A few days ago Gamestop reached out to the media and announced that after spending much time with Microsoft, they can confirm that their next console will be a hot device, and that the world will stand up and take notice when it`s announced. Just one month earlier Gamestop were pissed off because the blocking used games and DRM rumours. This doesn`t make any sense?

Its a bad idea. Who will buy this crap if this happens?

EA game. Cloud saving, always online DRM and bad servers confirmed? :P

Same stuff, better graphics. Could not care less about the scriptet single player in games like these. Bring back bots instead of wasting time creating a single player campaign part. 

Even if the game is good, im not buying anything with the word EA in it.

Didn't someone hack the game to be played offline and to remove the city limit size?ssvegeta555

From a consumers point of view, EA screwed up with their always online DRM system. 

But from a publishers point of view, did they succeed? Only a couple of weeks after the game was released we were able to read that the game sold over one million copies. EA also said that the server issues were caused by more people playing the game than they were expecting. 

Now, weeks after the release, I still don`t see any offline cracks, mods or pirate version up on any page. 

This sounds like sucsess to me. Not that EA ever cared about making consumers happy anyway.
