I think "The Streets of SimCity" was supposed to be a CW-like game, but the frame rates are so bad, even on modern computers (which means it's a coding issue) that the thing is just atrocious.

Like I said on the other thread, Rockstar's GTA and GTA2 are extremely CW-"ish" with a wink and a nod. There's even a tank you can get in GTA2.

No, I never played any of the other games in the series after 2. Those games smack of semi-realistic violence that churns my stomach. GTA2, on the other hand, is kind of comic-book like in line with a lot of warsims and scifi games that came out in the 80s and 90s.
