    Don't.

    It was full of bugs, a very bad game, with server problems, when it was released.
    Services management and citizens' daily life management are badly done by the game, depending on your location you simply can't success in connecting yourself to EA's servers, it's quite impossible to create "rich districts" and "poor districts", etc...

    There is a big controversy around this game because it was more a scam than a fully-fledged game. EA Games pushed Maxis beyond their capacities and rushed the release.

    Furthermore, and that's a real problem: you can't play offline without cracking the game. You need a hundred per cent working connection, so forget playing in the train or when you have a problem with your box! You need to be always connected to EA's servers, same servers you have difficulty connecting yourself to!

    I don't know if they resolved most of it since last week, but I cannot approve of such choice in marketing and development. It's not customer friendly, it's paranoid and it's sick.

    This sick puppy names his ship crew 'WizardOne, WizardTwo' and then goes out of his way to murder them.

    He's a truly dark individual.

    If he's only gotten four of them killed playing FTL, he can't be that bad.

    Only the weapons officer gets the name Wizard, and one of them actually killed the flagship.

    The game likes killing Wizards with fire. Station fires.

    Been dipping in and out of Warframe for a while, not too impressed with the new level up scheme but I'm giving them plenty of rope.

    Also just finished replaying the Dead Space series and I have to say that I feel the 2nd game to be the highpoint of the series overall, the third had some nice bits and I did like the thing with the Markers but overall the 2nd game just felt more complete and coherent, anyoone else feel the same?

    Got someone to borrow me Assassin's Creed III... for 3 weeks. Halt everything, time for an AC marathon.

    ... After my first hour long session to get into the game... I have one thought only. Benjamin Franklin, you mad bastard.

    Played it once or twice. But my computer isn't very good for games. And the community wasn't very welcoming towards me.

    I like Annie.

    She burns things. >:D

    On a side note, Dead Space is a dick. And loves shoving shit up your ass almost as much as I love putting the Seeker rifle down their throats.
