I came really close last weekend with the various deals for $40, but kept coming back to the smaller city size.
I'm so glad I resisted.
Hmmm, did he steal it from insidegamer.nl, or did they steal it from him.
Lovely review though.

Forgive me if this has already come up, I' haven't seen it yet, and I've been trying to keep up on the threads, but well... you know.
Anyway quick video of EA Maxis guy talking about servers a while back. Popped up on Reddit.

I highly doubt it. Give it a week and people calm down, a month and we'll all be pre-ordering the next butchered title.
Oh Jason Haber, you brilliant, handsome, lying devil you.
On the flipside, the guy has flashes of honesty,
Oh you can have it alright, but he never said you could actually play it!Jason Haber said:

I've changed it, but not to a horse cock. It's a dumb joke so I won't be too protective over it, but hotlinking is just shit. The server's melting enough as it is.
And I think it might be a user review anyway.
The impact of not being able to play a game paid for? Some people take off work for a highly anticipated game. Not saying simcity is one of those games but Diablo 3 probably was.
In case you people want to play SimCity 4 i prepared thread few weeks ago with some easy to install mods and fantastic map to play.
GAF Plays: SimCity 4 (with mods)

But that's not possible! Cause always online DRM! Simulation server side! Loud noises!
If you choose to "Roll Back," an EA representative dressed as the Horny Milkman™ comes over to f you up the a before you can get back up.
Lawl.
Wait is this real? What happens when you make either selection?

So they're playing it without the server? It just saves locally and everything? Is this a viable method for people who legally purchased it?
Yes and yes. It was the same guy who cracked diablo. No more details from me, but lol

I hear the hold time for Origin telephone support is literally 3400+ minutes
Correct.
No surprise there!
Isn't it fucking pathetic that we have to illegally download a game after buying it to play the damn thing?!

SimCity Is Online Only, But It Promises Not To Repeat Diablo IIIs Mistakes
"We've got experience from Spore and Darkspore," Katserelis said, citing other recent Maxis games. "EA is an on online company. We're definitely watching what's going on at Blizzard, and we're putting in backstops and checks to try to prevent those kind of things from happening."

After searching the usual suspects I can't confirm your statement - there is no crack out.
Word. Nothing on any irc channels or trackers.

Did a brief search and wow at the content being removed quickly. Too bad EA only has half as many programmers as they do lawyers.
I checked also and can't find a existing one either.

This sucks. Can't even load the game.
I don't even think Diablo 3 is cracked for offline. I just did a search and the only thing I can find is private servers and very little of them too.
Skidrow.

It kind of blows my mind to go to Amazon's sales charts and see Sim City sitting right at the top. I guess people just don't care, and that's exactly why companies like EA do the things they do. If people don't mind being abused, why not keep doing it?
He's not going to link a pirate site lol
I was so ready to buy this game. When I got home Tuesday. I went to launch origin and turns out it broke itself so I had to reinstall . Get to the page to buy Sim City and it fails to every add to my cart no matter what I do. I for **** and giggles try to buy the 80 dollar version of the game and sure enough I can add it to my cart. At this point I just gave up. I knew this server down would happen a lot also. I think I will hold off on this game now.

Just show a pic of someone actually playing the game.
Just looked again and yeah you're right....
The only thing even remotely related that came up is some shady website which just looks fake. I mean, the same website claims to have a Watch Dogs demo for download, lol. There's nothing on any major or minor day0 or similar xdcc.
Haha and people said the always online DRM would curb piracy. Didn't someone in this very thread suggest that in 20 years piracy wouldn't exist anymore because of this? Unfortunately (?) nothing stops piracy. They're quite resilient. I guess at least this means we'll still be able to play this game in 20 years.
Edit: Oh it might be fake? I see.
Oh right, I'm not familiar with the scene. If fake I apologise.

Can you imagine paying to see a movie and then the projector screws up and you can't watch the movie? Even if it took the theater 1 hour to fix the projector, I'd still be pissed. I don't know why some people are acting like this isn't a big deal.
What the hell? Someone cracked Diablo 3 so that you can play single player offline? Jesus. Maybe I can actually finish the campaign now.

If there is a crack I will be looking for it so I can finally play this fucking game.
