Can we have cut-scenes (special event camera) again, please?

I absolutely loved the cut-scenes in the Sims 2! They were fun, and I think they added a lot to your sims. They made major moments in your sims' lives actually seem special. First kiss, marriage, having a baby, I mean, those should be important! Not just get a memory and keep playing like nothing happened. I really think we should get this back. Add your thoughts!

    Ah, I loved those :) I remember one time when I played TS2, and a couple woohooed for the first time. My parents were in the room next to mine. Wouldn't have been a problem, if the sound hadn't been maxed out. So there I sat, with the seductive music and sounds from that cut-scene on max, had no idea how to turn it down, and just hoped my parents wouldn't wonder what it was they heard. Until today I'm still thankful they didn't come to my room that moment.

    I was really dissapointed first time I played TS3 and there was no cut-scenes.


    This! I played on the family computer back then and was always so embarrassed when those scenes would come up. But then again, who wouldn't be as a ten year old?

    I loved the cutscenes! Here's a video I found on youtube with the most of the cutscenes:

  • i miss them too! but i wish we could click the mouse or press any key to skip it. cuz at one point it got annoying.. before it got cute again. :P
  • Thanks for the responses guys! I still really want them back, but I think I can definitely relate to the getting old thing at times, which is why I really love Bosslaydee's idea:

    MissHoney118, thanks for the video! And Cinebar, I didn't know that, but I still think it's worth a try to get it back.

  • I would love to have the special events camera back! I loved those little cutscenes so much. I'm one of the few who actually never got tired of them haha

    Did people really not know that there was an option to disable the special events camera? Because there definitely was. =p

    I noticed it when I installed it on my current PC and upgraded the graphics level ^^
  • I loved those cut away scenes especially the first kiss one. It was too cute, but I definitely agree with bosslaydee, it should go off when you click the mouse or something, that was the annoying thing. :lol:
  • If they did happen to bring this back to TS4, they should definitely keep the disabling option, since a lot of people are tired of it after awhile.
