Please note I'm currently working on the new site. I didn't want to take the site offline though, so you can still visit it. However me working on the site while it's still online means a lot of the pages will appear wonky. But not to worry, it won't take too long. Happy

The Sims 2 Seasons Ships

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

REDWOOD CITY, Calif. (March 1, 2007. 9 a.m. EST) Today Electronic Arts (NASDAQ: ERTS) announced that fans of The Sims™ 2 can experience all-new ways for their Sims to enjoy spring, summer, winter & fall! The Sims™ 2 Seasons, which ships to store shelves today, is available as a PC expansion pack* building on the celebrated The Sims 2 experience that allows players to create and control virtual characters throughout their lives while determining the outcome of their relationships and choosing their destiny. And because each season unfolds differently, players are guaranteed a fresh experience year after year!

Whether your Sims are ice skating on a crisp winter day or jumping into leaf piles during a warm autumn afternoon, the variety of seasonal activities is guaranteed to add a fresh, new layer of fun into your Sims life. Whether your Sims are experiencing winter, spring, summer or fall, the enhanced visual experience and seasonal activities will affect the entire The Sims 2 world! From snowstorms and thundershowers to lightning bolts and more, not only will your Sims neighborhood be affected by these seasonal changes, but so will your Sims, as weather events and changes can impact your Sims relationships, moods, skills, wants and fears. Are your Sims happiest while fishing and playing Marco Polo in the summertime? Beat those wintertime blues by building snowmen, creating snow angels, and more!

In addition to the enhanced visual upgrade such as snow accumulation and new shadow effects, players can test your Sims' green thumb by planting and harvesting fruits and vegetables! Kick a cold with health boosters or meet the woman of your Sims? dreams by blending up magical love potions. Six new careers from gamer to adventurer, await your Sims throughout the year, with each new career path offering the player it?s own unique reward object.

While your Sims are traversing through the various seasons of the year, make sure they're dressed appropriately for unexpected weather that can cause freezing, heat stroke, and sneezing! Prepare them for heavy sunlight, stunning lightening bolts and severe hail storms by dressing them in the season?s trendiest outfits, including ear muffs, summer dresses, raincoats and more!

"The Sims 2 customers will be blown away by the amount of seasonal, outdoor activities that players can engage in all-year long. Whether your Sims are testing their gardening skills in the spring, catching butterflies in the summer, having snowball fights in winter or jumping in to leaf piles in autumn, there's always a new, fun way to stay entertained in The Sims 2 Seasons!" exclaimed Vice President and Studio Head of The Sims Division, Rod Humble. "Plus the new beautifully rendered weather effects have blanketed The Sims 2 environments with a magical new look that rivals any PC experience available today."
