Super PolyPixel - SimCity is the only game that I have ever pre-ordered. It’s a game that I have personally been excited for since it’s announcement last March. Easily on my top 5 most anticipated games of 2013, I don’t think that I’m alone in saying that this may be the biggest video game let-down in the history of the industry.
The promise of SimCity is unbounded given the legacy of the series as well as the excellent pedigree of its developer, Maxis. I’m a huge fan of The Sims franchise as well as the more recent Spore. Taking what they’ve learned from these games and putting them on top of a brand new SimCity sounds like a great idea. There is, however, one fatal flaw. In order to play SimCity, you are required to always be connected to the internet.
Some games force online-only measures onto people. It sucks! Especially when some titles, like these seven, 100% didn't need it.
i meant what to gain from this knowledge, this list, whats the point of it why make it why should i know these games, sure yeah i do recall some games needing me to be online even to play single player but, why should i know this "seven times" thing
You are either sort of young or very old and have memory issues.
Besides the internet can go down for various reasons.
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.
Dead Space was the worst ruining... micro transactions in a full price game, with co op that was mandatory to get all the story and access to certain areas. Sure Rock Band was oversaturated, and Burnout was basically killed off even though it sold a ton on PS3 back in the day.
I really liked Burnout and Need for speed and thought no one will able to destroy this game.....I was WRONG!
