    Of course EA says it's impossible, because they don't want to do it.

    Honestly, I like the idea of being able to develop an area with multiple friends, that's interesting, but I still want to be able to create my own city independently.

    Also, the idea of mayoring (is that the word?) multiple cities by oneself would be interesting too.

    Just like Driver SF, the crack just removed all server communication. Pretty sure it could be done with Sim City in combination with the debug menu that was found.

    I mean to crack a game that want to be cracked. All groups want to be the first in crack the most requested scene release of all times.

    I dont know about Hawk 2 but maybe no one was really interested. Ubisoft protection for such an average game?.

    "Sim city is a facebook game, sold for 60 euros"

    Read this in a magazine haha

    This game is shit for dumbass people. How did they manage to take one of the best videogame franchise ever, one of the most profound games and create such a lame game ?
    Not to mention all the bugs...

    I hate you EA.

    Good review. I seemed to get from it you don't have to bother with hooking up sewerage/electric systems anymore? Game is stupidly dumbed down.

    I'm honestly not understanding why you'd bother with this game. It's smaller than Sim City 4 and not half as good.

    I'll just wait for SimCity to become a good game again.

    Anyone who is still purchasing EA games should fully expect this kind of shit. I haven't touched an EA title in a lot of years. Why on earth any self-respecting gamer would anymore escapes me.

    I've been playing 4 instead and like it, though I'll admit I wish I had some of the features of the new one, like being able to add onto existing buildings (adding wings/departments) and stuff like that instead of having to replace stuff. I think it might be a little easier and therefore more enjoyable to manage: 4 is great and all but I feel like I'm juggling too much to begin with.
