SimCity - Fearless - 03-01-2013

This Tuesday the new SimCity comes out.  A feature is region play, where you and others build cities within a region and trade resources or utilities with each other.  You can also work together to build a Great Work, like an international airport or a super solar power facility, that will benefit the entire region.  Each Mayor can specialize their city too, one can make a flashy casino tourists city while another builds a grungy mining city.  So, is anyone else getting this?  It would be interesting to see what kind of city pops up.

I pre-ordered it!  excitement abounds!

I played the beta of this, actually! Sadly, I'm not going to be able to afford the game, or I'd join you all. <3

I'm in the same boat. Liked the beta, love the concepts for the online play.

A friend of mine offered to gift it to me, then we found out that unlike Steam, Origin does not have a gifting feature. It really pissed him off, because I generally don't agree to such things, and the first time I do...he's thwarted.

Apparently it doesn't have a gifting option anymore. I know that SW:TOR was available via website and 3rd party vendors. Apparently all digital sales for SimCity are Origin only though. He looked everywhere for a gifting option. =/

Nopax made me buy this >_>
I have no idea how it works, but I'll be playing it apparently.

I ordered mine through amazon. They post the serial code thingy to your amazon account but you put the code into origin.  I suppose you could gift it that way.
