521. Stuff Pack 3: Festive Holiday?
Written on Saturday 15 July 2006 at 03:05 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.
Even though Stuff pack 2: Glamour Life has only just been announced, it seems like there are already plans for a third Stuff pack to be released early December. The British shop Play.com has a listing of "The Sims 2: Festive Holiday Stuff" at the price of £7.99 (about $15). This is the same price as the Family Fun and Glamour Life packs, suggesting that it will indeed be a full Stuff pack in a holiday theme, slightly bigger than last year's Holiday Party Pack, which had 40 instead of 60 items and was slightly cheaper. An official announcement of the pack is still a long way from now, and details probably won't be officially revealed until the last quarter of 2006.
 

522. Glamour Life Revealed
Written on Saturday 15 July 2006 at 02:53 by ChEeTaH - 4 comments.
Following rumours of only a few days ago that the second Stuff pack for the Sims 2 would be called "Glamour Life," Maxis has confirmed that to be a fact, by revealing details of the pack on the official site. A product page has been created, on which you can find 17 screenshots, 33 item renders, 2 videos and the system requirements. All of that is accompanied with the following description of the pack:
"Your Sims can now indulge in a glamorous life with this collection of luxurious furniture, fashionable clothing, and extravagant décor items. Create lavish homes furnished with the finest modern bedroom, living room, and dining room sets. Turn heads in the neighborhood as your Sims show off elegant gowns, red carpet formalwear, and cool casual styles at their next big soirée. Your Sims will live the high life with 60 new items including pop-art paintings, sectional sofas, a high-end stereo, fur coats, and more!"
As with the Family Fun pack, Glamour Life will contain about 60 items (objects, clothing, etc), of which roughly half can already be seen through the image renders. A release date has not yet been given, although the intro flash on the official site mentions August. Whether earlier rumours saying mid-August or else late August are true has not yet been confirmed. The price of the pack will probably be similar to that of Family Fun Stuff: around $20/£10. Availability through EA Downloader has also not yet been confirmed. You can find all screenshots (including some earlier ones, in higher quality, as well as one featuring the logo) and all item renders in the Read More part, or on the official screenshots respectively renders pages. You can also check out the two videos showing the features and the system requirements. We'll keep you updated with the latest about this stuff pack as soon as the news comes in.

After several mentions on online shops of the upcoming stuff pack, known as "Glamour Stuff" until now, there's now some more concrete information regarding the stuff pack. The Thai EA site has published a product page of the stuff pack, which contains some basic information as well as some screenshots. As far as rumours go, mostly from pre-order pages (which no longer exist), the mini expansion will be released late August. The screenshots also reveal a more detailed name: in the right bottom corner the logo is displayed, with the title "The Sims 2 Glamour Life Stuff" 'Srikwan01' on the official site's BBS ('The T' on TheSimsResource) has found the page and posted some information in his TSR blog. You can find that text, as well as some item descriptions in the Read More part of this post. Click the five screenshot thumbnails to see larger versions - the other images are the Thai logo, as well as a few artworks of some of the 60 objects in the pack. Thanks to SnootySims for the find.

Written on Monday 26 June 2006 at 19:20 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.
A little while ago publisher Aspyr announced that the third expansion pack for the Sims 2 will be released on Mac as well. Open for Business will be the same as the PC version of the expansion pack, except for the platform it runs on. As always, The Sims 2 for Mac is required for the expansion. The pack is currently in early development and thus the release date might still change. The price is set at $34.99, according to MacWorld. Pre-orders will soon be taken. Of course The Sims Zone will keep you up-to-date with the release information of the pack.
