New SimCity requires internet connection to play

That's a silly reason not to buy. If you're computer is already online, who cares?

I'll probably still buy it. I know I've had zero issues with Civ5 that has the same type of rule. I just think too many people cry about too many things.

This anti-piracy solution is far better than a rootkit. Granted, I think the key code was just fine and more than enough to limit piracy to only the worst offenders.

so you never game on a laptop when you dont have internet? i cant count the hours ive burned in civ/simcity/C&C off line ... single player off line is a must... multiplayer is a nice option and great for showing off, but single player is needed,

 

EA i know you wont, but set it up like minecraft ... id still pay up to 60usd for it if you did, and i hate you. man managing my own sim city server would be pimp, and till have a single player offline mode woooo
