrapers twinkling in the dark. It lets you build enormous cities, and then trade resources with the neighbouring city you built previously. It has 3D terrain and crisp, clear sprite-art buildings, which are one of the reasons it still looks great today. SimCity 4 did nothing to change this formula but continued its logical progression. Then, when you've constructed a sprawling metropolis and have grown weary, you trigger some natural (or unnatural) disasters and start over. As the mayor of a fledgling town, you zone commercial, residential and industrial districts, place down amenities and services to satisfy residents, and attempt to balance the budget as your town begins to take on a life of its own.

Its huge cities would chug on even decent PCs, for one, and its traffic simulation seemed outright broken. When it was released on January 14th 2003, SimCity 4 had its problems.
