SimCity is coming to iPhone… any time soon!!! Kotaku.com’s Jim Reilly has this interesting article on SimCity’s launch by EA this december. This game is going to change the way iPhone OS is going to be used for gaming.
SimCity certainly bucks any mobile gaming trends with this offering. If you need your Will Wright fix on the go, this could feed your need. The older demo I played wasn’t completely finished, as there were still a few minor bugs and glitches, but I was promised these would be ironed out for the final release… Jim Reilly

All you SimCity addicts; get prepared for a blast in December. SimCity is coming to AppStore this December and will cost $9.99. MG Siegler of VentureBeat has just confirmed this news.
I should note that there were some loading time issues in the demo I tried. But EA’s reps assured me that these were being ironed out and that the game would run smoothly before it launches in the App Store at some point in December. The price point for the game is expected to be $9.99.
