I beg to differ.
I loved SC2000. I would have purchased this SimCity right away had it not required DRM or constant online connection.
But after seeing the first McDonalds or other licensed or paid-placement crap show up in the game I would have never played it again.

You mean the optional "paid-placement crap" that you have to purposely go download and then purposely build within your city? That isn't at all rational. Tons of games have had sponsored promotional items, World of Warcraft's Mountain Dew thing for one very large scale example. But just like WoW's Mountain Dew thing this too is entirely optional.
- marshray 14y agoAs long as it's optional, I have no problem with it. Do I expect EA to be able to resist the urge to try to slip this crap in with other parts of the game? Do you?
- pifflesnort 14y agoGiven that EA's Monopoly for the iPad has a built-in Prius to serve as one of the game pieces, I'd say not trusting them is wise.
