474. MaxoidGrant Blogs about Pet Chance Cards

Written on Thursday 7 September 2006 at 17:05 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

Every so often a Maxoid blogs about upcoming Sims games. This time MaxoidGrant, who has already made a story with pets, has now revealed a bit about the chance cards in the new expansion pack. Since dogs and cats can have careers too, they'll also get chance cards which can lead to rewards, or something not so very good. In his blog MaxoidGrant gives an example of a chance card about Stella who has to guard a precious jewel in a jewelry store. The scene is set and two choices are given. MaxoidGrant explains that both choices can lead to both a positive and negative outcome, similar to chance cards for Sims. Check the blog entry for the exact details.

475. Get A Life Genuine Sims Product

Written on Thursday 7 September 2006 at 16:56 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

A little while ago we reported about a game called "The Sims 2: Get a Life" for the PC. Now another online retailer in South Africa, Take2, has a listing of the Get a Life Edition of the Sims 2. The recommended retail price of 300 South African Rand comes down to roughly £21 or $40 (US), slightly cheaper than what was reported earlier. The little price difference may be merely because of the difference in region. The word "Edition" suggests that this is a repackaging of the Sims 2, probably bundled with either an expansion pack or stuff pack, or multiple of them. Exact details are however still unclear, and nothing can really be assumed at the time. The release date listed on Take2 is also different from the earlier mentioned 29 September: Take2 expects the product to be out early February next year. Thanks to Sims2Community for spotting the product listing.

That the pack is genuine is confirmed by MaxoidMoonBelly, who in a BBS post says "information will be released at some point in time, in the future. Patience for the perfectly baked goods will offer rich rewards of chewy goodness." The post has been updated yesterday, and MaxoidMoonBelly said "it is a legitimate EA/Sims product, more information will be coming out soon," before. Of course we'll keep you up-to-date with details around this new edition of the Sims 2.

476. GameSpot Previews Pets on PC - Movies and Screenshots

Written on Thursday 7 September 2006 at 16:18 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

We already reported about GameSpy's report about The Sims 2 Pets for PC, the upcoming expansion pack, last week. But GameSpot also published a preview of the expansion last week, along with a host of screenshots and videos. The preview describes the Create a Pet mode, as well as their scratching or chewing behaviour. Their moods are briefly mentioned, and that it affects their performance at work. GameSpot concludes that it's interesting how it will turn out in the end, since time is a limited resource in the game, and taking care of a pet requires that important resource. After reading the preview, you can also check out the 14 new screenshots or the 3 new "Gameplay" movies, all posted 29 August 2006. You can also find the new screenshots below.

477. Pets PC Preview at GameSpy

Written on Sunday 3 September 2006 at 16:19 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

Gaming network GameSpy has recently checked out The Sims 2 Pets for PC, the fourth expansion pack for the Sims 2. The result is a new preview of the pack, which repeats mostly old information. They cover the life-like animations and of course the training of the pets, done by praising and scolding them for good and bad behaviour - in whichever way you like. GameSpy also mentions the problem furniture may have with the new cats and dogs. They also say Create a Pet is in many ways more flexible than Create a Sim, with the options to add layers to customise a breed. Genetics are also briefly mentioned, followed by the wolves in the pack. Wolves with glowing eyes may sometimes visit at night, resulting in lycanthropy in case of a bite. The entire preview has more details spread over the two pages.

478. Pets at the GamesConvention

Written on Sunday 3 September 2006 at 05:00 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

A week ago Leipzig in Germany was completely filled with gamers from all over the world, who were visiting the GamesConvention held near that city. Several Sims fansites - mostly German - also attended the show, and have posted their previews and pictures of the Sims 2 Pets, which was playable on the floor. First of all there's the official German site, which has posted a large special with many pictures taken at the GamesConvention. Follow the links after each parahraph to find pictures. Congratulations to our affiliate SimsZone and SimTimes for winning EA Sims Awards, for being the largest German-speaking community and the best German coverage of Pets respectively. Both sites visited the GC as well, and you can check out both SimsZone's coverage and SimTimes' special. You can also find some more screenshots on their third and fourth page of the screenshots index.

Furthermore, the Japanese gaming site 4Gamer.net has a preview of the PC game with several screenshots of Create a Pet mode. They also have two movies, linked to between the rows of screenshots. Finally there are two more fansites: TheSims.cz has a preview from the GamesConvention, whereas the German TheSims.de has only several pictures of the expansion pack, in between official screenshots in their screenshot index.

479. Glamour Life Memory Game

Written on Sunday 3 September 2006 at 03:39 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

Recently Glamour Life was promoted with a mini game in which you can decorate a home using items from the stuff pack. Now Maxis has created a second mini-game on the official site, which is a memory game. You have to find and match items from the stuff pack, and so get the complete puzzle solved. It can be found through a hidden link on the About page of Glamour Life. Try to find it yourself, but if you're unable to find it, or just too lazy you can also head straight to the memory game.

480. Glamour Life Outfits and Lots

Written on Sunday 3 September 2006 at 03:22 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

For those who have Glamour Life installed, some additional downloads from Maxis can already be put in the game. MaxoidMoonBelly has created several lots using the new items from Glamour Life, and she has also made a few recolours of outfits in the stuff pack released last week. The houses require only the base game and Glamour Life, without any other expansion packs. The outfits add some colour to the ones that ship with Glamour Life, and are made as regular daytime clothes. MoonBelly hopes to upload some more downloads on the exchange in the upcoming months - no new meshes, but just new textures on existing ones. You can find links to all the items in the exchange on MaxoidMoonBelly's blog.
