1061. Screenshot Mania
Written on Friday 30 August 2002 at 01:07 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.
So far still no SimDay, but that doesn't mean nothing happens. For instance, GameSpot has posted 5 new screenshots of Unleashed, the fifth expansion pack for The Sims. You can see sims gardening (as below), or some in a pet shop. You can see all of them right here. Also, SimsZone.de has visited the german "Games Convention". From there, they brought a couple of new screenshots of The Sims Online. You can see bits of the world in two of them, and sims in interaction in two other shots. Visit this page there to see them all. As it seems that GameSpot is currently not showing the screenshots correctly (not to me anyway), you can see all five Unleashed screenshots at SimsZone.de too.

1063. Unleashed Interview
Written on Wednesday 28 August 2002 at 22:58 by ChEeTaH - 1 comment.
The Gamers' Temple has posted an interview with Jenna Chalmers from Maxis. She is a designer, and is currently working on The Sims Unleashed. There's quite some information about Unleashed in it, but not a whole lot of new things. However, there is a bit of an interesting tip in it:
"As far as pets go, dogs and cats require a lot of care in their first days home from the adoption center. While it may be tempting to buy several at once, for a smoother ride you may want to bring them home one at a time."
It also tells us that your Sims need quite some charisma to get their parrots talking. Get your sims ready for that, you can already train them for that now! Also, it seems that they've added skins they made for Create-A-Sim - which comes with The Sims Deluxe. However, that's all they say so we still don't know if that comes with this expansion pack too. Plus, there'll be some new music in Unleashed which, according to Jenna, is just great. We'll see about all that in September/October when this new expansion is due. The whole interview can be read from this page (it's a few pages long), all at the Gamers' Temple.

1066. Screenshots Unleashed
Written on Tuesday 27 August 2002 at 00:12 by ChEeTaH - 3 comments.
At the Taiwanese site of EA, a couple of new screenshots of Unleashed have appeared. One of them shows the method of transportation to the community areas: a city bus. Another one lets us see what selecting a pet is like. The rest are basically some screenshots of shops and community areas. Go this page to see all the screenshots.

 

1067. Deluxe word from Maxis
Written on Monday 26 August 2002 at 23:08 by ChEeTaH - 3 comments.
Three days ago a Maxis official posted something on the BBS of the official site with some things in it about The Sims Deluxe. They aren't too good for us loyal fans, as basically it says the same as the press release - and that Maxis has, in their opinion, put in a lot of time and effort. It also says that there is a rebate coupon of $10 included with the pack, but as we know that only counts for people in the US or Canada, with original proof of purchase and that the action is only valid until the end of this year. It may not be just a compilation of The Sims and Livin' Large, but still it doesn't sound worth another $30 or even $40. You still have to buy the game and the expansion pack again if all you want are just a few extras. And that costs you $40, only a few lucky people will be able to get $10 back. And I still think it are only just a few extras, as 25 objects and 50 clothing options may sound nice, but in the end you will probably be disappointed.

1070. TSO Box Shot
Written on Saturday 24 August 2002 at 21:19 by ChEeTaH - 3 comments.
Some news that's actually new this time: the box-shot of The Sims Online has been found on the internet. EB-Games is now showing the box which looks absolutely not like the boxes of The Sims games as we know them. Also, it doesn't look like it's a DVD-style case that most games come into these days. If that means that The Sims Online will come in a box like the old days, is yet unknown. It might also mean that this is not the final box shot too. We will find out soon enough. Below is the box as it's been found:
