EA seems really concerned that we are connected to the internet when we start are games.The first time I read their welcome page on the launcher while disconnected took me by surprise.I am not to crazy about in order to get this,you have to have that in order for this to work.I would love to have the world tool without the shopping hook up in the game.
Maybe they're trying to go the route of Steam, although I love Steam. Or maybe the Store isn't making as much easy cash they thought it'd be making and are trying more routes to remedy this.
In game Pop-up ads are soon to come, no? "Your child Sims are about to age up to teen? Why not buy him/him this lovely new hairstyle!"

I play all of my games on a separate hard drive with no internet access so regardless, that will be a useless button for me. However, if it is able to be killed so I don't accidentally click on it and hear crap about not being connected to the internet, that would be great.

Or some guy would come to any new house you make and deliver a computer with a big pop-up about how awesome the next sims game will be.
Oh, wait.

Introducing - Shop Mode! You heard right folks. The December update will introduce a button that will allow you to shop from The Sims 3 Store from inside your game. This new feature will enhance your shopping experience at The Sims 3 Store and allow you to access The Sims 3 Store via Shop Mode from the main menu, build or buy mode or during Create-a-Sim. As you purchase new items, they will be added to your catalog, while your game is running. You can browse the full Store catalog directly from your game and purchase furniture, décor, hair, clothing - without ever closing your game. This is a really exciting new experience for The Sims series, and we look forward to sharing with you!
Wow, whoever wrote this almost made that sound like a good thing. I'm unsure if I should praise his/her talent for euphemisms or wish him/her to suffocate on something. Well, probably the former ... then the latter.
Now, if they would have managed to integrate this Create a World thingy into the game to enable modifying of existing 'hoods, that would have been something.

Shop mode could... possibly be made worse... if it hijacked the in-game TVs and replaced them with live streaming advertisements... The shopping channel becoming a showcase showing off new store crap.
