Until people learn to vote with their wallets, nothing will change.
- cameronh90 14y agoSome (most) people probably wouldn't have been aware of EA's past failures. And EA have been refusing refunds, so they've basically eliminated that avenue of voting with your wallet.
- chaz 14y agoThis only works if the products are good substitutes for each other, and in entertainment products, this is usually not the case. There's only one Beatles, one Star Wars franchise, and one Sim City -- lots of alternative ways to spend time, but no substitutes. Even with the kerfuffle, I will still buy Sim City when it comes out for Mac because I remember spending many, many late nights with the original game.
- scottux 14y agoThank you, you've put into words what I've long believed but been unable to describe. I definitely believe in voting with my wallet, but I can't see "don't buy the new SimCity" as a legitimate option when that's precisely what I want to play. Until CitiesXXL comes out with identical enough gameplay, this is the only game that will scratch that particular itch.
