No real forms of modding are compatible, and the online content far exceeds the amount available ingame. The value of this should be no more than $10.

A waste of time and money.

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Great game but terrible programming

3) Video. After a few hours it gets slow and the video ... Read More
