Broken rip-off! It pretends to simulate and does a decent job with the illusion... until you take a closer look.

Apart from the obvious server issues Sim City is also a simulation fail. Path-finding doesn't work; sims will use congested roads when neighboring roads are completely clear. Sims will also try to travel to the same place until that is filled up, at which point they will choose another place. It would seem everyone in this "simulation" could live work and shop in the same three buildings given the choice. Not that they actually need to work or shop. They are perfectly happy being unemployed an hungry. "Where do they get the money to live in such luxurious skyscrapers if they don't work(?)" or "where do the shops get goods from(?)", you might ask. The magic Maxis feary is probably the answer.

EA brings out yet another broken product in the hopes that people will buy DLC and expansion packs to fix it. Great business idea, but I personally have had enough. This latest disappointment from EA will be my last.
