Welcome to The Sims 2 University! Part 5

Greetings All,

Love is in the air at Maxis. OK, that sounds really cheesy, but the Cupid upload did appear on thesims2.com today as our little Valentine's gift to you.

It's also a good time to point out an important feature of The Sims2 University for the loyal players. As many of you know, "young love" only lasts so long in The Sims 2, especially with Townies. We really wanted players to be able to have the experience of seeing their high school sweetheart Sims go off to school together and eventually get engaged and even married. We've added the ability to take any teenage Sim (even Townies) off to college. You can now select Townie Sims as students and move them into dorms; when you do, they become playable Sims that you control. After graduation, they are to the Family Bin back in the neighborhood. So you can finally have two teens fall in love, become Young Adults together, get engaged, and then marry. Finally, you can age your teenage Townies!

As another little V-Day T-Mail gift, here are a couple cool screens for the occasion with a The Sims 2 University touch.

Talk to you soon,

Tim
