IGN has posted a preview of the final expansion pack for The Sims 1: Makin' Magic. Along with some screenshots, it comes with some bits of new info:
"But it's not all work and there are plenty of opportunities to have fun without getting your pointy hat all singed. The Haunted House rides are large roller coasters that can be assembled in a variety of ways -- well, whatever variety you can get from the nine main pieces that is -- and you can even create these rides on Vacation Island if you have that expansion pack. (There are other connections with previous expansions: Superstar's obsessed fan leaves black roses can be made in to fame-boosting charms, Unleashed's pets can transform into humans, etc.) You can also build your very own mini-golf courses. [...]The whole preview is 2 pages long. Once the expansion pack's released, IGN will post a proper review of it. The release datum is still set at 28 October (US), or 31 October in Europe. You can find the full preview right here.
"Magic Town also has a special fourth lot reserved for residents of Magic Town. That's right; if you have enough Magic Coins you can buy yourself a house here and never have to leave. The visuals here are very Addams Family-like with some really interesting touches. For instance, you won't have flowers in your yard. Instead you'll have large crystal structures and beanstalks stretching up the heavens."
