>Requiring servers to run.

Remember when EA claimed SimCity needed to be online 24/7 because only their servers could handle the intense calculations and simulation, only for them to not only be proved wrong in the first week of launch, and then a year later actually add full offline mode?

Yes it is? There is nothing stopping companies from building in central-server dependencies even to games designed for single players.

I remember this copping flak for being unplayable on 'launch' because of it
