I just downloaded the Sims Online and I'll be damned if they say you need a registration code. Where the hell do you get one? That kinda shit looks like you can only get it by ordering it. WHY THE FUCK DID THEY PUT IT UP FOR DOWNLOAD THEN?

IM pissed. A Gig of hard drive space better not be going to waste

umm... did you look at the box??? it's probably a number written somewhere on the box... or maybe in a book or something else in the box... it didn't say anything on the website about it other than you need one? :confused:

YOU HAVE TO ORDER THE PLAY TEST CD FROM THEIR WEBSITE... WHEN ITS SHIPPED IT COMES WITH THE CODE ON THE FRONT

(and it is worth the gig... i've already played it a lot)

Well then why did they put it up for download? did I just download it for nothing?

just a thought, but maybe it sends it to whatever e-mail address your fileplanet account is?

I'm going to join the test, but there's so many big names of other games being downloaded, so I have to wait the long sluggish time of 118 minutes, before downloading. However, I'm leaving my computer on tonight to get TSO. I'm excited about this!

Why couldn't you just pay the 40 bucks at a store? It would have made it a lot easier!

Its a beta test...its SUPPOSED to be FREE! :rolleyes:

Doesn't the beta test require that you enter a credit card number? I'm holding off on downloading it, because I dont have a credit card. Can anyone confirm this?

and is it a game in itself? or do you need the sims on your comp. first?

It's a stand-alone game, and yes, you do need a credit card number.

I tried downloading it, but the download froze once it was half done. :(
