Retrieving an old Copy of SimCity4

[Dragonsong]

So, I purchased a physical copy of SimCity 4 ( I think it's just the vanilla ver.) about 2 years ago, but at this point I've completely lost the original CD or DVD. However, I still have the original CD key written down that came with it - do you think there might be a way for me to retrieve a copy of the game with this?

Thanks in advance for any replies.

I'm not exactly sure. The best would be to find it again, then just use the original CD and cleanly install the game with no fuss. However, another option might be to download the game illegally (although we at simcityforum do not support members downloading, of course) and to try to use the CD key. However, that could potentially prove itself to be a slight pain for some odd reason.

I think the easiest way of solving this is to just buy a new game. I doubt it costs a lot, considering it's quite a few years old now

Yeah, I ended up getting a download online...

CD key worked though lulz. (Apparently I had Simcity 4 Deluxe)

thanks for the advice =O

Alright thanks, I ended up downloading a copy... lulz

In any case my CD key worked, turns out I'd bought the Deluxe version of the game.

Thanks for the help =O
