The games site
GamePro has posted an article with 15 screenshots of The Sims on PlayStation2. The article is 4 pages long and has - besides an interview with Will Wright - also some information about the game. For instance, we can read that the option to play without end - like on the PC - will still be available. However, there are more play modes too, like the two-player rumble. Games can be saved on memory cards so you can easily continue playing at a friend's place. Of course, there are also the completely 3D graphics. The PS2 version of The Sims will contain 20 exclusive objects, and the best objects of Livin' Large, House Party and Hot Date - recreated to get the best out of the PS2. The controls are also enhanced, so players can get the hang of it "
in 30 seconds", says Michael Perry, the design director of the game. As if all that info isn't enough, there are also 15 new screenshots available. To read the article and see the screenshots, go to
GamePro's feature.

The big news is here: The Sims Unleashed has officially been announced. Also, the first details of this new, and probably the last, expansion pack for The Sims are in the same press release. The rumours about the pets were right:
"For the first time ever, the Sims can visit a pet store and bring home a variety of creatures and accoutrements. Players will make a big splash with the addition of a lumbering Labrador or fickle feline to their Sim family. They can also buy a parrot, turtle, lizard or fish that are fun for the whole family but don't need to be house trained."
But, there's a whole lot more to look out for...

Yup, it's thursday again, which means it's time for another poll. This time, we wonder if you ever use cheats in The Sims. Are you one of those who can't live without them, or do you rather play normally and don't you use cheats? Have your say on the right, or right
here. As for the previous poll - "What is the best in The Sims?" - the results were quite divided. The winning result was "Expanding the game with downloads" though, which got 40 votes (29.2%). Second came "Building houses and areas" (26 votes, 18.98%) closely followed by "Furnishing houses and areas" (24 votes, 17.52%). 20 people told us they like to run the Sims' lifes, while only 7 like to ruin them. Only 7 other people voted that they like the designing of extras the best. "Killing Sims" did a bit better, with 13 of 137 votes, which is 9.49%. All results - including those of the old polls - can be found in
the poll archive.

My downloads are like buses. Nothing comes for a while and then three come at once. Well, here they are and I hope the wait was worth it.
President Josiah Bartlet from "The West Wing" will be followed by his first lady and staff.
If you wonder whatever happened to Paul & Helen from "Big Brother (UK) 2001", why not move them into your neighborhood?
These skins are available

I'm breaking into new territory today with my first attempt at a co-ordinated roof, wall and floor pack: the Rose Pack.
To celebrate, I've added the Rose Cottage Bed & Breakfast Inn that uses the themed pack, also my first vacation lot offering for TSZ! The Rose Cottage is oriented towards a romantic getaway or honeymoon - enjoy!
1108. New poll again

Like every early thursday morning, we change the poll at this site. This week's poll is: What's the best in The Sims? Do you like to build houses or areas, furnish them, running or ruining the lifes of sims, or maybe even killing them? Or are you just a downloader and do you spend more time downloading than playing the game? Or maybe you're one of the artists who likes to just make and design extras? Have your say on the right or on
this page. As for last week's poll: most people play 2 or 3 neighbourhoods regularly. 43 of 100 voted that. 33% voted that they play only 1 hood regularly. Strange enough, 4 people said they don't play any hood. However, 8 people are very active and play more than 15 neighbourhoods - or at least they say they do. 6% plays 4 or 5 hoods, while 5 people said they play between 6 and 10 neighbourhoods regularly. We wish everyone fun (not) playing so many neighborhoods, and ask you all to vote again this week on the right or
