Speaking of destruction, the beginning reminded me of Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy and I was half-expecting the house to be bulldozed at any moment.

“Just imagine if you had lived your whole life inside your house.” Yeah, thanks EA. I do get out occasionally, FYI.

I don’t. This came as a revelation!

“That pan-out of the town reminds me of Pine Valley in World in Conflict…”

exactly. Run the whole trailer as is, then suddenly a nuke flash, shock wave, and fire storm sweeping up town as art style changes to World In Conflict II with amphib tanks rolling up from the sea.

I would pay to see that. I wouldn’t pay to play Sims.

I’ll probably pick this up, as every so often I indulge in a bit of Sims 2, if nothing more than to build the odd minimalist mansion for my Sims to debauch themselves in. However I can’t say the Sims shown here actually look that much better than in Sims 2 in terms of their features etc tbh. I’m kind of hankering for character creation as versatile as that shown in APB in a recent feature:-

That’s the sort of toolset Sims 3 should be shipping with…

That would be cool, integration with Spore for the win.

The Spirms! Wait…

michael: I think highlighting the removal of loading screens was the point of that trailer.

I look forward to The Sims: Colonies.
The sims set on colonies on the moon.
