Isn't that the one that they turned into an always online Free-To-Play system? Yeah, I think I'll pass.

A Free PC Download From Origin for SimCity Launch Customers

Aaaaand that's why I don't want to become a PR staff for a company like EA. Getting crap thrown at her because of EA's draconic policies is basically a part of her job description nowadays. What a sad and tragic fate. At least back when Spore came out (and flopped) she didn't get as much backlash as this.

Music to my ears... Serves you right, Evil Arts!

Ask and you shall receive... And yes, it definitely warrants the extended meter. It's that bad.

Boy, have EA gotten themselves in quite a pinch. That's what you get for having such an ass-backwards business model.

Destructoid gives Sim City 4/10 rating, warns of future server problems
Moriadne commented on AndisArt's article in News
This image seems oh so appropriate right now... -
Internal Maxis memo outlines SimCity stabilization efforts

He's probably a cross between Emperor Palpatine and Mr. Krabs. -
Gamespot rates SimCity 5/10: "...equal parts joy and misery."

What, exactly, has more launch problems? All I'm seeing is a blank space. :/ Also... -
EA Korea Facebook Controversy and Why South Korean Gamers are Pissed at SimCity
Moriadne commented on Hellken's article in News
What a bunch of racists. With the way things are unraveling, it seems to me that the true entertainment that can be derived from this game is that of watching it crash and burn and the naive and gullible people's reactions to it. I give it a 10/10. -
EA disables 'non-critical' SimCity gameplay features to address server issues
Moriadne commented on Dirktator's article in News
Unfortunately, I highly doubt it'll ever rise back after this. With EA's meddling, things can only sink lower into the cesspool. Our only hope for the franchises that EA ruined is in the modding communities, case in point Boomtown. Sim City is dead. -
I had a bad feeling this would happen. Well, it was expected but I never imagined it would happen on this scale. Dear EA, I am not trying to be rude here (and I really hate to make things worse) but the sad truth is this: Hey Hellken, I think your meter's broken. Shouldn't that dial be on the infrared by now?

SimCity city sizes will “eventually” expand, says Maxis
Moriadne commented on Hellken's article in News
A better solution would be to support Boomtown. -
Not dirt road, per se, but one of my mates back in college lived in a highrise condo whose only access was a simple two-lane paved road. Skyscrapers can, in fact, grow in ridiculously small roads, if the demand is high enough. That's what happens in Manila, and other bustling yet old cities which have ancient road and zoning plans.

(Update 3) Train Train Take Me Away

Why is there... a tree... in the middle of the baseball field? -
Thus, the fun to be had in a single SimTown is depleted.

Gamespot Interview (VIDEO): SimCity: Reinventing the City of Your Imagination
Moriadne commented on Hellken's article in News
Indeed. And you know what? This thing would've actually received minimal flak if it was content to be that way, or at least name it SimTown instead of riding on the name of an established franchise. -
Sorry to break ti to you, but 'making a quick buck' is EA's middle name.

Was there ever any doubt?

I have a new corollary for the old "People die when they are killed" meme... "Games die when they are pestered by EA."

Exactly. Man, this is so depressing.

If there ever will be a subsequent iteration, that is.

Depending on how they go with it, there might not be much of an endgame, if any, to speak of. I think what screwed them over is their emphasis on the Glass Box engine. It seems it was a little too early for them to introduce if you can't make a realistically sized city, let alone a district, with it using current computer power.
