Really EA??!!!
POSTED ON

So EA thought, hmmm people want to be able send messages to each other, some awesome guy figured out how, now lets shut it down!
I swear EA sometimes has no head. They are probably gonna bring it back, and ask us to pay a monthly fee to use it. That is so EA.
I\'ll only be appeased if they make it easy to use, like actual buttons to push instead of hidden links, and it\'s free. Otherwise I may just have a rage fit at EA for being completely stupid and greedy. Why bother having these \"friends\" if I can\'t even talk to them.

Not about the sims
POSTED ON

Ok so I normally post only about the sims, but I felt this was a good place to mention a movie I recently saw.
I had tickets months ago to go see a private preview of a movie no one had heard of before. I wasn\'t able to go, but added the movie to the netflix list.
After being on the wait list for a month to get the movie, I watched it over the weekend. It\'s a movie everyone needs to watch once. It\'s appropriate for children, teens, adults. There is no swearing, disturbing violence, or anything un-viewable for younger children. This movie should be watched by children with a parent though. So what\'s this amazing new movie?
The boy in the Stripped Pajamas. http://www.boyinthestripedpajamas.com/#/home
It\'s a movie about an 8 year old boy who meets a strange boy who always wears pajamas. I\'ll let you watch the rest for yourself. It\'s a touching movie that will leave you wondering why you didn\'t hear of this movie when it was out in theaters. It is based on a book if your wondering.

Why can't toddlers talk to each other?
POSTED ON

Ok so I knew that Sims 3 wouldn\'t be the Sims 2. I knew we wouldn\'t have all the same things we did in the Sims 2 with all it\'s expansion packs. But really EA, why would you take simple person to person interaction between toddlers away? Would it be that hard to program? I had my unexpected twins, and they couldn\'t socialize with each other. They could only talk to their mom, or their stuffed bear Geffory to help when their socialization got low. I mean really they should be able to hug, or play together on the same toy, or something!
Twins on my first sims 3 birth

So they said in the Sims 3 there would be more multiple births. I guess they weren\'t joking. My sim had a one night stand with her boyfriend, and out came twins. She didn\'t have the multiple birth reward, she didn\'t even have the family sim trait. There is a picture in my Studio of these twin girls in their cribs.
I miss the guest book
POSTED ON

So I just have to say, I really miss the guest book from sims 2. There is no way to communicate with people on the sims 3 website. I can\'t compliment someone\'s work, ask a question, or just say hi. Why is it that they got rid of the guest book and gave us no way to talk to each other except in the forum?
Put the guest book back!
