Sims 2 Delivers Hot Teen Action

And so the endless parade of Sims 2 expansion packs marches relentlessly on until no facet of human life isn't idealistically represented in Sim form. Coming in November, The Sims 2 Teen Style Stuff seeks to distill teenagers down to their bare essence, grouping them into three easily recognizable subgroups. There is the Socialite group, which allows you to deck out your Sim princess with designer clothes and furniture befitting a spoiled brat. The Thrasher archetype is all about the extreme sports lifestyle, with skateboard and surfboard accessories to set off their khaki cargo shorts. Poser. Finally we have the Goths, with dark and gloomy accessories and plenty of buckles, belts, and fishnets. Wait, that's it? Where are the geeks? The jocks? No emo? I mean come on, emo is just goth with whinier music and brighter clothing. I guess we'll just have to use our imaginations. *sighs* The world hates us.

Latest by mcderek3000: It seems like you're playing a parody of a stereotype of a clique. I always thought that teenagers had their own thoughts and lives that didn't go into the 3 categories and push them into buying clothes and decorations that suit more »

SingStar Brings Out Goth's Inner Village Person... Kills Him

SingStar is HUGE in Germany, like, Hasselhoff huge. Rock Band, Guitar Hero III? People show up, they play with the games, but SingStar draws crowds and, occasionally, a Goth who just wants to smile. Watch as this young man, whose life, I can only imagine, has been dedicated to stern looks and not smiling, finally breaks down and jams to a little YMCA... only to be caught on video. You can almost see his inner child dying at the end there when the smile freezes on his face.

World of Darkness MMO In 2011?

We haven't heard much about the proposed Worlds of Darkness MMO that was first announced last year when Eve Online developer CCP and White Wolf Publishing merged. Judging from the information the folks at Eurogamer pried out of CCP marketing director Magnus Begsson, we won't be hearing much for awhile, much to the chagrin of Nosferatadors (pretty ugly) around the world.
Speaking of a release date, Bergsson said, "We don't know yet. We're not really hiding any information about it, we just don't know yet. The actual design and exactly how it's going to be is being created right now, so when we actually know all of that we can guestimate how long it's going to take. These games typically take four to five years to make. I don't think this is going to be any different."

Judging from that, the earliest we'll see the game released is 2011, placing it squarely after the robot holocaust of 2009, which itself presents a problem. More »

Depeche Mode's Simlish Music Video

Faux goth rockers Depeche Mode are lending their tune "Suffer Well" to the Sims 2, complete with a Simlish translation. Series creator Will Wright created the in-game language by combining Ukrainian and the Filipino language of Tagalog. The song's machinima-style music vid is available on EA's official site and tells the story of a forsaken robot. If DM is taking requests, how about a Simlish version of "Everything Counts" or better yet, "Somebody"? More »
