iPhone Application Watch: Long-awaited SimCity makes it to the iPhone

There are some pretty good games and applications for the iPhone, but there's something really special when an absolute classic comes to the handset.

So it is with SimCity from Electronic Arts. I've played it on several platforms and it really is, truly, a classic strategy/"god" game.

If you don't know what SimCity is, then you really haven't been playing attention to the games scene over the past couple of decades.

Initial reports suggest that the game is a little buggy and lags somewhat when loading cities, which is a little disappointing when it's a large software house that's released it. However, iPhone apps usually get freely updated over time, so hopefully these are just version 1.0 teething problems.

For some reason there are two versions, a US version and an international version. The UK version is £5.99 while the US version is $9.99. Not bad.
