I'm in for a Europe west 2 region. I already have one, so let me know if you want an invite. My origin name is KUDrew.

It didn't find you when I tried to add you.

Add me "KUDrew."

I just started a new region on Europe West 4.

I doubt the servers will be up for two weeks anyway.

Amazon Stops Selling SimCity

Quote:

In what must be a big blow for EA and Maxis, Amazon has stopped selling download copies of the just released SimCity. The game has at time of writing received 833 reviews on Amazon, and has an average rating of just one star. That’s because 740 of those are one star reviews. Only 20 people gave it 5 stars. There’s few better ways to gauge how a game has been received, and this is pretty damning as to how EA has handled the launch.

A note has been posted by Amazon underneath the “Currently unavailable” message. It states that many customers are having connection issues and they have no idea when it will be fixed. As we reported earlier, EA is bringing new servers online over the next 2 days to try and solve the problem, and Maxis is fixing bugs as quickly as they can, but server architecture issues are hampering them.

It's basically the same thing. Fun, though.

Tropico 4 is the exact same game as 3.

I came home tonight and first thing I did was open Origin

I found SimCity, and started clicking around. I noticed the british/french/german whatever packs., and then it hit me. SimCity is going to be just like The Sims, where its constant tiny content packs for a bunch of money, and they try to nickel and dime you into having 3 or 400 bucks invested in the game.

Then I closed Origin.
