SimsVIP just posted the following bit of news. It appears that a swedish retail site Webhallen has posted the cover art as well as the product information on The Sims 3 Generations! It looks as if it will have a June 2011 release date. No exact time just yet (I suppose the May 10th date no longer applies)
Enjoy a whole spectrum of rich life experiences with your Sims!
Start off in the imagination-fuelled world of childhood and embrace the drama of the teen years. Experience the complicated realities of adult life, then reap the benefits of growing up in each life stage. A wealth of new options and activities makes your Sims’ lives more meaningful than ever before, whatever their ages. With new celebrations, dramatic life events, and all-new ways for your Sims to express their creativity, The Sims 3 Generations lets your Sims live life to the fullest!
Features:
- Sims of every age can enjoy new activities! Kids can hang out with friends in tree houses. Teens can pull hilarious pranks. Adults can suffer midlife crises. And so much more!
- Whether it’s a raging all-teen party while the parents are out, a high school graduation or an official wedding ceremony, new celebrations make every age more fun!
- From bachelor party hi-jinks to getting in trouble for bad grades to hearing rumors around town about Sims who cheat on their spouses, hilarity ensues when new drama unfolds!
- Sims will enjoy all-new ways to be creative including tinkering with chemistry sets, making their own home movies that they can watch on their own TVs, playing make believe as an astronaut, dinosaur, princess, and more!
- All of the new activities, celebrations, and drama are easier than ever to remember and reminisce about with a new Memories system that keeps track of major life moments and also lets you share them on Facebook or your Sims My Page!
It mentions “high school graduation” in the description. I’d love it if universities were back, but does that just mean they added an actual graduation for teens, not college?
Ah, @GizmonicInstitute – you’re correct. The pic though reminds me of the Sims 2 University coverart. I’m not used to seeing highschool graduations like that – one I had was super-lame.
Memories being back will be nice. But why would you need/want to share them on facebook?
One thing I hope we get in this one is collections, since Medieval had them, Though, they weren’t as nice as they were in The Sims 2.
Awesome Cover from this Game , and the new Infos too 🙂
SOUNDS GREAT! I like the memory system and I can add it to my sims page or facebook. Creative!
Now is there baby showers?
and when is the release date?
Sounds like a very welcome EP. ^_^
I still think it may get a may released because of the fact that ea always released the new expansion pack every six months. So hopefully they really do keep it on a may released because we have been waiting to long for a new expansion pack.
OHHHHHHHHHHHH MYYYYYYYYYYYYYY GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODDDDDD
I’M SOOOOOOOOO EXCITEEEEEEEEEEEED
WOOOOOOOHOOOOOO XD XD XD XD
Now that this is leaked, they HAVE to reveal the realise date/ confirm it’s happening on the 5th of April/tomorrow (Tuesday is usaly announcmeant day apparently so it makes sense).
Will be shocked if the announced something else instead of this, in fact I would almost bet on it.
Even through EA has yet to announce it, over at the official Sims 3 website, its beginning to look more and more like Generations is the real deal.
I hope this Addon is coming at May :/ .
Not in June *Hopes*
GizmonicInstitute,
I don’t know, but unless they mention university game play, specifically, we have no good reason to think they’ll add it.
This looks like a nice expansion, but most of the ‘new’ features really should’ve been added in the base game! And having high school reunions and not being able to go to college after is the dumbest thing! What are we suppose to do after we graduate?! The loss of college will be even more evident in this EP because we graduate from high school! They better have more in store or I’m going to be disappointed, as always! But, nice cover art!! 😀
Wow! It looks very nice, I really like the graduation scene 😀
Ughhh this will be the longest day in my life… I can’t wait till tomorrow XD XD
Which Creature is in this Expansions Pack then?
And this Cover looks nice , i think they have the blue or green Colour , and i hope they are new Information about this new Expansions Pack morning coming 🙂 .
There may not be a creature 🙁 Hopefully we’ll find out more tomorrow.
Hey, a new screen of Generations here:
http://gamesims.sk/2011/the-sims-3/dodatky/generations/generations-odhaleny-dalsi-obrazok/
looks Cool. Maybe is it a New Skill or so , but im not sure :/
This would be sad then 🙁
If the chemistry set is back, like in Sims 1, maybe Frankenstein is the new creature, or a Dr. Jeckly and Mr. Hyde type monster. That’s probably wat the kid in the video in the dinosaur suit was imitating, lol.
finally a normal expansion
What do you mean normal expansion?
Maybe because they know we know about “Generations”, I reckon the big announcement is that University will be in Generations.
University making a comeback!
Chemistry sets! Woohoo, I haven’t seen that since Sims 1. And home movies that you can play on the TV? Awesome. I wanted something like that in Sims 2. This looks like a good EP.
SCREAMING!!!!
its so great expansion!
Hmm, high school graduation is interesting. I’d still prefer something like University but whatever. Maybe it will be more than just a one-time thing and you’ll be able to actually enter schools. Somehow I doubt it.
Chemistry and memory tracking sound like a hits. I know a crapton of people have mentioned wanting those in TS3. I wonder if home movies will be like taking photos in WA?
I’m super excited! I love the home movies and now the important memories aspect is coming back! Maybe parties will be more exciting now!
Baby showers? I don’t think so.
Realease date: You will hear at super secret suprise
Norwegian cover in much better quality!
