Heyyyy!

Just wanted to wish everyone at SimsFans a Happy New Year, and all the best for 2009. Don't party too much now ;)

Games Radar has posted a new article about their recent adventure to EA Bay's HQ's, where they make The Sims. Check it out here. This article was deleted.

Thanks to SuggieGlider for this find!

A new blog has been posted in the VIP section of TheSims3.ea.com. Here it is:

Hi fans,

This month’s edition of the developer blog is about Build and Buy, or B/B, as we often call it on the team.

Sims2.ea.com has pulled the recently posted Minimum System Requirements for The Sims 3, from their website. MaxoidHydra posted this announcement in the BBS today:

Hi Simmers,

Many of you have noticed that the min specs and stickies have been deleted. We want to let you know that they are being revised at the moment and we'll have a much clearer minimum specs page up shortly.

Some of you will probably have questions. But we'll definitely post another sticky where Simmers can ask questions and also offer answers like the one we had up.

Thanks and we apologize for the inconvenience.

Thanks to Linnyxx17 on the forums for this heads up!
