2421. New PS2 Shots

Written on Sunday 9 June 2002 at 23:29 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

PS2.IGN has posted a great number of 17 screenshots of The Sims on the PlayStation 2 after visiting EA. Along with them, there's an article:

"The biggest chance in the game is the way you interact with the characters. The UI (User Interface) is quite easy, and just as intuitive as the Sim Theme Park and perhaps even a little easier to use. By using the controller's analog pads to direct the characters and make things happen, players can customize all sorts of cool things, such as interchanging clothes with other characters, including hats and such, and players can even customize their furniture, too."

2422. New Downtown Lot Added

Written on Sunday 9 June 2002 at 09:37 by Jendea - 0 comments.

Middleton Mall has just been added to the downtown section. I love malls for downtown because they have lots of seperated areas to mix and mingle, plus a bit of everything.

2423. TSO Best Online Game at E3

Written on Saturday 8 June 2002 at 22:27 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

At GameSpy an article has been posted about the MMORPGs (Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Games): the awards for the best Massively Multiplayer Online Game (MMOG). The Sims Online has won this award. It was chosen as winner because it has a 'socially based rewards system'. It's also good that the playig environment is created by the users, and is not pre-defined as many other online games. However it is yet too early to call it a success:

"Maybe it's too early to start calling The Sims Online a hit. The final product might fall short of the potential -- with online games you never know until people start playing. But regardless of how it does, The Sims Online is a watershed product whose impact will be felt in the online gaming scene for years to come. Raise a glass to the genius of Will Wright, then buckle yourself in for one hell of a ride."

The whole article with all results of the awards can be read at this page.

2424. The Neighborhood Handler 3.8 coming!

Written on Saturday 8 June 2002 at 14:00 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

Coming soon to The Sims Zone: The Neighborhood Handler 3.8! I've been working on it again lately, and improved quite a few things, fixed bugs, and I'm now getting it ready for its release. It will still be a little while before it's all ready for the release, as there is still some work to be done for it. A lot has already been done though, and so I think I can release the program to the tnhh group in about a week. Another week later, it'll be released here. If you want to join the group for free, and so get the new version earlier than anyone else, visit the Neighborhood Handler Site. Read More!

2425. New affiliate

Written on Saturday 8 June 2002 at 02:27 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

As of today, we've affiliated with Sim Gateway. This is another Sims Site, with all great stuff including downloads - of course. All I can say about it: pay them a visit!

2426. More Houses

Written on Saturday 8 June 2002 at 02:20 by Jendea - 0 comments.

Two more houses available today, Malibu Vista and Maple Drive.
My next addition (still in the works) will be a mall for downtown - posting soon!

2427. SimDay Report: International Sites

Written on Thursday 6 June 2002 at 20:44 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

This weeks' SimDay is yet another small one: there are now international sites of The Sims (again). They used to have the official site translated into several languages before, but removed those because those sites were never up-to-date. There are sites for several (but not all) European and Asian countries. To go to the links of them all, visit this page.

2428. Another poll...

Written on Thursday 6 June 2002 at 02:10 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

It's thursday again, which means a new poll at The Sims Zone. This week it's a bit new: you can select more than one item, and so vote several items at once. This week we want to know what upcoming Sim-Games (except Sims Deluxe, as that's probably nothing really new) you will buy. You can choose between The Sims Unleashed (new expansion pack), The Sims 2 (sequel), The Sims Online, The Sims Hands On (PS2), SimCity 4 and SimUniverse - the game that's only in Will Wright's head and maybe on a few Maxis computers yet. Vote on the right or on this page. To see the last poll results, which was about why SimGolf was delayed in Europe, can be found here.

Hi, I'm Jen, the new lot designer. I just wanted to wave "hello" to everyone and thank Andy for the great introduction.
