Re: No One Had Ever B**ch Again!

This message has been up for three days now.
So I go to their tech support question system and ask a question and I get this:

Re: No One Had Ever B**ch Again!
Man I thought it an impossible task, making SimCity 4 into a worth while game, but boy did they pull it off here.
This expansion pack really does a lot for making the game a great game. I actually enjoy playing it now and have even crashed a chopper, both the two wheel kind and the whirly bird kind.
This is by far well worth the money I forked out.
The game is now quite fun to play. If you have not checked it out, this deleuxe Version is well worth it.
Now if we can just get www.simcity4.com to fix thier web site.

To answer your question "Why do the big companies make getting help so difficult?"
It's because they want your money and don't give a rats *** about it once they have it.

Actually I think a description of the product is definitely necessary. Especially for a series game like SimCity. What is different in 4 than in 3? These are the kinds of questions consumers use to determine whether or not to purchase an item.
It worked for MOO3. I preordered that POS based on descriptions on the Web site and the forums. The descriptions painted a much different picture than what the game really is. I was expecting something more like MOO2.
I started playing and was soo bored I kept walking into the other room to see what was on TV. The wife kept asking me "Aren't you playing your new game?"

Granted though, I think most everyone has heard of the SimCity series. The title is self-explanatory too. The biggest difference between 3k and 4 is the region play though.
