Sim City.

[Requiem762]

So sim city is getting officially supported offline mode.

Discuss.

It's still a waste of far too much money. First, $50 is a ridiculous price, even though it's less expensive than most modern console games. Second, it's impossible to get started in the game unless you're extremely lucky with the way you build. Third, it's made out to be way better than it is.

Offline mode is good, but why wasn't it done sooner anyway?

Because EA, DRM and lies.

At the launch it was IMPOSSIBLE! Never going to happen. The servers took too much of the load for people with normal computers to be able to play it. Now we soon have it, and I doubt FPS is impacted. Horrible attempt at DRM.

You have to wonder how you would pirate the game without a connection in the first place.

Also fixed the missing comma.

[Monkeh]

Should not have a comma before an 'and', remove it immediately or the comma police, FBI and CIA will get ya!

[aeTIos]

At least this'll make it easier to pirate

People did it anyway with ease, and discussing piracy is against forum rules

RUN AWAY RUN FAR AWAY.. and get SimCity4 instead. A far superior game. Im still waiting for SimCity 5.

[lajoswinkler]

It's ridiculously expensive, and it's unbelieveable people are actually still on something from 2004. It's been a decade. What are they doing?

I like the game, but I'd never pay that much money for it.

[crazyewok]

Sim city 4 is the ultimate build. Best mods and its region system allow you to build entire worlds.

Actually, that's incorrect. The "and" is not a substitute for the comma; it only denotes that the succeeding item is the last item on a list.

Oh god, let's not start a grammatical war on a Simcity thread, please?

[Spartwo]

Water is the gamebreaker.It's essentially a countdown till all the people die due to lack of oxygen,yes you can send from other cities but they will too run out it ruins the game more than anything else.

I wish SC4 would run on my computer... it hates Win7 for some reason. I still have SC3K though, which is pretty much tied with SC4 for my favorite game in the series... it also has ~jazz~

I already got it about a month after release while it was on sale for something like $25. It's pretty fun, got 100 hours in it, but it's mostly because I challenged myself to build all the great works, which I did.

I had it too on this Win7.

It constantly crashed, but thanks to INTERNET I found a fix, it was something about SC4 hating multi-cores, so I just ran it single-core. Something like that.
