Sims 2 University Release Date

I have been to several different sites to see if the Sims 2 University has been released yet. I know it’s technical release date is Monday, but I’m hoping someone’ll put it out in the store early. I’m dying to play it this weekend, and I don’t want to wait until Monday!

Tell me I’m not the only one waiting impatiently for this to arrive!

Your thread title scared me.

Stop that! :mad:

Oh, hell - I’m sorry - it was meant to be tongue-in-cheek. Not to scare anyone!

(I’ll ask a mod to change it…).

E.

Err…as soon as I figure out how the hell to report it…

E.

Can’t report your own posts, so the thing here would’ve been to click on Bosda’s post, and copy & paste the URL to the thread (not sure if reporting the post returns the thread or the post. Mods?)

Went ahead and reported it in Bosda’s post.

Hopefully, a mod will change it shortly.

If you really can’t wait until Monday I’ve got a couple of smuggled Betas of future Sims releases that might help give you a fix. These are really immersive and require more skill and dexterity than the previous games. You’d have to come here and play them, we can’t risk them spreading on the web yet. Read the descriptions and let me know if your interested.

Sims 2- Clean My House

This is the most realistic simulation ever created, you’ll think you’re actually doing housework. This game even contains the “Laundry” download and the “Dog Puke on the Carpet” minigame.

Sims 2- Yardwork

The outdoor companion to the previous release, you’ll swear you can feel the dirt under your fingernails.

Not interested? Ah well. Good luck in finding your real fix early, I’m going to spend my weekend with my beta versions.

Actually, I get plenty of ‘Cat Puke on the Carpet and In My Shoes’, and 'Dammit, honey! Didn’t You See the Cat Dragging His Ass On the Carpet?" at home:).

Most of this weekend will be spent playing my smuggled “Look For Dining Room Table That Doesn’t Take Up 3/4 of Our Tax Return” and “Why Can’t I Fit More Books In This Box?” for our upcoming move.

This thread is better suited for Cafe Society.

I’ll move it for you.

For the curious late-comers…what was the original thread title?
I went yesterday to EB to pay my five for them to hold it for me.
Found out the hubby and I had paid $20 to reserve San Andreas, but never picked it up so I transferred it to University.
I thought the official release date was Tuesday, the 1st?
I won’t complain if it is Monday, though. :cool:

Clicked the wrong box in quick reply.
Sorry about that. :smack:

It is still bolded in Elza B’s first post, the line is “I’m having trouble with an addiction” or something close. It was a bit scary for a lighthearted thread.

Are the supplies of new videogames so limited that you need to reserve a copy? I could imagine that might be the case with cartridge-based games, but for most CD-based games, I think you could go to the store on the release date and pick up a copy.

They seem to go that quick.
I get mine from the same guys everytime, so I like to go ahead and have them hold if from me, JIC.
Turns out it’s a good thing we go to the same people every time as now it’s over half paid for. :slight_smile:

Thanks, Foible!
I glanced over it thinking it was just like a title you can put in any post.
Forgot it did that automatically for New Thread posts.

Am I the only Sims 2 fan that’s just not bothered about it? Maybe it has something to do with the fact that I’m in university, but it just doesn’t appeal to me.

Take a look at the other new featuers before you make up your mind.

I’m looking forward to raising the dead!
Please, let them actually be able bring the deceased back to life!
I was dissappointed with Unleashed’s version of it…could only bring back zombies.
Speaking of which…I’ve only either won or totally lost when it comes to gambling death.
Does anyone know if you can get a green zombie sim in Sims 2, like in the orginal?

Wow, Lute, where’s that from?
I’ve just read on Gamespot about it adding an extra want slot or two (and an extra fear slot if you mess up! :eek: ) but nothing about the anti-aging thing.
I wonder how the “streaking” thing works.
In Leisure Suit Larry, it happens after he has one too many drinks. :stuck_out_tongue:

It’s in the Gamespot preview.

You’re not going to find it this weekend or Monday either, more than likely. The official release date isn’t until Tuesday, which is unsurprising given that 95% of games come out on Tuesdays. I preordered last week, so I expect it Tuesday or Wednesday.
