Maxis' Move followed by Rumours
The
relocation of the studios of Maxis has made some people worried. It's rumoured that the move could cause (or has caused) delays of The Sims 2. Besides the extra commute time for employees of about 2 hours, some of those 300 employees have been laid off. The reason is that there were already people at the new location (where EA was already based) filling their positions. There are also
rumours that one of those who was laid off, was the lead designer of The Sims 2. EA has not commented about the suspicions yet. This information has been published by
PC Zone UK.

Please note that some of the things mentioned are only rumours and can in no way be considered definitely true.

So this could all be a lie? Well if this really happened would the Sims 2 get delayed AGAIN because the lead designer is gone?

I have a life so don't tell me to get one. I'm just interested. I'm not a sim freak like those people who just sit there and play 24/7. you better watch who you say get a life to.

No kidding. Who are you anyways? Yeah, I'll admit, I'm quite an addict, but I have a life apart from the game. You better watch yourself dude.
