These are the Free Games EA is Giving Out for SimCity Fiasco
EA's giving away one free game to SimCity purchasers.
After a week of accusations being thrown around that always-online wasn't actually necessary to keep SimCity running, and that it was tacked on merely as DRM, EA's finally trying to make amends by offering up a free game to SimCity buyers.
The eight games up for the offer are the following:
· Battlefield 3 (Standard Edition)
· Bejeweled 3
· Dead Space 3 (Standard Edition)
· Mass Effect 3 (Standard Edition)
· Medal of Honor: Warfighter (Standard Edition)
· Need For Speed Most Wanted (Standard Edition)
· Plants vs. Zombies
· SimCity 4 Deluxe Edition
To get the most bang for your buck, Dead Space 3 is probably your best bet, since it’s the most recent release and is still going at retail for $60. Alternatively, Battlefield 3 and Mass Effect 3 aren't bad choices either. Let's not talk even bring Plants vs. Zombies or Medal of Honor: Warfighter to the table.
The offer is even valid for new SimCity buyers until March 25th. However, the game must be redeemed by March 30th, or else the offer will no longer be available. Two games for the price of one? Sounds like a deal…

Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

EA, go away.
I am not going to buy a game that I may not be able to play a few years from now because the server is no longer online. I just do not understand why company's can't understand this. EA had to see the customer feed back when UBI Soft did the same thing and the later backed off some what made EA think that there customers would be OK with this?
Way to make up for it EA, offer games you know most people already have.
EA isn't so bad
Mass Effect 3 is a good game and the co-op multiplayer keeps me coming back to it as it is super fun and they have been really good about updating it with new classes, weapons, and enemies since release.
Being that I own it though the only real option for me is Dead Space 3. You really can't go wrong with ME3 though if you enjoy co-op multiplayer.
This sentence just blew my mind.
This so much. Soon there wont be "classic games" anymore. This constant on drm will make a purchase you made today obsolete a few years down the line when the servers have been shut down. Its sad that I can pick up a snes game or sega genesis game from the 90's and still play, but won't be able to play a game I bought this year in 3 years from now.
Am I the only one that has no idea what he just said?
The problem is that most people are blinded by their hate so much that they cannot see the truth. EA could disappear any time and I would not miss them for 2 secs but to do this is actually commendable and more than most publishers would offer so it deserves at least a bit of praise.
