GOG release?

[AstroAss]

Hi!

I'm super excited to see SIMS 1 and 2 finally hit digital storefronts (again). That being said - could we expect a GOG release, please?

Since SIMS 1 doesn't use the EA app anyway - might as well release on GOG and allow those of us who prefer to not deal with DRM to actually own an old game as it was intended (GOG is the next best thing after physical, since we at least get to hoard installers for safekeeping, like we hoarded CDs).

We'd REALLY appreciate it and this game is a PERFECT fit for GOG! Please consider a release there and I'll pick it up, as I'm sure many others would do too.

Thank you!

Agree with you, it should be an option. I am tempted to buy this, but then again.. do I really need this? lol.. I have it on disc but still a lot of work to reinstall.

Does GOG have any EA games? DRM free command and conquer would be great

Yeah GOG has a few EA games, like Dead Space original, SimCity and some Medal of Honor games, but not Command and Conquer

Would be nice but don't know if EA will do that.

I wish people from GOG would stop doing this. We get it, you feel overly entitled.

Asking for a release on a platform is being entitled?

Do you go into a McDonalds and asks them to add a Whopper to the menu? No, of course not.

Is GOG Burger King?

We're not asking Valve to sell the game on GOG, these forums are a way to get in touch with the DEVS and PUBLISHERS who may read this and consider a release on more platforms as a way to, you know...make more money...

In your own dumb logic - this is us meeting up with a Burger King C-suite marketing member (or whatever) over a coffee at McDonalds. We're asking the Burger King guy, not the McDonald's guy.

Now where yours screws up completely - you assume Sims belongs to Steam...? Nooo... Sims belongs to EA and where exactly EA sell the game - be it on their own store, Steam, GOG, xbox, Epic, etc - has no relevance to anything. There is no "whopper" here that magically can't be sold on another store... There's no competition for EA - it's just more sales to a wider audience. Like Coca-Cola selling their sugar water everywhere, instead of limiting themselves to 1 store chain only. Get it?

Aaanyway... If you're gonna try and make up a "gotcha!" analogy - at least think whether it makes sense in the first place...

This isn't the GOG forum either.
