Some Great News and Some Disappointing News

Usually… I would start with the bad news and then go on to the good news, however, due to relevancy to this blog, I am left doing it the other way around.

As some of you may know, I am a fan of  The Sims franchise. Of course, the release of the much anticipated “The Sims 3” was supposed to be at the end of this month, but unfortunately there has been a rather significant delay of around 4 months as you can see from this post on their official site:

EA ANNOUNCES NEW SHIP DATE FOR THE SIMS 3

Highly-Anticipated PC Game from Best-selling PC Franchise Slated to Ship
June 2, 2009

REDWOOD CITY, Calif., February 3, 2009 – Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ: ERTS) today announced that The Sims™ 3, the highly-anticipated flagship game from the best-selling PC franchise, The Sims will launch across the PC, Mac, iPhone, iPod Touch and mobile devices summer 2009. The Sims 3 PC will ship to store shelves worldwide starting June 2, 2009.

“The Sims 3 is an incredible game that lets you play with life, create art and show off your creations,” said Ben Bell, Executive Producer, The Sims 3. “In the game, players are inspired by endless creative possibilities like the new Traits and Lifetime Wish features which allow players to create Sims with real personalities and destinies. Players can then take their Sim into town to interact with other Sims in the game and capture the action on video to show off online.”

“The June launch combined with the break-through game the team is building gives us the perfect runway to create awareness for The Sims 3,” said Russell Arons, Vice President of Marketing for EA. “The Sims 3 will be the original IP summer blockbuster of 2009 as we build off the success of the best-selling PC franchise of all time to create awareness with both loyal Sims fans and new players.”

I am rather saddened by this, as I was looking forward to it, however, the one positive is that I will be able to dedicate my time to the Australian release of Eternal Sonata on PS3 out on the 19th of February. It was also funny has the Australian release of Disgaea 3 is around the same time, however did not affect me as I already own the American version! (I got sick and tired of terrible release dates over here). I am hoping the DLC in the Australian store can be used for my version of Disgaea 3… I am interested in the new Raspberyl retelling of the game, released in Japan a few days ago I believe.

Back to The Sims 3, I did feel from the previews that they had completed most of the game…. however this was not the case apparently.
