Did EA lay off all of the good graphic designers or do they just don’t care anymore? I know that the product is a stand-alone version of the Create-A-Sim from the original Sims 3 game, but couldn’t they spend more than 2 minutes working with the icon that comes with the demo? It’s pretty awful… We’ll soon this this icon on pages when the demo comes out sometime in March. Thanks to The Sims Slovenija for the find.
you don’t have to spend 2 minutes making that, It would only take 10 seconds to finishing making those things on photoshop, not to mention, its embarrassing to have fans creating better stuff than the people who made the stuff the fans are making the stuff for…
Oops my bad, Tried making it, actually takes 3-4 seconds to create that…
Wow this is one of the worst Sims icons ever! Totally fake.
I hope it is fake, but it’s actually from the official Sims 3 site – see link :/
Well there are some strange things happening over the last few weeks. Where are the designers?
Probably the same place as the EA Brazil employees – the unemployment office.
That’s a joke!
EA really need to get their act together, and soon.
So pretty! *rolleyes*
it doesnt look bad its just a little icon. although the color throws it off
They didn’t even bother to place it in the reflection, now that’s just wrong.
I still cant see the utility of this after the game is out. I guest they know they’re gonna loose money on it so why would they put more time on it.
I guess coz people wanted one, but this is no different to the original and is only being released as a way to get monex. But if it’s the same, surely they’d know that’s not what people wanted?
No, scratch that. This is EA, of course they wouldn’t.
IMO they need to sort out their reputation before it’s too late… :/
It’s so easy on EA’s end to push out this demo. And it is certainly useful and a good strategy. I bought the Spore: Creature Creator in early 2009 months after Spore’s inital full release. It probably is trying to apply to the young (teenage) gamers who see the game for £5/$10 and think, “yeah, i’ll get that”
