611. Extra Updated: Sims 2 Bugs, Features, Solutions...
Written on Monday 2 May 2005 at 00:32 by Neil - 0 comments.

Just added: A ridiculously big batch of new observations from visitors to the alt.games.the-sims newsgroup. A lot happens in six months on that newsgroup, available on Google and all good news servers.

Read about newly discovered "bugs" in Sims 2, including the one that suggest Toddlers are a product of reincarnation, the fires that burn sims in other rooms and what do diagonal doors have to do with it all anyway?

Meanwhile, have you ever wondered how fast a Sim actually walks? A usenet poster has worked it out. Also added today: The headmaster who eats everything in sight, three way conversations on the telephone and further proof that all nannies in SimVille are drunks.

612. Cat's Eyes #4
Written on Sunday 1 May 2005 at 23:00 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

Arnie has been terminated. Over three weeks are over when it comes to Sim Brother 4, and last week there's been painting and partying. And possibly due to the stress, somebody went a little crazy. It's never a boring week at Sim Brother, which leaves enough to discuss during another edition of Cat's Eyes - looking at Sim Brother differently. Number 4 is now up to be read by you, and everybody else.

614. Belated Simday
Written on Saturday 30 April 2005 at 22:27 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.
A slightly late report about last Thursday, as usual Simday on the official site. Maxis has improved their site a little bit again, by improving the search possibilities for lots. You can search on lots whether they have Custom Content, on Lot Size, Number of Floors, and Lot Value now, giving you a bigger chance of getting what you want. Other than that, there are some links we mentioned earlier, namely the GameSpot articles about The Sims 2 on console and mobile phones. New is also the intro, which now promoted the recently launched movie contest.

As for the Sims 2 on consoles, handhelds and mobile phones, Maxis has posted new information pages. There are pages for all platforms the game will be out on later this year: Playstation 2, XBox, GameCube, GBA, DS, PSP and Phones. There is just one bit of information from these pages so far, which is about the GBA version:
"Between episodes participate in all new unique mini-games such as car and soda commercials. How well you do helps determine how good your ratings are."
Other than that, the following small artworks were posted:

618. GameSpot on TS2 Mobile
Written on Thursday 28 April 2005 at 15:12 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.
After the announcement games site GameSpot has had a first look at the Sims 2 on mobiles. It mentions some features, like the SimQ, a meter which shows how well you are doing in the game. You have to complete mini-goals to improve your SimQ. The game will be mobile-oriented, allowing short sessions of 3-5 minutes, rather than having to take hours to accomplish something. It will feature a complete Create-A-Sim mode, and it even allows you to import a character from the PC version by uploading a Sim to a special WAP site. Copying Sims over through SMS is another possibility, but you'll also be able to just get into your phone's phonebook at any time in the game, and send your friends short messages. Of course there is also some decoration to be done. The game will be released in three versions, a 64Kb one for lightweight phones, and two heavier 128Kb and 178Kb versions. The latter will feature a bigger and richer world. For more information see the preview. The two screenshots below are new as well (do click the thumbnails to see slightly larger versions in this case).
