WRUP: 'Unable to connect to the SimCity servers'

Sigh.

...

so, what else is everyone playing while the rest of us wait?

• Alexander Sliwinski (@Sliwinski): I'm obligated to keep checking the SimCity servers until they work. After that, I'm supposed to write a review. I should really pick up Tomb Raider, eh?

• David Hinkle (@DaveHinkle): This weekend I'm trying to make it in the big leagues in MLB 13: The Show and going through Dead Space 3 with a friend.

• JC Fletcher (@jcfletcher): There are a lot of things competing for my time this weekend, many of them games, but only one of them Runner2.

• Jess Conditt (@JessConditt): Number of fedoras in Vergil's Downfall: 0. So far.

• Jordan Mallory (@Jordan_Mallory): I'm playing Give Me Back My City: The SXSW Home Game.

• Ludwig Kietzmann (@LudwigK): ...

• Mike Schramm (@MikeSchramm): I finally got started on Assassin's Creed 3. I'm about four hours in, and I presume the tutorial will be over soon.

• Mike Suszek (@MikeSuszek): I just lost the Super Bowl in my Madden 13 league (thank you all for your support during this difficult time), so I'm going to focus on throwing strikes in MLB 2K13.

• Richard Mitchell (@TheRichardM): Hoping to sever the final leg of Dead Space 3. Then it's Bit.Trip Runners 1 and 2, some Retro City Rampage and ... maybe some Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon.

• Sinan Kubba (@Shoinan): I'm playing a covert urban blockbuster of some sort.

• Steven Wong: I'll most likely be playing Guild Wars 2, and I don't anticipate any server authentication issues.

• Xav de Matos (@Xav): Last minute switch up has me reviewing God of War: Ascension, so I'm wrapping that up this weekend. Review soon. Also, check my Twitch channel for upcoming streams. What should I play?
