New Expansion Pack Announced! Ambitions!

[MomOfMany]

Sounds cool and it sounds like we will be getting a new neighborhood since there is a local junkyard and salon which we currently don't have just a spa?

[Pam]

Yes, I believe there will be a new neighborhood with Ambitions.  I don't recall the name of it at the moment, however.

Great information, Leto.  Thanks for sharing it!

I had a feeling that the time machine would be more like what you mentioned, I couldn't see how the current game mechanics would work with something more elaborate. 

The Architect sounds really challenging, in a good way.

Twinbrook is the name of the new town in Ambitions, was just reading more about it, sounds good to me.

[Pam]

Thanks, Salty.  I'm pretty excited about having a new town.  Sunset Valley and Riverview are so familiar now and it will be great fun to have a whole new place to explore.

GHOSTBUSTERS!
I'm definitely keeping a zoo of ghosts! To have it any other way must be illegal!

Cool! Please upload some pics about it when you finished.
Or no, while you are building. It will be really fun to follow.

snooty posted links to some English reports on ambitions. I find the one below to be most interesting. It mentions making tunnels in the neighbourhood - even breaking prisoners free from jail with a tunnel! And another report mentioned blowing up neighbours' cars! lol

[Edit:  Sorry, pallyndrome.  This is the same link Leto posted that I had to take down because of third party downloads.  I believe all the information on the link is spelled in his post on the page before this.  -Pam]

I was reading about the tunnels in simprograms, what will they think of next, lol.

Judhudson at simprograms.com has posted a bunch of screenshots from a Russian site.  It shows, among others, the town of Twinbrook with fog, broken railroad track with derailed flatbed train car, old bridge and swampy look to it... .  I can hardly wait!!

I had to laugh, one pic shows a guy with an enormous block of something, clay I think and another shows where he has sculpted a toilet.

With the shots that I saw it reminds me a lot of small town Louisana or Florida USA.  I love it...the only thing missing is the spanish moss hanging from the trees.

That is nice info! Does that train really work? I mean, if Twinbrook is going to be a huge town, we could need a working train to get us from A to B.
(Yes, I'm slilently hoping for a mixture between The Sims and Cim City).

Oops sorry Pam. I thought it was new, because snooty only just put a link to it. If I see anything interesting in the sequel I'll just post the info.

Just ordered my copy! 

[pallyndrome]

I ordered mine today too! Can't wait for the phone call to tell me it's ready!

Here's a new post from Gamespot.  Pretty interesting walkthrough video that shows how the architect, firefighter, and private investigator jobs work.
