Silence! You won't have my soul just yet. *shakes fist*
Gonna take at least a few more years of hyperbolic marketing and time-honered franchises being turned into generic FPS games...

Bioware's new hit Dragon Age of Duty isn't going to be enough for you Arc? lol.
Also a Maxis without Will Wright, I don't have much confidence in that. Add in EA and it just spells disaster. I swear the executives at EA are just like, "That sounds like a great idea for a game, get a team on get something rolling and on the shelves by next spring. Now for the important part.. lets plan the DLC." |

I must assume that EA will delete the title off the wishlist of many people by infesting it with Origin or some crap like that.
But Sim City in general - oh my, where has all the time gone? Is it really over 20 years? I was so addicted to the first, and two later versions as well. I still run a CD occassionally, with the soundtrack of the latest two incarnations. Some tunes were extremely charming.

The control logic for traffic and passenger transportation is an issue to be looked out for, thing slike what routes people, take, and where they chnage from bus to subway - or not, and why.
In the past, these were anything but near to "optimal".

Hmm....it seems to be on the right track...it *is* EA though. My optimism remains cautiously guarded.

Mine is direct-er. That's part of the reason I hadn't seen it.

You know what I would like to see? A Simcity game that started in the 50's or 70's and let you play until the 2020's or the like. A bit like Tropico, but in SimCity. I've always been fascinated with simulations that take you threw time(RailTycoon etc.).
It would be nice to start a city in typical 50's design, and watch as the buildings,cars, and utilities get updated as you progress.

We Take A First Look At: SimCity
SimCity To Be Crippled By Always-On: Let***8217;s Change This Wonder what the second implies; simply launching it through Origin like it goes with Steam, or actually requiring an active connection. If it's the second, I ain't touching it. I've been through that with Ubi, with SH5 and SC: Conviction. Usually it wasn't my connection that kept me from launching the game, but their services being down. I'm not paying them only to be locked out because of their screw-ups, or the misguided actions of internet "vigilantes". If I pay them for a sevice, I expect a service, not an inconvenience.
