Yeah, I spotted that too.
But to prevent this from becoming a +1-fest over Diss's +2 I will ask a relevant question.

Is there an eta for when this game is being released?

eta? Estimated Time announcment?

I don't know when exactly it'll be released, but I've heard something about 1Q 2004

estimated time of arrival. gonegold doesn't have them listed. I don't think it will before the middle of next year.

The yacht is kinda nice, though. I don't suppose we could have one of those.

Definitely a weird place, though. Stall toilets in the previous screenie... Cashier in this one... Looks like some kind of shop... With a chess table?

cool, I kinda want to install the first Sims now . I don't have any add-ons.

I'll probably wait till this gets to the bargain bins though. I probably will get bored of it too quick like the other one, but they are fun to play for a little while.

Because to have them all in one post he would have to have the images hosted on a server. Attaching them here allows Poly to take care of those details itself.

Couldn't he just copy/paste the link from the site he found the images? I have always done it this way... the easy way...

You have to be careful who you steal bandwidth from, though. Some people don't take kindly to it.

Sure, you shouldn't do it to those who writes "If you steal my bandwidth I'll hack you"
But I certainly doubt Gamespy/spot will start hacking other sites... if they don't want people to steal their bandwidth, they probably have lots of smart people around who can make it impossible for those who don't know hacking

The reason I didn't link from Gamspot, is because after certain time, the move the screenies into their member-only area, and thus the links would become broken. And I, personally don't much enjoy looking at red X's.

This way, however, as Skanky noted, 'Poly copies the images locally, and they will never disappear. (Unless they prune attachments somehow.)

Jeezus... he posted nice pictures. Stop railing on him.

It looks like the neighborhoods use the SC4K engine, doesn't it? Maybe there's a connection!?

Aha, that figures: I never bought any expansions. Maybe that's why I am not so sick of the Sims yet?

Still don't understand why there is the chess table, though... In a shopping centre.

I dream of a place that has stores where people can sit and play a game of chess. A vast imrpovement from all the fast food and chain stores which are all in and out.

It's got an arcade and book shelves as well, think of it as one of those pinko-commie culture shops.

The sims gets boring fast. Anymore, what I do is use a cheat code to get tons of money so that I can build a really cool house (especially since I have a few thousand extra objects I got off the internet - thank goodness for cable modems) because building is where I get enjoyment out of the game. Then I place a family in the house and watch them to see what they do, but it gets really boring when they all start going to the bathroom constantly and not only that but they'll all try and use the same bathroom even though my houses will have more than one. The sims isn't currently on my computer because it really isn't worth the space that it occupies...unfortunately I didn't realize this until after spending my money.
