2141. January Donation Files
Written on Friday 3 January 2003 at 01:32 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.
The first part of the donation files for January 2003 have been added. There are 9 new files from Sumit and Jen. You are only able to download those if you donate money to The Sims Zone. Also remember our special offer which only goes until the end of this month:

Donate now, and receive the files of this month and those of December 2002 without extra fee!

So donate and get those great files! You won't help just The Sims Zone with it (although we really need the money!), but also the RGA! Those who donated last month should've gotten an e-mail with the new username and password for these files already.
 

2142. The Sims on GameCube and X-Box
Written on Thursday 2 January 2003 at 21:52 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.
Rumours are going that The Sims will be seen on Nintendo's GameCube and Microsoft's X-Box. You can see so by checking out this page at ESRB, the US games rating board. There's a 'The Sims' in the list of titles, which is for the PlayStation 2 (that version will be released within 2 weeks), the GameCube and the X-Box. Also, a slightly older news post at GamerWeb says that "EA's Jeff Brown hinted that we could see The Sims on Xbox, saying, 'I can't say specifically what they are, but one would infer that Madden and some of the big hits on the sports side will certainly be in the early lineup. And we're looking at Bond, Potter, and The Sims as well.'". These console versions will probably be quite like the PS2 version: 3D and a storyline. Keep an eye on TheSimsConsole.com for possible more information in the future. We'll keep you updated here too.
 

2143. 1,000,000 visitors!!
Written on Thursday 2 January 2003 at 20:11 by ChEeTaH - 3 comments.
The Sims Zone now exists for more than a year. We've been counting our visitors since 2 February 2002, and had a few milestones since. A mention at the frontpage of the official site gave us a lot of visitors in April. Not long after that, in June, we reached our 500,000 visitors milestone, and now we're starting the year the right way with having reached 1,000,000 unique visitors within one year time. We are proud of that, and of course we couldn't have done it without you. We're now going for the multi-millions, and to do that we will keep providing you with what you've seen here so far. We have a few things which are in development stages at this moment, which you will see here sooner or later this year. Stay tuned to this channel for all that...
 

2144. PC Zone The Sims Feature
Written on Wednesday 1 January 2003 at 22:02 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.
PC Zone UK has written a 3-page feature about The Sims. The feature starts with the initial plans, which were to cancel the game. They also talk about the joy they had during the development, they laughed a lot. For instance when pets started doing 'human' actions like making dinner - floating in the air. The story continues with the history of the expansion packs which were released so far (and another one might be coming up), and the difference in the reviews written in the US and the UK. To read the whole feature, or see its screenshots, go here. You have to register (for free) at PC Zone to read the article.
 

2145. Unleashed (Mac) Released
Written on Wednesday 1 January 2003 at 11:40 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.
A few days ago, just before the end of last year, Aspyr has released the Unleashed expansion pack for the Macintosh. For reviews of the game, please check out our review index. Our own review is still to come very soon, it's been delayed because Andy was busy with Sim Brother and a lot of other things since the game has been released. You will hear about that soon enough..The Macintosh system specifications are:
  • MacOS 9.2.2 or Mac OS X version 10.1 or later
  • G3 processor at 233 MHz or faster (450 MHz recommended)
  • 192 MB of built-in RAM (additional 128M recommended if running OSX)
  • 2 MB VRAM (8 MB recommended)
  • 750 MB of additional hard drive space
  • Quicktime 4.1.2 or later

    More information is available here at Aspyr.

    The Sims Zone wants to wish everybody a happy new year. Be careful with fireworks, and again, don't forget your Sims. We'll see you again in 2003, with more news, files, other unique things and much, much more. Make sure you come back here the next year though!

    Note: Because of Christmas and New Year, the new donation files will be uploaded a bit later than planned. Expect those files soon though, just not 1 January. We apologise for that, but hope it won't stop you from donating. If you donate now, you will get both the files for January and December without any extra fee!

    From the whole team of The Sims Zone, I want to wish everybody a merry christmas. We hope you will have a nice time. Don't forget your Sims though, they want to celebrate it too. Sumit posted some objects this year, but why not check out some of last year's christmas files? Look at BettyJoe's Christmas packs. Updating at The Sims Zone will continue, although it will be a bit less than usual. Happy holidays!

    *Note* The pictures look a bit bad since they only come in such limited quality, so if they look ugly in the picture always remember they look great in the game.

    If you want to participate in an interview with Gamer.tv then you can be lucky.

Don't contact us if you're interested, but please drop Lee Smith a line.
