G4TV was aanwezig op de GDC 2012 en heeft over SimCity een nieuw artikel geschreven. Er worden wat details verteld over de GlassBox Engine in het spel, en wat dat nu precies inhoudt.
Thankfully, the elegance and conciseness of the Glassbox engine itself, and the fundamental building blocks that drive it, made the presentation of the simulation elements, and even the code behind it, actually quite entertaining and educational. Better still, it made me genuinely excited about SimCity, a franchise that has held little appeal for me since I first played the original way back when.
