Kleine opmerking: Ik ben op het moment druk aan het werk aan de nieuwe site. Ik wil de site echter niet helemaal offline halen, dus je kunt alles nog gewoon bekijken. Maar de werkzaamheden kunnen er wel voor zorgen dat sommige pagina's er een beetje raar uitzien. Het zal niet heel lang meer duren.

The Sims viert 10e verjaardag!

17 jan 2010 - 02:44

The Sims reeks bestaat in februari 10 jaar, en dat moet gevierd worden! Een aantal fansites waaronder SimTimes en SimFans hebben van EA Duitsland een heleboel leuke renders gekregen, waarmee fansites en fans leuke dingen kunnen maken. Ik wilde de 10e verjaardag van The Sims niet overslaan. Ik heb een heleboel wallpapers gemaakt, in zo'n beetje elke gewenste resolutie!

Verder een kort berichtje dat de frontpage rustig is, maar ik ben niet verdwenen. Ik ben al een tijdje achter de schermen aan het werk aan een nieuwe versie van SimsNetwerk en SimsNetwork. Ik kan er nu nog niets over vertellen, maar hou de website gewoon in de gaten. Als er iets belangrijks staat te gebeuren zal ik daar zeker een bericht over plaatsen op de frontpage!

The Sims honored as one of the 'Best of the Decade'!

6 jan 2010 - 22:10

Wired's Game Life has named The Sims one of the 'Best of the Decade'.

See what they had to say

1. The Sims (2000)

It’s the most popular game franchise that debuted this decade, with more than 100 million copies sold. Yet many people don’t even consider The Sims to be a game at all. Will Wright’s people simulator so completely disrupted our beliefs about what a videogame had to be that non-gamers with no expectations had the easiest time wrapping their heads around it. Sims has had a profound influence on videogames in a dozen different ways. The simplified human models with their carefully calibrated hierarchies of needs were revolutionary. The open-ended, accessible game design was the cornerstone of what came to be known as casual games. It was a sandbox game of unprecedented flexibility, allowing every player to create his own goals and play style. It was a platform for both modular add-on packages and user-created content. It was a highly visible property that was ported to every platform in existence, and is the basis for an upcoming feature film. The Sims, to a greater extent than anything else released this decade, broadened the definition of what a game could be.

TS3 wins Proggy Award from PETA

The Sims 3 Gets PETA Vegetarian-Friendly Award

Animal rights group PETA has awarded Electronic Arts a Proggy Award for 'Most Animal-Friendly Game 2009', thanks to The Sims 3's ability to create a vegetarian lifestyle for your Sims.

According to a PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) statement, the organization's yearly Proggy Awards ("Proggy" is for "progress") "recognize animal-friendly achievements in commerce and culture."

The organization notes that The Sims 3 allows players to create vegetarian Sims, commenting: "In the game, Sims who live a vegetarian lifestyle avoid meat-based dishes and can even become ill if another Sim serves them meat by accident."

PETA also claims: "Rumor has it that game testers have reported that vegetarian Sims live longer and age more slowly than meat-eating Sims. Of course, that would jibe with studies showing that real-life vegans and vegetarians are less prone to obesity, heart disease, diabetes, and other life-threatening conditions."

Other 2009 Proggy winners include an all-vegan shopping center in Portland, Ore., a San Francisco fitness center that provides a doggie day-care program for its clients' dogs, and a vegetarian day-care center in Savannah, Ga.

"Electronic Arts Inc. knows that compassion is strength," says PETA Executive Vice President Tracy Reiman. "And by portraying vegetarians in a positive way, other players might be encouraged to give animals a break and stop eating them."
