SimCity 2000 Network Edition

A network version of the game, SimCity 2000: Network Edition was released in 1996 for both Macintosh and Windows.

The network edition had the ability to share in-game resources and to compete or cooperate with other cities. If the user is on an appropriate network (TCP or IPX), then SimCity 2000 Network Edition works in a similar way to SimCity 4, giving the ability to cooperate with other cities (for example, by trading electricity for money, and vice-versa).

SimCity 2000 Network Edition featured slightly different gameplay in network mode, where mayors may start with more money, but must buy land before building upon it.

This version also features a revamped user interface. Instead of a static toolbar, items are accessed via cascading menus from the right of the screen, resulting in more screen real-estate for SimCity itself, without sacrificing functionality.

Not sure about the abandonware status because the basic version of the game is still sold.

It's really not the same game, it may look the same but the game play is different. HotU considers it abandoned.

SO sorry for not replying for so long.

its its apparently abandoned. classic gaming archive allowed it to be uploaded.

I sitll have the ISO ready for upload if this becomes accepted.

EDIT: If this does become okay to upload please note this does not run on anything above windows 95. It will just crash.

SC2000 MS-DOS Runs on my Win98 ¬_¬' So SC2000NE Should bloody run on my Win98, don't bring in the crap about it not working on a Win9x!!! These have more MS-DOS support than Win2000 and up!

Maxis didnt code it to work on anything newer than windows 9x it doesnt even have a dos edition. its pure windows. so it wont work on anything above 9x.

The game is a pain to get running and ultimately not worth it. The networking is archaic and prone to crashing. And the game itself isn't very fun since you're just sharing land with another player. It would've been a lot better if it divided the map between the two of you or better yet, stuck the other player on an entirely different map.

This is far from unusual. There's a whole bunch of Windows 9x games that just plain out refuse to work on any newer Windows version.

Dave: Where did you find it for sale?
