Well, too bad if you bought SimCity digital edition through EA’s Origin because you can’t. Why not you may ask. It’s against the terms of service that you agreed to when you created your account.
Some games force online-only measures onto people. It sucks! Especially when some titles, like these seven, 100% didn't need it.
The following is an excerpt from Chapter 5 of The Secret History of Mac Gaming, “Simulated.”
EA has something of a reputation when it comes to awkwardly handling much-loved franchises. Here are 7 that Screen Critics feel they ruined.
Need for Speed as well. Here's to hope that the new one will be a return to form for the franchise.
No refunds for Simcity? Yeah, I beg to differ about that.
So sad that a game has to get all this publicity over something like this, sadly this game probably wouldn't of got all this press if it wasn't for all this negativity. Maybe they're doing it on purpose lol.
Ha!! Thank you for a good laugh today. The headline on this piece is awesome!
from now on for both steam and origin and uplay ...
if and when the time comes to buy another game from any of them
i will create new accounts for most games.... that way if i need a refund i can just charge back... ... let them ban the account and not care
