SimCity buy or no buy?

[BUZZIN_NICE]

cant bring myself to play this again... seemed just like an endless pot of demolishing buildings and adjusting roads etc for changing trends and then to get a stupid monster of godzilla keeping coming on and ufo's that would trash stuff, and you cant turn these off as far as i know

you play in sandbox to get rid of monsters etc but then lose achievements. The game needs a serious patch to a pure sim otherwise its a harder version of the Sims. This could go the way of BF series, being dumbed down to suit idiots. I do admit that SC4 was extremely tough but once you got a city going it was magic.

yea disasters are stupid...

just came back to find half my city was a pile of rubble from some disaster great...

I don't mind the real disasters but things like aliens , zombies and the lizard are stupid

^ When ever i played it when i was a lot younger. i just couldnt put up with it. couldnt get my head round it i loved the old ones. you could get an immense city. just couldnt manage it in 4. but i was young and stupid :/ but it was definitely hard

This!

The worst thing is that if you buy the dlc then you know in 6-12months it'll be giveaway prices on origin sales etc. This whole idea drives me mad.

What's really maddening is that with most dlc you know they could easily have included it originally but left it out just to sell to you later.

Anything published by EA is broken and not worth spending money on, i thought everyone knew this?

But then again people still believe commercial gaming review websites as a good indication of a game.
