Sign up now for the Sim City beta. Fill out a quick survey and upload your Dxdiag. WTF is a Dxdiag you ask? Don't worry, I had to ask BatRastered to show me how to do it. I'll show you too.

 

Isn't that pretty. I'm sure every step toward building a town like that is amazing fun. Can't wait to lay some pipe in Sim City. 

To sign up for the beta head on over to http://www.simcity.com/en_US/beta/info log into your EA account. Create 1 if you are a nuab. Then click sign up for the beta. The very last part it asks for a Dxdiag file. With 0 instructions on how to get this file. Luckily BatRastered was sitting right next to me and explained.

Step 1: Windows: Run: dxdiag

Step 2 Click "Save all information" Save it to the desktop or where ever you want Jimmy!

Step 3: Drop the file in your survey and click send. 


Well there you go. I hope you get in, but not until I get in first. I'm needing to play this really bad. I can't wait! Is it even possible for that old feeling again? I guess we'll have to wait and see.
