I should not need to explain this one.

Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

When the review was first published in 2007, it was reported that Electronic Arts were not happy with the review and complained to the magazine's publishers and editors, resulting in the reviewer no longer being asked or allowed to write reviews for any more The Sims titles.

And the world became a worse place for it.
