 <title>Do You Want to See a Movie Based on the Sims?</title>

 <description>&lt;!-- no strip poll --&gt;&lt;!-- no rss --&gt;&lt;div id=&quot;epoll-view-2061314&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;script type=&quot;text/javascript&quot;&gt;new Ajax.Request(&#039;/epoll/view/2061314&#039;,{method:&#039;get&#039;,onSuccess:function(transport){var epoll=$(&#039;epoll-view-2061314&#039;);epoll.update(transport.responseText);}});&lt;/script&gt;&lt;noscript&gt;&lt;!-- /no rss --&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I wasn&#039;t sure this idea was going to come to fruition, but it seems to be true: Not only is &lt;a href=&quot;http://nymag.com/daily/entertainment/2007/05/the_sims_to_screen_20th.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;the movie based on the Sims&lt;/a&gt; video games a go, but a producer for the movie &lt;a href=&quot;http://kotaku.com/5053209/the-sims-movie-concept-explained&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;explained the concept for the film&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Apparently some kids get a &quot;Sims Infinity Pack,&quot; and their actions in the Sim-world actually start happening. It could be somewhat interesting to see a thought that happens to most geeks play out on screen, but on the other hand, I might get confused watching the Sims and not being able to control anything. (What! They have conditioned me to control!) What do you think?&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Geek Chic: The Sims 2 H&amp;M® Fashion Stuff</title>
 <link>http://www.geeksugar.com/288351</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;If you haven&#039;t noticed the ads for the new &lt;a href=&quot;/tags/sims&quot; href=&#039;http://m.teamsugar.com/www/delivery/ck.php?bannerid=524&amp;amp;zoneid=133&#039; target=&#039;_blank&#039;&gt;The Sims 2 H&amp;amp;M® Fashion Stuff&lt;/a&gt; across the Sugar Network recently I suggest you take a gander. The game allows you to dress up your &lt;a&gt;Sims&lt;/a&gt; in H&amp;amp;M® clothing collections for men and women with The Sims 2 H&amp;amp;M® Fashion Stuff. Your Sims characters can choose from &lt;a href=&quot;http://fabsugar.com/288211&quot; &gt;FabSugar&lt;/a&gt;-approved H&amp;amp;M® fashions, then play with retail-themed items like mannequins, clothing racks, cash registers and even walk the runway. It&#039;s a real makeover from the days of plain Jane Sims clothing and adds a fun, girlie touch to the game. I dare you to not get addicted. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;object width=&quot;425&quot; height=&quot;350&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;param name=&quot;movie&quot; value=&quot;http://geeksugar.com/v/288344&quot;&gt;&lt;/param&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The game requires The Sims 2, The Sims 2 Special DVD Edition, or The Sims 2 Holiday Edition to play.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;script type=&#039;text/javascript&#039;&gt;&lt;!--//&lt;![CDATA[

 <title>Rihanna&#039;s SOS: Sims Style</title>
 <link>http://www.geeksugar.com/204081</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;YouTube user &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=kaelovesu&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;kaelovesu&lt;/a&gt; has been cooking up some hot new Sims videos. Ciara, Rihanna, Beyonce, you name it, this talented Sims expert has covered it. This video was one of my favorites because the virtual Rihanna actually looks like the real Rihanna- moves and all! &lt;object width=&quot;425&quot; height=&quot;350&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;param name=&quot;movie&quot; value=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/v/ODzb-FDfQUA&quot;&gt;&lt;/param&gt;
&lt;param name=&quot;wmode&quot; value=&quot;transparent&quot;&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/v/ODzb-FDfQUA&quot; type=&quot;application/x-shockwave-flash&quot; wmode=&quot;transparent&quot; width=&quot;425&quot; height=&quot;350&quot;&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
If you&#039;re a Sims fan and can appreciate the time and effort it takes to create one of these vids you should definitely watch it. For some more Sims amusement, check out the new &lt;a href=&quot;http://kotaku.com/gaming/the-sims/a-credit-card-for-your-god-complex-250558.php&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Sims credit card!&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

 <title>New Lily Allen Video - &quot;Smile&quot; (Simlish Version)</title>
 <link>http://www.geeksugar.com/182694</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;Well what do you know, a day after my best friend convinces me we have to go to a Lily Allen concert when she comes to San Francisco, I find out she&#039;s way geekier than I thought. Joining the ranks of &lt;a href=&quot;/97161&quot; &gt;Teen pop queens Aly and AJ,&lt;/a&gt; Allen has recorded her hit song &quot;Smile&quot; in Simlish. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;object width=&quot;425&quot; height=&quot;350&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;param name=&quot;movie&quot; value=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/v/yl4GzLccSFA&quot;&gt;&lt;/param&gt;
&lt;param name=&quot;wmode&quot; value=&quot;transparent&quot;&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/v/yl4GzLccSFA&quot; type=&quot;application/x-shockwave-flash&quot; wmode=&quot;transparent&quot; width=&quot;425&quot; height=&quot;350&quot;&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You can record your own rendition of &quot;Smile&quot; by Lily Allen in Simlish - the unique language of The Sims  - and enter for the chance to win prizes. Apparently, the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.singshot.com/contestDetail.html?contestId=1925&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;top 3 entries&lt;/a&gt; will be judged by Lily Allen to determine the winners. Wondering what the heck she&#039;s saying in this video? &lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Aly &amp; AJ Share How Chemicals React - In Simlish</title>
 <link>http://www.geeksugar.com/97161</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;Teen pop queens &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.alyandaj.com/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Aly and AJ&lt;/a&gt;, must have a geeky side. The sister duo, which is known for their &quot;Chemicals React&quot; song, recently teamed up with EA Games and released their hit in Simlish. While I&#039;m a die-hard Sims fan, I don&#039;t know the girls very well, so I was a little shocked at first. Now I&#039;m amazed, entertained and imagining how funny Madonna would sound in Simlish. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;object width=&quot;425&quot; height=&quot;350&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;param name=&quot;movie&quot; value=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/v/qCYjwiXVHf4&quot;&gt;&lt;/param&gt;
&lt;param name=&quot;wmode&quot; value=&quot;transparent&quot;&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/v/qCYjwiXVHf4&quot; type=&quot;application/x-shockwave-flash&quot; wmode=&quot;transparent&quot; width=&quot;425&quot; height=&quot;350&quot;&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The song was recorded for &lt;a href=&quot;http://geeksugar.com/96002&quot; &gt;The Sims 2: Pets,&lt;/a&gt; which launched in late 2006. It was also included on the PSP (PlayStation Portable) system version. If you&#039;re wondering what the girls are saying in English, just &lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Download Of The Day - The Sims 2: Pets</title>
 <link>http://www.geeksugar.com/96002</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;If you&#039;re a Sims fan, you&#039;ve probably done the family and white-picket fence thing a million times, but what about some fun-loving pets?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span class=&quot;inline left&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://images.teamsugar.com/files/usr/1/15111/Sims.preview.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;image outline preview&quot; height=&quot;182&quot; width=&quot;550&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;With &lt;a href=http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore?productLearnMore=TL007LL/A&quot;&gt;The Sims 2: Pets&lt;/a&gt; all you have to do is have your Sim pick up the phone and dial the Pet Adoption Service, where they’ll have plenty of cats and dogs to choose from. You can also create your own unique cats and dogs through the Create a Family screen, where size, color, body type, markings, and personalities can be tweaked to your heart’s content. Choose from dozens of pedigreed breeds, and make your new fuzzy friend look like your real life dog. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For more about this download and some fun photos, just &lt;/p&gt;
