Sims 3: Yes, more pics from the new game, since it's new and shiny.

Here we find Strange enjoying two of her favourite things: eating tomatoes and banging John Stamos Ripp Grunt.

Life is good.

She seriously eats them like that autonomously, which is a little unsettlingly realistic, but maybe because she has about a million of them in her inventory. She has a green thumb.




I wanted to see how the genetics worked, and since Morgana Wolff can't get Strange pregnant, she went with the easy option. And I do mean ~easy~.

Here she is announcing her pregnancy, which is a cute idea for a new interaction. I do enjoy the personalized options for socializing. Sims get options based on what they've been doing. Strange even had options to "gossip about Ripp" and "confess attraction for Ripp" when she was talking to Ophelia. It makes me suspect he's putting the makes on her too (she didn't want to hear about the attraction AT ALL), which wouldn't be much of a surprise.




When Strange went into labour and went to hospital, I was surprised to notice someone bolting in to be there for the delivery. Pretty amusing.




Yep. All in a days work for Ripp's sperm. Must be nice.




And here's little Red Tomato as a kid. Sorry if you wanted to see baby/toddler pics. I don't seem to have bothered to take any (because they're boring and creepy *coughs*).

He's a pretty good blend of both parents. I'm interested to see how that looks as he ages. He's a heavy sleeper, a virtuoso, and a party animal so far.




This is Abram, for comparison. He's just a clone of Ripp, I'm pretty sure. I love that the game recognizes that they're "half brothers." It's pretty specific.




Strange is a chef, by the way. She works at this bistro. What a view, huh?

If there's one thing I completely adore about this game, it's the graphics for the scenery and how far you can see into the distance. There's actually atmospheric perspective. It's beautiful.




Heehee. I invited them all over for a party, and found them outside together.

And what were they looking at?




Yeah, you guessed it. ^_^

I love the little details they randomly produce, like Phi's sexy new guitar. Johnny whips out a laptop every now and then (workaholic, don't you know). Now if they'd only get a job, that'd be awesome. All three are unemployed and story progression don't seem to compel them to change that. Maybe I'll try switching households to mess around with them.

I haven't added any downloads yet besides the awesomemod, because I haven't bothered to look into adding them without using the launcher or whatever. I don't want SecurRom on my computer, so I need to make sure I'm doing it in such a way to avoid that.

Me thinks the environment looks way better than in Sims2, but I still can't get along with the look of the Sims.
I know developers want the toons/characters to look as human/natural/whatever like possible, but the more they try, the more silly the characters look, imo.
