Sorry for the lack of updates last few days, guys. It’s been so hot in here and I barely can sit behind my computer to work all day, because it produces even more warmth and it doesn’t help at all that my room is in the mansard roof and tends to be the hottest in the whole house…
I haven’t really been playing The Sims 3 for the last couple of weeks, perhaps because I was all excited about the new games I’ve just got: Tropico 3 and Tropico 3 Absolute Power (an expansion pack). The game is really great and so much fun, if you like strategies, definitely go check it out. I really like the idea of being a dictator of a banana island, making good and bad or even selfish decisions for my small island. The game makes fun of USA and USSR in the Cold War and I have to say I enjoy it quite a lot since I come from a post-communistic country. Enough said, just make sure you take a look if you don’t know the game at all!
But don’t think I’ve been neglecting my game that much! I’ve been downloading new stuff, organizing my Mods folder and pretty much deleting stuff I had but wasn’t really happy with in the game. It’s quite time-consuming I have to say. Apart from that, I finally received the The Sims 3 Amitions Prima Game Guide and it’s so helpful! I’m slowly digging through it and figuring some stuff before playing as I’ve found out sometimes it works for me much better this way. I don’t have all the time I used to have to try everything at once, so this way I choose the things I want to try the first and then pay attention to other stuff.
Also, I’ve been thinking about doing a small challege for you all. Do you have your room decorated with any Sims-themed objects? Or do you have your collection of the games nicely displayed on your shelves to show them proudly off? I thought it might be fun to see each other’s room with some odds and ends from The Sims. I have recently put a big poster of Sunset Valley on my wall and there’s a Plumbob USB hanging right down from my lamp… and of course, the games are lying around my desk with the guides. So would you be interested in showing your pictures? I though I could post them here at Spring4Sims and turn them into a show case. I just need to know if anyone would be willing to participate.
So yeah, that’s all for now. See you tomorrow (actually today–it’s 0:30 AM already) with new updates! Sim well and drink a lot of water. Oh and those of you in Australia having winter, enjoy it–it’s much better than this heat, trust me!
