oh.. and there are some sites posted there that wants support for the removal of securom.

they also have a debate there.

wow! thanks for the info.

by the way, I'd like to tell you guys some information that i heard from my friends and acquaintances [fellow The Sims 2 players]::

1) It is possible that EA is hiding a surprise on The Sims 3 (something they didn't announce. my friend said that the graphics could actually be similar to the movie "Beowulf" -the one Angelina Jolie starred in.) and that their promotional photos are actually the "BETA" version.

2) Custom Content makers (Homecrafter Plus and Bodyshop) is gonna be a lot more advanced yet user-friendly.

---->>> they can be merged into one program
---->>> you can make your own meshes there.

3) It can run in Windows Vista (duh.)

4) when sims are growing up, there are no more twirl around-jump high-squat with magical effects. they just simply grow.

4) University, Nightlife, Open for Business and Seasons could be built-in. something like "Hot Date" being built-in to the Sims 2. - you know, the neighborhood now has community lots, unlike the sims 1, which was only residential lots.

5) players are gonna need some kick-ass expensive hardware for best gameplay. (but this may not be true because one of EA's purposes of making the Sims 3 was for better game experience for those slow computers - since the loading screens are eliminated and that you could visit your neighbors on your own, and make your sims walk across the neighborhood - which is super awesome.)

6) eating food is more realistic, you know, they have water or any type of drink they want with their meal.

7) the sims are no longer blocky and are more rounded. their actions are more realistic and they can decipher what they need to do and what they want to do and what they should do.

health is more necessary. they could get cancer and stuff. (still a rumor, though)

9) Piracy will be completely fought. I have a friend who bought a pirated one as a back-up installer (since its much cheaper) and the game has some defects. He said the wallpaper does not show well. it's all red, like how objects are when you can't put them there.

10) no more tiles when building a home. you can do it however you want.


that's all the rumors and possible facts that i have gathered. hope some are real and some are false. but hey, not everything is perfect.


**hopefully they'd edit that ridiculous cubic three on the sims 3... it's not as good-looking as the sims 2.
