still the same problem. I dont understand how logically they can release a game that can not be played. Why not wait another week to fix this stupid bug and release the game on march 12. Is it like school where they have a rubric for how they can pass the game?? 70% is passing so once they complete 70 percent they feel like its done. 

The entire reason games cost $60 to begin with is because of game pirates, so if DRM protects them from pirating then why have the price of games not dropped? EA is the beginning of the end for giant game publishers. I dont play simcity to play online. Thats why they made HALO.
