CivCity exited me. EDIT:
CivCity: Rome, an innovative city builder inspired by the world of Sid Meier's Civilization, and created by a collaboration between Firefly Studios and Firaxis Games, invites players to shift focus from building a multi-city empire and zoom-in on the great cities of the Roman Empire, culminating in Rome itself!
Look inside the buildings - For the first time in a city builder you can look inside the Villas, the forums, and even the Roman baths! Discover, in much greater detail, how Romans went about their daily lives.
Civilize your city - More than 70 technologies can be developed over time to give your city a strategic advantage. Use the rich research tree to improve many aspects of your city and its relation to the wider empire.
Follow the life of a Roman family - Do they thrive and prosper from humble hut to noble palace as they move through the generations… or not? Well, that's your call!
Ease of play - Driven purely by building placement and strong visual feedback, the game lets you create your own living community simply by choosing and placing the wide variety of buildings.
Real Romans - An intriguing array of characters will interact with you and bring high drama to your city with their emotions, state of health, and candid feelings about the city. There will even be famous Romans in the city who will comment on and present new challenges for you. (from official site (http://www.2kgames.com/civcityrome/))

Do you work for 2k games? no? Firefly studios? Firaxis?

Because that resembles a sales-job!

And don't worry, because I'm definitly getting it!
 
I knew I would buy Caesar IV when it is released, for old times' sake if nothing else, but while waiting I decided to treat myself to one other Rome city builder. At first I couldn't decide between Glory of the Roman Empire or Civ City Rome. I was attracted by the graphics of 'Glory' at first, then changed my my mind and decided that Civ Rome looks better and will probably be more immersive. I'm disappointed, though, that there isn't more info available for the game. Amazon are giving 1st July as the release date, but the official website currently only shows a few screenshots; there is no info re sys requirements, no forum, nothing at all. Caesar IV, on the other hand, has months to go before release but its website is already up and running. I'm just curious why Civ Rome, which I hope will be a huge success, has had so little publicity. No one really seems interested, which I find a bit odd, as I'm really looking forward to this game, and I thought more people would want to talk about it.
