May it Be

Where did April go?  And most of May too?  This has been sitting as a draft post for way too long now ... let's just get it over with!

Well, I think the big Sims thing I missed commenting on was the announcement of The Sims 3 Diesel Stuff Pack.  It's coming out in July, just after that other candy flavoured fluff is being excreted released.  Doesn't look too bad but nothing spectacular (and I already have plenty of similar clothes).  Bad news for anyone looking for cool clothes for their elders ... the oldies miss out once again.

I've had a lot of visitors looking for info on Sims Medieval (it's finally overtaken KP as most popular post) ... anyway, sorry, can't help you at the moment as I'm still making my way through Skyrim.  If it's Medieval you're after then maybe you can make do with a few screenshots from my first game in Dragon Age Origins (bought it ages ago but just got around to playing it).

And a random screenshot from Skyrim ...

And now to end on a really random note ... thanks to Red Scharlach, who can watch everyone's cute furry mammal without thinking of everyone's favourite Sherlock Holmes, Benedict Cumberbatch? Otterly hilarious! 

Fools

Nice joke EA ... but you're a few days late with the April Fools prank!  Seriously, we didn't need the cupcake bra with strawberry nipples.  Serves us right for joking about it, I guess.  Wait, is this a choc chip cookie  on her head?

Anyway, thank you for bringing us die-hard KP fans with no sense of humour.  Killing off Sims in interesting ways has been light entertainment since the game started.  But suddenly speculating on the forums about how you might kill off a  KP Sim amounts to a death threat.  Methinks some people just loves the draaaaama (yawn).   BTW should she ever find her way into my game then it will be death by cow plant I promise. 

And congratulations EA on being awarded "Worst Company in America" and for your humility in response.  Just the kind of thing that shows why you won it in the first place.  I didn't vote in the poll but I'm voting with my wallet since it's probably the only feedback you understand. 

Shorties

Coming third in the voting isn't something you should brag about like you won ... especially when you use bribery and even then end up a long way behind the two that mysteriously disappear from the podium.

"Landslide" is always very quickly followed by "mandate".  Good luck Queensland!

You know you've left it too long when you announce your band is breaking up ... and everyone says "um, were they still together?"  This seems to be happening a lot lately. 

UPDATE: My teeth are already aching at the sight of all that sweet stuff.  Anyone surprised that Catloverplayer is hoping for candy themed hot tubs and double beds?
