Move your Sim into an apartment where it can be tortured by the expansion's soundtrack
Electronic Arts has today announced another expansion pack for the Sims 2, but at least this one isn't a themed furniture 'collection'.
Anyway, the Apartment Life pack for the Sims 2 will feature a 'rocking' soundtrack (with not one band this reporter actually likes on it) featuring the likes of Good Charlotte and Katy Perry.
In Apartment Life, a player's Sim is able to move out of the suburbs and into a block of flats - in the US mould, rather than the likes of Nelson Mandela House (from Only Fools and Horses).
Various apartments are available, including a converted loft, 'swinging' studio pad or 'posh' penthouse with butler included.
For the first time, apparently, players can control multiple households, so that the main Sim's neighbours can get involved.
The Sims 2 Apartment Life has been given a release date of August 22nd in Europe and Asia-Pacific regions, with the North American version following on the 26th.
