Well, I had to post on the Sim City Launch Disaster. I couldn’t resist.
I mean seriously, this was stupid. The DRM concept is stupid. The software-as-a-service model has merit, but not like this. This just . . . happened.
Pretty much between this and the Deadspace Microtransactions I’ve lost about any interest in an EA game.
