pcgamerpro - Maxis Live Broadcast Packed Full of Breaking News, Demos, Interviews and More
Today, the Maxis Label of EA hosted a live broadcast where viewers tuned in to hear breaking news and get in-depth looks at the label’s hottest video games from The Sims 3 franchise and SimCity. This virtual event was packed full of announcements and featured live software demos including the first live-streamed gameplay demo from the award-winning SimCity PC/Mac game.
On December 7th The Sims 4: For Rent will be available. Nosy neighbors, cranky landlords - what will be coming in this new DLC?
A voice actor for The Sims spoke about his experiences doing voice work for the game's fictional Simlish language, and how there was no dictionary for them
TechRaptor writes "Roughly 30 years ago, SimCity was making waves as a fun new simulation game. Players could build out an entire city and watch it spring to life — or die a horrible, fiery death. Fans had loads of fun with the games until the franchise (and its developer) more or less fell flat by the mid-2010s, but they might not know that Maxis once made business games, too."
Sadly Maxis games changed a lot after what EA did to the studio and Will Wright leaving the studio. I'd welcome more games like this returning, I don't know if they will, but if they do I'm all for it.
