Gamestop says the 26th of august. But they usualy get actual copies in the next day.
And usualy all the other stores follow suit within a few days.

/me is impatiently awaiting Apartment Life EP *taps foot* I am chomping at the bit to start a new legacy! I would really like to use apartment life though. I have been fighting uninstalling and reinstalling and play, thinking I would just have to do it all over again when apartment life comes out. **EDIT!  I just ofund out that if you do the / me thing on the forum it makes it italic and puts an * in front (point up the the impatiently waiting comment |

*is interested in what dizzy is saying* COOL! That's too bad that you have to wait. I mean, I would, especially with your sketchy ep installed in the past.....I would wait. It's unfortunate that it's so long away.  EDIT: Yeah, I'm not sure that I understand what you mean diz.... |

/me just had to try this out. *
LOL, well, ok I did try it out. Probably won't use it again though.
This alwaaaaaaaaaaays happens when a new expansion pack comes out. You itch to get your paws on it, and when you do, all you have is the urge to play. Although I have had the ole' "get-an-expansion-pack-and-then-can't-be-bothered-to-play" thing.
I put my pre-order in for the game the other day, apparently it's going to be released on the 28th over here! Yippee!!

Hehe, I can't wait either. I wish they'd release some new stuff about it though, all I keep seeing is damn TS3... what about those who are still on the TS2 bandwagon? We're being neglected!

It's unfortunate that it's so long away. EDIT: Yeah, I'm not sure that I understand what you mean diz.... Haha... sorry anti.. I had just been on SL and talking on skype and it's a text thing to show an action or something liek that. You type / me (with out the space) and then something like is happy.. and it usually pops up saying "Dizzy Sparrow is happy".... as aposed to me just typing it and it saying "You: Is happy" But a lot of us from sl even when not in sl will still write the / me thing even though it will show up as / me just cause it's kinda funny. I was doing that here... not really realizing that most of you might not know that in some IM programs (like skype, and msn I think) and Sl that it does that so you wouldn't get that i was being funny and have it say / me.  but the forum tricked me and knows that text command and made it an action. Though not as cool here cause you could totally write it like that with out the / me ;P I am talky today, and i still donno if my rambling help explain anything or not. |

Today TheSims2.com are holding two Community Chats for those who want to ask questions about Apartment Life. The first has already been and gone, but there is a second one at 4PM PDT. The transcript has been posted on the website, here: thesims2.ea.com/community/chat_08_07_08.phpI attended the first one and asked a question... but it didn't get answered! So when I get up tomorrow morning, I'm going to be looking out for my question on the second transcript  |

The Sims� 2 Apartment Life  Official Site news: thesims2.ea.com/about/ep8_index.phpScreenshots: thesims2.ea.com/about/ep8_screenshots.phpThe following is pasted from the official TS2 site detailing the new expansion pack - Apartment Life! Move your Sims into the close-quarters drama, humor, and excitement of apartment life!
Your Sims are moving into a brand-new apartment, and their lives will never be the same! Adventure, fun, and drama await them as they meet new people and explore their new neighborhood. Will they take their kids to the local playground, mingle in coffee shops, or hit the park to learn from the breakdancers? Close quarters mean new opportunities-move in with compatible roomies for a thriving social life, advance your career with the right social network, or find true love just down the hall. Whether they live in artsy converted lofts, the ultimate studio bachelor pads, or luxury apartments with their own butler, your Sims will experience all of the excitement of apartment life!
Features:- Move into the perfect apartment: a spacious loft, a cozy place for a young couple, or a multi-bedroom flat-share with friends.
- Mingle with Sims from all-new social groups: stylish socialites, artsy bohemians, sports jocks, gadget-collecting techies, or edgy gearheads.
- Take advantage of apartment life: form social networks to make new friends, advance their careers, or look for love.
- Build your Sim's new reputation meter: with a good reputation, your Sim can find the right friends to help them achieve their goals!
- Control multiple households: will you make your Sims live in happy harmony or comical conflict?
Release date - according to the pre-order page - is late August, 2008.So... Thoughts anyone? How does everyone like the idea of being able to throw your Simmies into apartments? i think it would be good if the sims could get drunk and they go all mad and the land lord comes in shouting! |

yay! I just got my copy today! Did anyone else notice the vast difference in space with this one?? *sigh* I can't beleive ea just realized that the PC game disks didn't need that much space. Wow. So much wasted plastic. Although I have norrowed the amount of cases I have by combining the discs and papers together.  |

Though I wish they would have done this one as think as all the others.. now the collection looks odd on the shelf, though I suppose it already wasn't matching cause UNI was in a carboard box o.O

o.O How did the games come packaged for you guys? Luckily here we've had plastic cases all of the time. My collection is a little jumbled though, as my boxes aren't all the same sizes - I brought TS2 Pets and Glamour Life when I was in America in 2006, so those cases are chunky compared to the rest.
