Sims 3 Generations Expansion Pack

[pallyndrome]

I just asked a local game store (EB Games) when is the exact release date for Generations in Australia, and they said it hasn't been decided/announced yet. I hope that doesn't mean we get it significantly later than the rest of the world.

I hope it isn't out too much later than the 31st. (I think) It hopefully will be out on like the first or something of June.

@Simstar - I think they added a flashlight type of thing, with which it will be possible to tell various stories. Yes, multiple kids can play in the treehouse together. Those armchairs are quite beautiful too. Maybe it's just one armchair recolored in different types?

This is a new article with detail on teens (Pam - this is the same site you OKed previously, just a different article).

AHH! That article almost made me scream with excitement. Oh, I almost wish I could put off my legacy until I get Generations, but I so can't wait that long.

The main part I read was punishments and that you can destory doll houses!!

Do the chairs with the teeth remind anyone of the film Tremors? And is one of them supposed to be a shark? At first I though it was a dolphin, then I noticed the teeth and the gills!

I am loving the new screenshots though, and I also think bunk beds could be a godsend in smaller houses/rooms.

I had a moment of panic yesterday. I preordered it through Amazon, and it said estimated delivery date was June 2nd!!   I contacted them and told them I wanted it the day it was released. Thankfully they were able to fix it (I had chosen the wrong delivery option) so needless to say, I'm extremely happy now!! Everything I'm reading about it just makes me want it more. I so can't wait til May 31st!! Fez, I actually have a Dynasty going on which I have put on hold in anticipation for it! I will say this, up until now, my Dynasty sims have been working 24/7. That will change when it's released!!

EDIT: I have a few questions that someone can hopefully answer. Will the imaginary friend be available for toddlers who have been born prior to installing it? Also, the memories are a new thing so probably won't be available for sims that are already made right? I'm trying to see how this will affect my Halliwell's. Right now they have 2 toddlers and I want them to be able to have imaginary friends. In the same aspect, I want the Halliwell's to have memories is that even possible?

I read somewhere that the imaginary friend doll may appear in the mail. That was for toddlers created with CAS. Maybe it'll work for already existing toddlers also

[Esther1981]

Oh I hope so Nicky!! That will be so awesome!

I think memories will be for all Sims, both new and old. But for the old ones, memories will begin from the moment the expansion pack is installed. So no memories of Allan and Morty, unfortunately.

[Esther1981]

  Aww that's horrible. But we will always have their memories. I wish I could go back and make them remember. But the funny thing is what if Penny "accidentally" went back to a YA? Haha well, actually she skipped her adulthood so maybe I could make her relive that!

Yep, and what if Allen got "accidentally" resurrected? Great minds think alike!

[Esther1981]

Hmm. Well there is alot of Ambrosia in the food replicators haha, but I don't think Allen will use any. I already have 7 people in the household and Prue needs to be able to get married. When she's YA of course lol. Of course, counting only Immortals I only have 3!  But back on-topic, I really can't wait!! I never had a prom, so I can live it through my sims!!

Prom in real life is overrated, but I'm really excited to see what it's like in Generations! I get the impression that teenagers are going to have more drama in their lives, which is exactly what this game needs. I find it hysterical that one of the punishments for teenagers is being put in a time out! Come on now, who gets put in a time out over the age of 10? I do like that they can be grounded... I think that's something that most teenagers have experienced!
