421. Happy Holiday Stuff Info

Written on Thursday 26 October 2006 at 03:21 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

Recently we already reported about the Happy Holiday Stuff pack, which has now made a more in-depth appearance at the official site. The pack will be released in three editions. The first one is the basis for the two others as well: the Happy Holiday Stuff pack. This pack contains 60 holiday themed items, of which 20 are new and 40 were already in last year's Holiday (Christmas) Party Pack. To compensate a little for those who bought last year's pack, a special Happy Holiday Mini Pack will be made available through EA Downloader only - it won't be available in stores. This mini pack contains just the 20 new items against a reduced price. Finally there's the Sims 2 Holiday Edition, which bundles the base game and Happy Holiday Stuff. This game will be available solely in stores, EA Downloader will not have the bundle. The stuff pack will be available in both ways, with an additional bonus if you pre-order online. You'll get a Blizzardous Biosphere object as download when you order the pack from EA's Store. You can also get a trailer for the Holiday Edition or the Stuff pack. Renders of the items, screenshots and some small artwork can all be found in the remainder of this news post. See the official site's holiday page for more details. Read More!

422. GameSpot Reviews Pets

Written on Thursday 26 October 2006 at 02:07 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

Gaming network GameSpot has played Pets on the PC, and their review can now be read online. They start off by telling a bit about hamsters and birds, but quickly switch to dogs and cats, their training and careers. Trying to mold a pet's behaviour is very time consuming, and it's difficult to raise a pet, especially with Sims with careers. The new music tracks on the several (existing) radio stations in the game are mentioned, as well as the lots the game ships with. Overall the expansion does not redefine the game, but adds up to it and is probably best for experienced players. The final score GameSpot gives is a 7.1 out of 10. You can read the full review or watch some of the new screenshots for details.

423. IM with Don Lothario

Written on Thursday 26 October 2006 at 01:42 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

The Sims 2 UK, the official site for the Sims 2, has made it possible for everyone with Windows Live Messenger (MSN Messenger) to chat with Don Lothario, one of the well-known characters from Pleasantview in the Sims 2. Although there's no real person behind the messenger account, but a computerised bot that gives automated answers to whatever you type, there's plenty of stuff to talk about with Don. You can play games, check the horoscopes, participate in a poll, find out about the Sims 2, read some fun facts about the game, get goodies and more. Add donlothario@hotmail.co.uk to your buddy list in Live Messenger, and start chatting to him. Saying "home" to him will help you go through the menus to find all options, but you can also take the challenge to find the features yourself by saying the correct words to him.

The official UK site of the Sims 2 has made four e-cards available for you to send to your friends. The e-cards feature some of the artworks released before the game was out. You can send as many cards as you wish, and include your own personal message in each of them. The E-Cards page also still has several older e-cards to send out, for any occasion. You need to log in using your EA.com (Sims 2) account to be able to send cards.

With Pets being released on a number of platforms last week, EA has updated its online customer support pages with help with the expansion pack (PC) and console games. Many common questions, about unlocking pets and features, but also technical issues with installing or running the game are covered in the FAQs.

Written on Thursday 19 October 2006 at 03:50 by ChEeTaH - 1 comment.

We already reported about The Sims 2: In Season being listed on a registration page a while ago. While that has already been removed, the title does indeed seem to be a possibility for the upcoming expansion pack. A flyer that comes with the Sims 2 Pets on PC advertises the game, for which a small teaser is now also put on the official site's front page. The first site to post about it was the Danish GameSection, but Rosierealea, member on the official site, has also posted a large English version of the inlay, which you can see below.
