The irony is that cool anti-piracy measures exist for no reason except as a special easter-egg that only the cracking team will see. How considerate of the devs.

Turns out their entire anti-piracy measure depends on one file and renaming it removes the entire thing. Where have we seen this before I wonder...

I can't blame them, I mean, no matter how good your anti-piracy is, it'll get cracked in hours. Make it simple instead of wasting time and money on it, because the only people who'll be effected by it are the people who are too dumb follow the simple instructions given with their pirated copy.

Ea said there will be no sims 5 if sims 4 does not sell well enough. The sims franchise is on the line here.

Instead of making a bullshit ultimatum like this, why not be a good loving developer and say "if Sims 4 doesn't sell well enough, we'll roll development back into making Sims 3 a better experience including some free DLC add-ons and lots of bugfixes."

What a wonderful world that would be

If the sims 5 doesn't get made it your guys' fault for not buying multiple copies of sims 4.

*Please note that in the sims 5 we plan to remove all sims. But this will allows us to provide a richer, furniture placing in an empty house, experience to the player.

The automated filtering used for Gallery uploads was unintentionally blocking the words “gay”, “homosexual”, or “homosapien”. It has now been fixed and these terms will not be blocked or prevented.

A good and handsome man posted:

But good news, deeply disappointed gamers: In the first-post launch update, the NHL15 team will add all the features you've been craving, like the ability to get your coach's useless feedback in Be A Pro mode (“You were out there for a goal against, that's a minus.”), and also see who the Three Stars of the Game were after every game you play (very important stuff there). There are other modes that will get minor tweaks too, like the ability to see when a player is injured in Hockey Ultimate Team.

Then, another month later, they'll let you play the game online with six people on a team, like you've been able to do for years. What a great opportunity for you, the consumer.

Meanwhile, most reviews of the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 version of the game essentially call it a $60 roster update.

Good job all around from EA Sports. They shouldn't be embarrassed at all.
