In addition, I see that it has "Plus+" integration - which, if it's anything like the horrible approach taken by other games, means you'll be FORCED to login to the service just to play the game. This hard-edged approach means that I (and some others) will not be installing the game at all. I wish companies would learn that making a social gaming network optional is great; but making it mandatory, is a sure way to alienate any and all potential customers.
