    Quote from:  Original First Post
    Simprograms has found The Sims 3: Supernatural listed on Amazon, Italy's Website. It's just a rumour right now but it's quite possibly true due to the accidental leak of the Fantasy styled Patch Items, not to mention E3 which is happening soon.  :)

    Good Lord, MAGIC! Yahooooooo! I love the magic Store items and would really like to see more. Maybe a new skill for the Dynasties? It kinda sucked that Acrobatics, Singing and being a Magician didn't count as skills in Showtime.

    Though I'm still secretly hoping like mad for a Seasons pack, though. I adored Seasons. Maybe seasons will be included in this one? After all, the big secondary thing that came with Seasons for Sims 2 was gardening, but we've had that since the base game.

    Doesn't mean it's true but I also hope it is. Odd how it always seems to be the European Amazon websites which have these leaks? Imagine the secrets someone high up in the Amazon company might know about these releases!  :o

    I can't simply say awesome, but I may say I'm getting it on origin the day it comes out! Makin' Magic from TS1 has been my favourite EP ever.

    Well I never get things on time - still don't have Master Suite never mind Showtime! ::) I'll be lucky if I get those in August! And I'll only get this for Christmas, never before then. So you're not that unlucky, release dates don't matter. ;)

    I'm going to be taking this rumour with a pinch of salt until we get an official confirmation. Then again, I thought the leaked Showtime trailer was fake... :-[

    I just want to ask everyone to remember that this is a rumor.  It hasn't been announced by EA yet, so please don't let this thread get out of control.  Remember I had to shut down the Katy Perry Sweet Treats thread and I don't want that to happen again.

    I'm not so sure the next expansion pack will be a supernatural one with magic added since that expansion pack has been in the previous two games the last expansion pack released. But maybe they decided to switch things up a bit this time around.

    Just to remind everyone this is a leak from Italy so Sept. 7 might be the date for there release but anyone in the US will probably get it sooner provided this is accurate information.
    I have to admit I am quite disappointed. I was really hoping for Seasons! I don't care much for magic so I am not excited at all. I am debating whether I will even get it. Which kills because I like having all the expansions and stuff packs but I am not getting the Sweet Treats one because it doesn't appeal to me and this one as of yet doesn't either. But we shall see as this is a leak and not official!

    Well, I checked Origin (I tend to go digital, except for the KPST which I will be purchasing at Target after work tomorrow), and there's nothing yet. However, I'm quite thrilled on the theme, as well as the rumored added skins and sliders. If that's true, this is exactly why I stopped using CC for such things.

    I'm quite excited for fairy wings to come as well.
