Once again those guys (and gals-im not sexist) at eletronic arts have made another expansion pack to suck even more cash out of us. Dont get me wrong, The Sims is a great game and I like the expansions. However, I dont see why they charge an extra 20 quid for a couple more jobs and some furniture. I ,and most of my friends, think they should start puting their time, energy and cash into creating bigger and better ( not to mension newer) games instead of something that is getting even more boring by the minute.

I hope you post some things reguarding this, i'd appreciate it.

hmm.. Maybe they should make a Expasion so it makes people say "wow, Gotto get that game" instead of just Expanding the game futher. The thing that made nearly get it was The Sims: Online. I have no idea where that went but they should make a LAN Opition or something.

I know, Simsville got cancelled because the developers thought that hardcore fans wouldn't like to many changes to the main idea itself. I think they should have went with it and see how it went.

Why cancel Simville EA, that looked far better than the tripe they keep shovel feeding people who like the sims. I need more things to do in this game to hold my interest, it's just too damn boring, I doubt this new add-on will come with any new features to solve this problem, probably just adding something new which will again ware off in a couple of weeks. Meh, not interestd anymore.

These are my thoughts exactly. Just when EA start to create a game that looks really rather good, they cancel it. Instead they choose to cater for the people who will buy any packs witht he sims logo on it, no matter how poor these add-ons actually are. I saw one of them at my cousins house-'House Party' I think it was called. Basically included new costumes and furniture, which it turns out you can download off the net anyway.

this is probably going to sound stupid but how do you get 2 sims to marry?

Sorry, haven't got a clue how you get two sims hitched, I don't play it long enough to find out. So that new sims pack will be out within the week, crap, my sister wants to buy like she bought the last 2 add-on packs, which means she'll be on the PC for ages. I'll try and convince her to go for Rollercoaster Tycoon 2 instead, now that is an addictive management game.

You interract long enough with kises/compliments/back rubs etc until their rating of you gets high, then you get "propose" as an option.

Then you keep getting offered kids.
Say yes, then build a big glass room and leave them in there with no food or toilets.
