Dude that's awesome.

And hell yeah, interior decorating here I come xD

Do you know if a sim can kill another sim? :3

 

[Rene]

woot, im gonna get this game for sure
i only played the last ones for building houses & decorating actually
i didn't like the whole "life" part of it ..

 

[SamXX]

Yeah, the life aspect wasn't great because you couldn't get them to do much because they always had needs, but now with less needs and the ability to take care of them selves, it should make it much more playable.

Found the video where he said the Ghosts are playable.

 

[fitzy]

Awesome Trikki

This game'll be awesome.

 

[Ciaran]

A good bit of that stuff is wrong Tyrai

 

[Tyrai]

A good bit of that stuff is wrong Tyrai

Proof please? -.-

 

[Ciaran]

A good bit of that stuff is wrong Tyrai

Proof please? -.-

Well, here's an example

The Sims will now have only four needs: 1. Entertainment 2. Bathroom 3. Sleep 4. Eating/Food

Sims have six needs, all the same ones as sims 2, barr comfort and environment.

Snootysims, wikipedia, or some interviews and the sims wiki have all said it, annd you can see it in some youtube vids of the pirated versions.

Im not gonna correct the whole thing.

 

[Tyrai]

Oh well, thats a shame. I got something wrong, you cant expect everyone to get everything right.

I'm not sure if you should even be discussing the pirated version.

But so what? He made one mistake, maybe others, but he gave a lot of info, and a lot is true.
I'm getting so excited for this game now!
Less than 2 weeks!

 

[beehdaubs]

Game comes out next Tuesday (amirite?)
Can't wait. I saw a little more about this game, and it looks very interesting! Just to make sure, I don't need any past Sims games installed on my comp in order to play this one, right?

 

[x-Hannah-x]

i think im gunna get it

 

[airhead]

I think you need to uninstall all the past sims games to get this one to work, cos thats what i was told when i got the sims 2. (that it wouldnt work if 1 was installed)

 

[Kanye Omari West]

Unless there's a trial version, I'm not buying >:C

 

[Jas0n]

It's so close to the release date now

Jas0n goes insane.
Jas0n hates all you north americans for getting it 2-3 days earlier than me >:
