Written on Friday 15 July 2005 at 03:34 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

EA is holding its Hot Summer Night event again. Press gets invited to the EA Headquarters to check out the latest games, and the progress made since the E3 back in May. Of course that also means there are a lot of screenshots to get. There are quite a few of the Sims 2 on all platforms (except PC and Mac, where the game is already released). Most of the ones below come directly from EA, except for the first Console shot, the first three PSP shots and the first six Mobile Phone shots - those come from the official German site - and the final three for the mobile phone, which come from WorthPlaying (but also from the Hot Summer Night event). If you click read more (or scroll down a bit), you'll see thumbnails of all these screenshots released the past two days, by clicking those thumbnails you'll see the full size screenshots.

55. New Poll

Written on Thursday 23 June 2005 at 02:09 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

We've added a new poll again, as we do every week. As Nightlife gives Sims their own cars, we're wondering if that's also the favourite type of transportation for your Sims, or if they prefer something else. Vote on the right or the latest poll page. As for the place where you prefer the Sims 2, which we asked about last week, almost 74% said the PC is the place where it should be. It's followed by the Mac with merely 9% of the votes. 12 of the 316 votes (almost 4%) went to the Playstation2, after which the XBox and the "It's not everywhere" answers were tied at 3%. The GameCube got one vote less (still about 3%), and the mobile phone another vote less (closer to 2%). Finally we have the GBA (1%), PSP (1%) and the DS (1% too). To get the results with a little more detail, simply head to its results page.

56. E3: Tim LeTourneau, Virginia McArthur and Scot Amos at IGN/GameSpy LiveWire

Written on Friday 20 May 2005 at 02:32 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

After visiting GameSpot, Tim LeTourneau went to IGN/GameSpy LiveWire, together with Scot Amos and Virginia McArthur. Unlike previous years, Will Wright didn't join LiveWire, as he's probably busy showing off Spore. Scot Amos is the Senior Producer for the consoles, Tim does the same but for Nightlife, and Virginia is a producer for the Sims 2 on handhelds. She already showed the handheld versions for GameSpot earlier. A summary of the show is in the rest of this item. It's unsure if or when a video or audio file will be uploaded with this interview, but we'll keep you updated with that as usual. Read More!

57. E3: IGN Hands-on The Sims 2 PSP

Written on Thursday 19 May 2005 at 09:31 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

Over the few hours that I slept, a few articles were posted. One of them is at IGN PSP, which has had a hands-on of the Sims 2 on PlayStation Portable. As with other handheld games, the PSP version is set in Strangetown, unveiling some of its mysteries. There are several classic elements of the game, like build/buy mode, but different from the PC version is the direct control feature. As with the GBA version there is a Sanity meter, which streamlines the daily business of your Sim, as well as the story.

In the game, every NPC will have a secret to tell. By interacting with them you'll eventually unlock a social mini-game, in which you have to respond to the body language correctly. This was currently done using a simple system, in which you have to push the button the Sim is leaning in. The game can in the end become quite complex, and it might be harder to play the social game. In the end you'll be busy for a while spending time to reveal the 100 mysteries. As with all other handheld and console versions, you can go online to trade items, but there's no head-to-head gameplay. Technically the PSP version still had some glitches when it comes to framerate, but it's a detailed game. You can read the preview if you want some more precise details.

58. E3: Sims 2 Live Stage Demo

Written on Thursday 19 May 2005 at 04:03 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

Two people of Maxis have visited GameSpot at the E3 to talk about the Sims 2 on consoles. A video where GameSpot talks to Virigina McArthur, producer for the Sims 2 Handheld, has been posted to be streamed for free. The video shows the first moving images of The Sims 2 on DS, GBA, phones and PlayStation 2, all in about 18 minutes. For the handhelds the quality isn't too great, as a camera watches over the shoulder of Virginia as she plays, but for the PS2 version the game is shown quite well. Read on for the details from the video. Read More!

59. The Sims 2 (Console, PSP, GBA) Screenshots

Written on Wednesday 18 May 2005 at 20:47 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

EA has released several screenshots for the Sims 2 on consoles and handhelds. Two of them, one for the PSP and one for the GBA, are new. Four others were posted by GameSpy last night. However, EA has given some slightly bigger versions. Also remarkable are the original filenames of those screenshots. On the UK press site, the files are named like "Sims2_-_CurGen_-_E3_-_Image_1.jpg". Mainly the CurGen part would suggest the game will also be released on Next Generation consoles like the XBox 360, PlayStation 3 and Nintendo Revolution. Of course this is just a vague rumour and absolutely not confirmed, but we'll keep you updated if it's true or not. You can click the thumbnails below to see all the larger screenshots.

60. E3: GameSpy about TS2 on GBA and DS

Written on Wednesday 18 May 2005 at 19:26 by ChEeTaH - 0 comments.

GameSpy is, as well as many other games sites, magazines, developers, publishers and others attending the E3. They've posted some information and screenshots of The Sims 2 on GBA and DS. About the DS version they say that the CAS screen is very detailed, and that the game is all about customization. The downside is that the connectivity between two DSes is limited to sharing content - there's no head-to-head gameplay. About the GBA version it's said the game focuses more on goals than previous Sims games for the same platform. As with the DS version, there will not be any head-to-head gameplay either, but sharing is possible through the GBA-GBA connectivity. The screenshot below is also of the GBA version, and was included in the article. You can find out more at the DS Preview or GBA preview.
