EA Reveals Free SimCity Apology Games

EA has revealed the list of eight Origin games offered to owners of SimCity for free, by way of an apology for the game's teething issues.

Last week, the company apologised for the continuing connection and server issues players were experiencing and stated that everyone who registers the game before March 25 will be allowed to choose one Origin game from a list of eligible titles to download for free.

The eligible titles are Battlefield 3 (Standard Edition), Bejeweled 3, Dead Space 3 (Standard Edition), Mass Effect 3 (Standard Edition), Medal of Honor Warfighter (Standard Edition), Need For Speed Most Wanted (Standard Edition), Plants vs. Zombies and SimCity 4 Deluxe Edition. You'll have until March 30 to claim your free game.

The post also includes an explanation from developers Maxis, which reads, "At Maxis, our studio values dictate that we innovate and create something that is quirky, complex and challenging. Sometimes this bites us in the butt, but our servers are green and we’re seeing record numbers of players all online and having a great time.

"We’re getting great feedback from our fans and know that many of you are having fun and exploring this whole new expression of SimCity.  We’re humbled by your patience and passion for the game. Thanks for building something very special with us, together."

Let us know which game you'll be getting in the comments below.
