Even the 5 star reviews are sarcastic trolling Laughing

I honestly find Amazon to be a terrible place to judge video game reviews. People on that site seem to be upset at the world, but I have no issues when it comes said customers reviewing other items.

I use metacritic if I want to check reviews for a video game I am interested in buying.

P.S. While I have no issue with facepalming EA, maybe we should think to facepalm the customers who continue to buy their products...

Mind pointing out where I deny being a customer? Not to mention that I enjoy Fifa, so I have no issue dropping my $65.01 a year on it.

This review is from: SimCity - Limited Edition (DVD-ROM)
I was looking for something new for my computer, when I stumbled upon this game on Amazon and decided, what the heck, lets give it a shot!

I have to say it far exceeds my expectations.

Thankfully, the game never actually loads. I was looking for a program where I could zone out, and stare at my computer screen in a meditative state for hours on end with no interuptions.

There's no actual gameplay, sound effects, or graphics to distract you from your meditation.

You may be forced to run the same "Tutorial" over and over again, but don't worry about that minor problem, because as soon as you exit the tutorial you'll be returned to a program that blissfully crashes or just, never logs onto any server succesfully, once again giving you peace and quiet.

Incredible job EA, will there be a sequel?

rofl

Amazon actually removed the DD version from their store already because of bad reviews.

I like the game, but man the server BS is annoying as hell. It's getting slightly better but the first couple days were terrible, and most of the time you still end up in a 19min queue just for the chance to connect to the server.

Anyways, my co workers have been trying to get me to buy SimCity for the past 2 weeks and I have been very coy about it. Turns out I was right to be. Not really my style of game anyway, but I would've given it a go if not for this outage that's going on. Think I'll wait until they hash this out and kick out a DLC or 2.

Oh jesus, how is one supposed to keep track of all these things?

I remember the simple days of brb and lol, what happened to those days? 56k dial up that did not allow you to use AOL when you were grounded and so many other delights.

P.S. Pagers, oh how I miss thee.

P.S. P.S I remember when SimCity was the big thing in elementary school.

I get it! During a windy day on the beach, a chicken decided to start strafe-walking after studying a crab, God didn't intend for chicken to strafe-walk like crabs, so he/she/it transformed the chicken back into an egg, the egg had already caught speed from the chicken's strafe-walk, it kept rolling sideways like a boulder rolling down a hillside, god shouted "enough of this non-sense", and turned the egg into Paris Hilton, anorectic Paris Hilton got blown sideways by a gust of wind created by the egg's rapid rotation, she was doing cartwheels, God turned her back into an egg again.. "If only I could simulate these creatures and scenarios, somehow", God said.

And that's how your comment is related to the topic of this thread.

Just thinking outside the box :coffee:

QFT is one of the oldest internet speaks

The modern trend is

This.

But QFT is used pretty much all the time everywhere. This forum in general is pretty out of touch with the rest of the internet anyways.

Also using ^ to agree with a post, not just it meaning I'm replying to this post. Though that's mostly in Instant Messaging sort of chats.
