Default A man in many of the pictures...
As I was looking at the new screenshots, I noticed a man that was in the 5 most recent images released in the screenshots section of thesims3.com


Links to big images with him in it:

Far right, standing behind some ropes

Right and in the back, on the sidewalk away from the protestors

Far left, in a slightly different shirt but clearly the same man

Left, off in the distance walking near a tree

Is this coincidence or do you think he has some important role in the Sims 3's new neighborhood? Maybe some tie to the Bella Goth mystery?

Could be just one of the playable sims/ townies though- there are a few characters I'm seeing in many screenshots. Perhaps we'll be able to play him!

Yeah, maybe he was a playable when they took the pictures. Or maybe he's just an outdoors kind of person.

I actually find this kind of funny. Probably one of Maxis' little jokes... I wonder if it's a charicature of one of the dev workers? :D

I noticed that too heavenzdvl987! When I first saw him in the first pics, I thought "Well, maybe it's just a coincidence or something." Then he kept popping up everywhere. It's probably a little easter egg or something in the game.

Reminds me of Will Wright. Maybe he's been stuck in there as a joke?

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.

He's too fat for Will Wright.
#12 Old 21st Sep 2008 at 4:01 AM
Could he be the new Goopy..?
#13 Old 21st Sep 2008 at 4:19 AM
The new Goopy...I dunno if I like that. He reminds me of when you're trying to take a romantic picture and in the background is this creepy random townie staring in through the window like a ghost or something. You have a good eye, I'd have never have noticed that. Especially with the fourth pic. The old man's expression cracks me up.

Maybe but he's always like a distance away from something big happening, like he's stalking....

He's probably just randomly there...I see a few other sims that are in a lot of screenshots.

I just love the face that the guy to the right of him in the picture is making (second to last pic posted). LOL!

Looks like the Rod Humble character that appears in either Free-Time or Apartment Life but a bit fatter lol. You all have a keen eye ;D

the creepiest is he is NEVER participating in the picture, but just standing there are walking away, it's like they just dropped him there.

Mrs. Crumplebottom's relative? A fat version of Will Wright? Stalker? Or a townie with a million clones? :D

I'm curious as to what this is because this guy might become a regular in the game, like Mrs. Crumplebottom, Goopy, or Rod Humble.
