September 12th - How Are You Celebrating National Video Games Day?

Sul sul, everyone! 

Did you know that the first video game was released more than six decades ago? On our side, we have an extensive and fascinating history that extends over 40 years. So many memories, stories, and anecdotes that we wouldn't mean anything without our community. So, what better way to celebrate National Video Game Day than here with you all. 

 

For all of us here at Electronic Arts, video games are much more than simply entertainment; they connect us with friends and family, teach us lessons, inspire us to develop our creativity, challenge us to learn new abilities/skills, and show the value of working together as a team. There is always a game for everyone, no matter their age, culture, or style; in fact, it has become a way of life for many of us. 

 

So, how are you going to celebrate? Do you have anything special planned? As a creature of habit, today I will be taking a break from arguing with a horse, and attempting to domesticate Greg, to explore some of the areas I don't typically visit in The Sims 4. I might spend some time in Newcrest for a change, or even give Merfolk a chance.

    I'll be introducing horses to Britechester by converting the Laurel Library into a stately home with stables. Because every time I start a new household I find it needs a horse. I try and get by without one, especially on a tiny lot but then I think nope, something's missing and the thing that is missing is...a horse!

    I do believe they have helped Sims 4 to topple Sims Bustin Out as my all time favourite game by being the most loveable game characters ever (I hope Spyro the Dragon isn't reading this...sorry Spyro).

  • @EA_Cade I almost forgot another and the most important thing I'm going to do tomorrow is watch Behind the Sims!!!😍 Is always exciting to hear about news and updates!!! I have to wait all day long because I live in Europe 😂

    @simsplayer818 I'm super excited over all the news today. I've even changed my mind a bit over Project Rene; I think this shows that all the haters over on the dead bird app are wrong and the Sims team IS listening and honestly trying to improve a lot of things within their capability, of course. Also, I find the discourse on this site to be much more fruitful and I thank Cade for being so active and responsive.

    Is it Thanksgiving or what? Listen to me go on and on....lol

    Happy Simming, friends!
