I fucking love Sim City. I might take up gaming again to play it. Anyone else going to get it?

Beautiful. I'm so tempted... Spent a quite of lot of my university time ditching classes to play Sim City 1. ;)

Here's a better vid of in-game play for showing its' capabilities:

Got it last night, though the hubby put it on his laptop and left this AM for a boys ski trip. I will be checking it out as soon as he is back! <3 SimCity!
 
Question guys: is there a way to play online and collaborate with other live cities? Like exchanging tourists, natural resources and shit?
 
I was going to buy it but I think I'm skipping on principle. Fuck always online DRM for single player. That's bullshit. People who pre-ordered the game can't even log on to play it, or have to wait an hour in line to get on the servers.
 
Too bad Spore wasn't a success like the Sims. I got to tour the Maxis studios in san fran (as I ran a prominent spore fan site), will wright wasn't there though. :[
 
I was watching a video of someone playing it last night, love the fact you can do curved roads. Not sure what I think about the freeways being separate from your control. Also hearing you have to always be connected is kind of crappy, what if I want to play somewhere without an internet connection.

But I'm still buying it :-)

I believe you would be unable to, not 100% sure of this though. Even though you have to log in every time you play, I'm still getting the game since it is just plain awesome.

Do I hear WF region potentially?

Ditto. Fuck EA, Activision, and Bobby Kotick.
 
Almost impossible to connect to the servers, I wouldn't buy it for another week or so in hopes they fix the server availability issues.
