Thanks, Marian! I had been about to smack myself for not getting up at midnight to download it, but since it's not out yet, I'm glad I got my sleep

I can't wait it to be released. To make this waiting even worse is that today (Decwember 6th) is Indepence Day so no work to get day go faster. I would have had whole day to play Monte Vista but it's not out yet (it's 3 pm already). Maybe I get it on weekend then (it probably will be released so late that I would not have time to play since I have early morning tomorrow).

Darn, no work!

Then again I'm happy that I don't live in Australia or in those timezones... Just think all the talk about Monte being released on Dec 6th and you wait and wait and wait... until Dec 7th (I really feel sorry for those people from the wrong information that has been given).

Wondering if I should spend sometime watching Independence DAy ball that starts soon (it's all the politicians and some famous people celebrating at our president's "castle", but then again I can see most of the dresses tomorrow's papers anyway... At least snowing has stopped now.

1.5 hours left waiting...

The UK Price on sale is £12.80 instead of £16. 

Edit: This is just the standard version. The one with the 1900 SimPoints is £22.

My Mum was promising me £6 worth of points but I just pressed my £6.80 into her hand and said 2 words "Monte Vista" and brought my laptop to her with the store screen loaded and every detail filled in other than billing info. Dramatic or what?

Since there's a Monte Vista themed venue out as well, should it be posted about in this thread or have its own separate one?

Since it's not included with Monte Vista it might be best to make a new thread for it since it's separate. It's a tough one though seeing as it's themed for Monte Vista.

Cant wait to download it, and I think I will be putting screen shots of the gameplay on my blog (officiallysociallyawkwar.tumblr.com)

Since Monte Vista is now out I'll move the thread to the towns and townies board.

First few screenies! 



Up from above



Town centre (sorry about the quality!)



Gino Ferrari - rich, good looking, high cooking and gardening skills and great traits. He just screams "Dynasty Spouse"



The City Hall. Perhaps one of the most magnificent (Moonlight Falls' is pretty good!)



On the left is the police station and on the right is theatre



Gino using the pizza oven. In that picture he's making a Breakfast Calzone. Yummy!

[TheTripWasInfraGreen]

It looks like Gino has rather thin lips too. He's definitely dynasty material!

The town square looks a little more sparse than I imagined it to be, and the countryside even more so, but it's still quite nice looking.

[Turoskel]

I don't suppose he actually owns a ferrari too?

I'm trying to decide what to do at the moment, I really would love this world but can't decide if I want the venue as well or not, it's appealing but it doesn't give the venue lot size and if I did buy it i'd like to be able to use it in other worlds too but if it's 64x64 then I doubt i'd bother.

Wonder how long it takes to get about, the houses look very spaced out.

Well, I have to wait till next week, everything is out till then for me. This town looks lovely. I can't wait.
