Spring4Sims – The Best Finds, Downloads & Hints for Your Sims

Finally a nice parody! Do you like it?

Also, Generations is coming out today. Are you going to get it? I’ll be buying it soon, it’s coming out June 3rd in the UK. Yay!

I’m getting very excited for this expansion pack!

So it seems there will be no Prima Game Guide for The Sims 3 Generations. How is that even possible? I’m a little sad. I used to buy them, read them and then play the game, because it made a lot of things much more simple for me. Well, at least I can buy the guide for World Adventures which I still dont’ have…

Oh, and here are some pictures of the new objects just in case you haven’t seen them.

The Airborne Toxic Event – Changing
All Time Low – Time Bomb
Black Cards – Dominoes
Everyway – Circa Survive
He Is We – Happily Ever After
Parachute – Kiss me slowy
Stevie Q – Cow Bay
Stevie Q – Wonder Why

I have a confession to make: I know none of these bands. Should I feel ashamed?

I think I was wrong when I said Outdoor Living Stuff had the prettiest loading screen. This is so much better! What do you think?

The big surprise that EA Games has been creating so much buzz  about *ahem* was the new expansion pack of which we’ve been pretty much avare for a couple of weeks. Yeah yeah, it’s going to be The Sims 3 Generations. Nothing new. But the new pictures and video reveal a few exciting things to look forward to.

The whole expansion pack is about big moments in the life of our Sims. Marriage, graduating from university, having kids, grandchildren etc. It might sound a little dull and I think I wasn’t that excited when I first heard of this EP, but there seem to be many new interactions and objects that will make the game much more interesting. For instance the baby stroller, bunkbeds and spiral stairs (which have been so demanded!).

I’ve also noticed one major thing: while Generations will be a whole new addition to Sims, it has two “hidden” EPs (or in fact on EP and one SP) which we’ve already seen in The Sims 2. You’ve guessed it right: University and Family Fun Stuff. I know many people are going to rant about that, but I don’t mind about old stuff coming back. I wasn’t a big fan of University, but those objects in Family Fun Stuff were pretty cute (like the princess clothes for girls and dragon clothes for boys).

Overally, I think I’ll be happy to have this EP. It hits the shelves May 31st. Stay tuned for more info.

Okay, we have some serious “rumors” here. Well, we can’t really call this a rumor, but nothing is official either.

There’s a new trailer for The Sims 3 Generations EP, which is scheduled for “2011″. Then there’s also a very exciting new trailer for The Sims 3 Unleased. Yes, you’ve guessed it right: we’re going to have pets! And it seems like not only dogs and cats, but also skunks, deers and horses! The Unleashed EP is scheduled for October 2011 according to the video. I’m crossing my fingers for Unleashed so much!

I think Generations will come out this spring or early summer. Also, I have say I’m not very excited about Generations yet. I hope more footage will change my mind.

From Infinite Sims:

The Sims 3 Generations has officially been confirmed, as ESRB has posted its official game rating of T for Teen. This rating would not have been posted on the site, if EA has not submitted the game for review. This not only means that the game is under development, but that the games development is now complete as ESRB only reviews and assess games that have had their development completed.

And here’s the proof: http://www.esrb.org/ratings/search.jsp Thanks, Jay!

Now the question is: what is this going to be all about? Because frankly I have no idea…
