I dont know. Never i guess.

SC2013 sold 1.1 million copies during launch week. thats a whole lot of sheep.

the biggest SC fan boards have become quite divided over the new game. basically fanboys and children defending the game vs everyone with a brain labeled as "haters". Of course those boards mods also have an agenda, they cant survive as a forum that does nothing but bash a game - and certainly cant get inside info and trips to the dev studio anymore.

ill never buy a game that requires a connection to Origin to play - ever.

yeah
more like a Saban vs Miles crew though. SC4 has a ridiculous cult following. Hell new material is being released daily on the STEX.
I just recently reinstalled the game and have been going through the somewhat daunting and tedious task of tracking down all the dependency files for the custom lots i have.

It's sad when you realize that if EA was a new indie-game company, and SimCity(2013) was released under another name, it would be considered "a reasonable successor to Sim City 4". Seriously, that's how bad EA fricked up the media-selling on this.

not to SC4 fans it wouldnt. the new game regresses too many features from SC4 to be considered a successor of any form.

its simtown in pretty 3D. oh with curved roads (which dont work)

awesomeness.

Oh and now it turns out if you purchased and complained to Amazon, EA is counting it as a chargeback and disabling your key to SC!
How is that not outright theft? Is there something in the EULA that forbids consumers from complaining about the game?
