I don't live in UK.

Is someone here, in this forum, live on UK and planning to visit the event?

If yes, Can I have some request to check about the needs and how smart the AI.

How do you feel about the needs? Will it always bother you when playing the game? Will you still need to fill all the needs bar meter to full before take a long journey or a long task? Or it just something that running in the background and we almost forget that ours sims has the needs bar too?

How smart the AI? How sims through the day without player interfere? Will he doing such random task (unreasonable/unrealistic), or organized very well that based on his traits, goal and favorites? Will he doing in a day something like a drama/story in TV, or he just standing/idle for hours and doing such boring thing like in TS2? Can sims take care his own needs very well, without player interfere? I hope our sims more active rather than idle for hours.

Thank you, if you want to check it for me.

Ah, I'd stand no chance in getting up to Manchester on a college day. Major suckage. Let's hope anyone who gets the chance makes good use of their time!

Interesting thing I just found in my email today...

"Hi Christine,

Congratulations! You are a winner in the EA competition for some hands on time with The Sims 3 on May 4th!"

:D

I would like to clear up the little matter of my sanity as it has come into question. I am not in any way, shape, or form, sane. Insane? Hell yes!

People keep calling me 'evil.' I must be doing something right.

Yey, congratulations indeed! So, if you're going, can you check whether there still is the 2 tiles border around the lot that you can't build on?

Yep, I'll check that. Hopefully they'll allow reviews to be written so I can pass any information on.

SilentPsycho's impressions can be read here, she says your sims can actually use counter corners now, leftovers are confirmed, and you get pop ups telling you exactly what sims are gossiping about! Pretty awesome. :D
