Back to school...or university anyways!

After that leak on their Seasons broadcast where the mascot and people in togas ran across the stage they have FINALLY slipped enough for some pictures to be grabbed! I'm so thrilled! The whole college thing was my 2nd favorite part of The Sims 2, and at long last The Sims 3 will have colleges too!

That's right, University Life is official! Campuses and mascots and fraternities are all back, and I for one am a very happy Simmer. The news is out now, and hopefully the trailer for University Life will be released soon. Until then, check out SimsVIP for all the pictures and the latest news on the latest EP leak.

Now I just get to cross my fingers and pray that I can get my new laptop before it comes out! Not having Seasons is already killing me, if I'm missing Seasons and University Life I think I'll go crazy!

Another new EP idea already out there?

So we all got super-excited for Supernatural right? And then even more excited when only a few weeks later Seasons was also announced. Seems like EA's really starting to pick up the pace with EP production. Well they may already have their next idea! I just stumbled onto this and I gotta say, it sounds pretty dang cool!

It reminds me of those old Sims 2 games, the Stories. Castaway Stories to be exact. Plus merSims! I guess with the oceans and rivers opening up, it would be a good time to try out a new species of Sim. This also sounds like they're incorporating an Open for Business type of thing, what with running your own businesses and hotels.

The visiting tourist idea has me fascinated as well. Sims from the World Adventures EP already wander around your towns occasionally, so I guess this would be an expansion of that idea. My guess is they're your guests and they drag in more Simoleans to sustain your lovely new businesses.

All around I'd love an EP like this. A combination of old and new in a new kind of gameplay...I'd buy it!
