After last year's release of Pets for various platforms, including Nintendo's GameCube and DS already, the game is now also coming to the Wii. Expected in June, the game will be similar to the other console versions (PlayStation 2, GameCube and PSP) of the Sims 2 Pets. The only main difference will be that it's easier to control with the Wii controllers: you can just point and click to direct Sims, grab walls and furniture and place them around, all using the Nunchuck and the Wii remote. Information is available on the product page, where you can also find a slightly new trailer for the Wii version.

237. "Bon Voyage" Next Expansion?

Written on Wednesday 2 May 2007 at 19:57 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

As you should expect, Seasons isn't the last expansion pack for the Sims 2. Nevertheless the topic for the sixth expansion has not yet been known until recently, when according to SnootySims BBS member ecaguimbalu found a PC release title for September at VideoEta.com. The site focuses mainly on DVDs and movies, so the reliability of the release date can be questioned as there are no details as to where the information comes from, presumably from the publisher (EA). The site claims the expansion will be called "Bon Voyage". Online shop Buy.com also has the game in their catalog for the price of an expansion pack and a release date in early September. Confirmation from EA or Maxis about the next expansion pack is still pending, but of course we'll keep you up-to-date with all the latest news.

239. Ford Mustang Download

Written on Wednesday 2 May 2007 at 19:21 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

Until now cars in the Sims have only been available to the happy owners of the Nightlife expansion pack. Recently that was changed, as EA released a Ford Mustang for download. Although at least one newer expansion than Nightlife is necessary in this case, any Sims fan with one of those packs can get the sports car into their game. For those without Nightlife but with Open For Business, Pets or Seasons there's a carkit download as well, which includes the driveways and such to make the car (only the Mustang!) work in the game. In the first version there was a bug with the headlights, but that's been fixed by now. If you previously downloaded the car and don't have Pets or Seasons, then you will need to do so again to solve the problem. It will be necessary to uninstall the first version before installing the new one though, as explained by MaxoidDramaLlama in a BBS post. To download the item head on over to the Ford Mustang page.
