Nightlife Preview and Lots of Screens
The second expansion pack for the Sims 2, Nightlife, is nearing completion and with less than a month to go to its release, GameSpot has had some exclusive hands-on time with the game. In their preview written about it, some new details are given. For example, the pre-made downtown area will feature 31 locations to go to, including clubs, restaurants, spas, parks, an art museum, a grocery, bars, shops, and more. The Gypsy Matchmaker which can also be found downtown will set up a date for you for §5,000. That is more expensive than some cars, which come from §950 to §11,500. Added is also the "Ask" interaction, which besides asking about wants and fears also lets you know about the other Sim's job and how much money they make. Besides all that there are dozens of new options in Create-A-Sim. The preview also mentions the new lights, which are basically the only graphical improvements to the game. They do seem to slow down the framerate of the game a bit if a lot is going on, so tweaking the graphical details settings might be needed to keep your game running smoothly. Other than that, the expansion pack will probably be received better as it has a bigger impact on the original game than University did, says Gamespot. Along with the preview, 22 screenshots were posted. 20 Other screenshots come from the official Japanese site. These small shots were found by SnootySims. One of them shows what could be a food fight, so there might be throwing more than just drinks in the expansion pack. Click all the thumbnails in the read more bit (below or behind the link) for larger versions of all these screenshots. Thanks to joesemsims for the Gamespot link.
