I'm really debating on buying it, but I don't like the fact that apparently you can't play if you don't have internet.

That's not the point. What if something happens to my internet? I should be able to play the game regardless because I don't plan on playing the game with friends (because they don't play games that aren't facebook things -_-) or strangers. The game looks fun and I'm tempted, but I don't want to spend $60 on it and then real life screws over my internet or something. We were actually talking about this today during dailies lol.

if anyone follows Chris Kluwe on twitter (@ChrisWarcraft) ~ he went on a rant the other day about Sim City 5,

about the 'always online' feature that incredibly sucks if you want to simply play and there servers are full or that they are down (which they were).

Two links:

Sorry I just hate the always on thing for Single Player games with a passion. If they close the servers in a year, no one will be able to play ever again

glad to hear, hopefully EA learned a few lessons about the launch. Did you end up getting a free game or discount or something?
