Without doubt one of the greatest failures of a "launch" in many years. I have played EVERY sim city for the last 15 years or so. I knew that once EA games got their hands on it this would spell disaster, and it has! 4 days into release the game still is barely playable with server issues, constant connection required and no game saves! EA was forewarned about this on their forums a year ago, fans begged them to make it a Single Player game- but in typical EA style its $$$ over their customers. So i made a parody of their "debut" of Simcity by EA/MAXIS.
