SimCity Burning: A Warning to Publishers on The Dangers of Always-Online DRM
If they had called this Sim City Online and marketed as not the next Sim City, but more of an MMO like Ever Quest, Guild Wars, and Star Wars Galaxies would be people be complaining as much if they knew they had to be online to play it.Sim City 4, 2000, and the original still run perfect and are extremely fun to play. Sim City 4 is on Steam even making it easy to get right now.  I'm tempted to pick that up since I have not played it. I loved the original and 2000 though.
