The Sims 3 - Countdown and Release Date Discussion - Page 11

Same here guys!!! It's really the best way to keep our minds of the delay and focus on doing something useful in our own lives!!!

DobbyDude · 11-03-2009, 11:50 AM

I'm keeping my self busy in the outside world too, But can't wait to get my hands on the Sims3 and see what its like... When I get it I probably wont be able to play for fear of not being able to build aything as good as anyone else... I'm sure I will get over it eventually and build some wonderful old buildings...and funky characters.

Lara4484 · 12-03-2009, 07:23 AM

OMG, Jay!!! I'm sure you'll build amazing houses and I want you to send all of them to me so they will liven up my town!!!! I'm positive they'll be great, as well as the Sims you'll create in CAS!!!!
I really have so much to do lately and Wednesday is a killer day for me because I have to be at college for 8 hours, but thankfully when the game comes out my 10 days of finals will be almost over and getting the game will be an absolutely unbelivable dream!!!! All my hard work during the semestar will be sooo worth it, since at the end I'm getting the ultimate reward - the TS3 CE!!!!
I just talked to my store in Sarajevo yesterday and they said that they could almost surely order the CE for me to buy it in Sarajevo!!! That way I wouldn't have to spend money on going to Zagreb or have my parents spend it on sending me the game from Zagreb!!! I'm sooo happy about that!!! Yaaaay!!!!

Just wanted to update the countdown!!!

It's now 81 days till TS3 games for Northern America and 84 days for the UK/Europe/Australia!!!! Yay, we'll be in the 70's in a few days!!!!

SBFC-Chris · 12-03-2009, 05:37 PM

Beaker · 12-03-2009, 05:38 PM

I think its because we always get games on a Friday and North America get them on a Tuesday.

Evionthecool · 12-03-2009, 11:05 PM

erg i cannot wait for it to come out...on of the biggest dissapointments for me is looking on the internet on like january 25th and going ok its gonna be released feb 20th then going in on feb 10th and asking to pre-order the game and the person says to me. why are you pre-ordering so early and i was totally

?confused

? then he said it wasnt being released until august NO!

.but then i figured out its coming out in june so

im not so dissapointed but at least they will have more time to fix mistakes and make the game BETTER

. dang well only a few months to go hehehe

Lara4484 · 12-03-2009, 11:34 PM

I'm sure the months left will just fly by without us even noticing since we will all be busy with either school, college or work!!!

Jan_831 · 12-03-2009, 11:37 PM

I agree, it is going by rather quickly.

Lara4484 · 13-03-2009, 12:03 AM

It really is and I'm really suprised about it, because I thought the days would pass by more slowly!!!

DobbyDude · 13-03-2009, 12:06 AM

The wait has gone from 118 days to like 80 odd ow really quickly, although I stopped posting so much I still come and look often and if I see something interesting to comment about I do. When it gets nearer the release I will be on more often and posting lots more.

I thought so too

Lara4484 · 13-03-2009, 12:24 AM

Well, I guess everyone has a lot on their plates and they don't have the time to notice how fast or slow time is passing, so when they do stop to see, they're just surprised so much time has already passed!!!

Metalgecko · 13-03-2009, 07:52 AM

Star will I be able to get The Sims 3 Collector's Edition here in South Africa?

Lara4484 · 13-03-2009, 08:30 AM

I don't see why you won't be able to get it, since I live in Bosnia and yesterday I just found out I can buy the CE in my store here in Sarajevo!!! I'm sure that South Africa will also get the CE along with just the game and you can always pre-order online, since I'm sure there's at least 1 online shop that delivers to South Africa!!! I don't know which one though, but I'm sure someone else will!!! Somebody on the forum was nice enough to find an online store that made deliveries to Croatia, so I'm sure someone will let you know as well!!!

pollyncuts · 13-03-2009, 09:48 AM

What exactly does the Collecters Edition contain,
I've pre-ordered the normal one

sims3uni · 13-03-2009, 10:54 AM

well the collection edition includes the Sims 3 core game, a 2GB The Sims Plumbob™ USB drive with matching Green Carabiner, an exclusive Italian-styled/Vintage Sports Car download for in-game, a Prima Tips and Hints Guide, Plumbob stickers,The Sims 3 Neighborhood Poster, and a quick start reference guide.

sims3uni · 13-03-2009, 10:57 AM

80 more days for Northern America and 83 days for UK/Europe/Australia

Lara4484 · 13-03-2009, 12:21 PM

Wow!!! Northern America will be in the 70's tomorrow and we will be in 4 days!!! Yipeeee!!!

Talia05 · 13-03-2009, 01:40 PM

Wow!! Though this also means for us students that our exams are getting closer

But yeay to the nearing of The Sims 3!!

sibi4 · 13-03-2009, 02:47 PM

For me over here, the exams are going to end on March 30th!!! Then only on june 16th reopening!!! Till then HOLIDAYS!!!

Talia05 · 13-03-2009, 03:51 PM

Wow, lucky for some!

For me the Sims 3 CE will be a congratulatory present (to myself) for getting through the first year of uni lol!

It's only 13 weeks away! To me that sounds less than 83 days!

sibi4 · 13-03-2009, 04:02 PM

And for me TS3 will be a present for my parent's anniversary!!!lol On june 2nd

The Star Hermit · 13-03-2009, 04:03 PM
