Description Electronic Arts announced that The Sims 2 is in development for the PlayStation 2, the Xbox, the Nintendo GameCube, and for all handhelds including PSP, the Nintendo DS, the Nintendo Game Boy Advance and mobile phones. The Sims 2 on the PC, released late last year, has already sold over 4.5 Million copies worldwide.
Maxis-EA is redefining this highly-acclaimed franchise and will deliver the classic open-ended gameplay as well as exclusive new features. The Sims 2 on console and handheld will include a completely new aspiration gameplay and new fully customisable content, improving the Sims experience on a console. Players will be able to fulfill their dreams while avoiding their fears and for the first time, will be able to take direct control of their Sim without having to use their cursor. All handheld versions will feature completely unique storylines and will ship simultaneously with the console games.
The Sims 2 console and handheld versions are scheduled to ship later this year.
