GameSpot – The Sims 3 Ambitions exclusive hands-on (2 screens and video)

Hahaha…I love the robot in the corner of the inventor pic!  We finally get to see the game in video form.  Check out the video and pics below from GameSpot’s new hands-on report on The Sims 3 Ambitions!

Ghosts appear as glowing blobs of varying colors and have different ages (such as young or old) and different temperaments (lower-level ghosts are “kind” or “nice,” while higher-level ghosts will put up much more of a fight). They also have a monetary value attached to capturing them. Once you’ve sucked up every specter, you’ll receive a cash bounty for clearing out the property and have the spirits in your inventory, which you can then donate to science. Interestingly, while you’d figure that working the graveyard shift as a ghost hunter would be a lonely and isolating job that cuts deeply into your sim’s need to socialize, it turns out that several of the jobs you’ll take will actually be in the inhabited homes of other sims across town. You can interact before and after you’ve taken care of their ghost problem, so you can still make friends, chat, and get to know their traits. However, these other sims won’t feel like talking when there’s a ghost within sight range–they’ll be too busy running in terror.

    Oooo, loved the video. Got to see the new careers in action and see a bit of Twinbrook. Though that fire engine is sooo slow especially when one of the slowest cars can zoom right past it.

    Depends on the country. June 1 for US.

    And yeah, the article doesn’t have much new, but the video is by far the most informative we’ve seen 🙂 Nice to get some details about how those careers work.

    Did anyone else notice that the firefighter went down the stairs to get to the firetruck instead of using the poles to get down? It seems like the pole would be faster than taking the stairs.

    He did take the pool. Just hard to see through the wall.
