IGN has done more last night, which includes writing a preview of the Sims 2 for the consoles (PS2, XBox, GameCube). They describe features like dating, a downtown area and cars, which seem to be from Nightlife rather than The Sims 2. Other than that, they mention the real options of the game, which include a buy and build mode, creation systems of "food, fashion and music," and a deeper sense of awareness and memory for Sims than on the PC version. Check out the brief preview for what else they have to say.
