SimDay: Interview and Article
It's Thursday and it's SimDay. This SimDay Maxis have not really done anything for us. It's also been a quiet week in the community. For SimDay, Maxis have given us links to an interview by Computer And Video Games.com, and an article at GameSpot; both on The Sims 2.

The Computer And Video Games.com interview, with Destry Davison (Associate Producer of The Sims 2), contains very little we haven't heard many times in many other places. It tells us again about the "Life Score" and DNA. One subject it does touch on that I have heard very little about is the subject of sex. On this subject Davidson says:
"We have to pass the ratings board because we have such a wide audience. So we can't get too steamy. Under the covers, tastefully done, that kind of thing."

Unfortunately the article at GameSpot, although an interesting read, it does overlap somewhat with the interview, and many other articles that are floating around. It does however give us this little piece of information, which I certainly did not know about:
"The face designing tool will let you design two prospective parents and then actually see how their children might look."
