Sims 3 expansion will teach older sims to regret misspent youth

In the press release for this spring’s upcoming Sims 3 expansion pack, general manager of EA’s Sims studio Scott Evans proclaims:

The Sims 3 Generations includes new gameplay experiences and content that our community has been requesting for years including bunk beds, expansive weddings, midlife crises and more. Imagine booby trapping a friend’s toilet or turning your imaginary friend into a real person, throwing bachelor or bachelorette parties, all to spend your elder Sims years reminiscing about the past.

Yes, imagine all that great stuff which doesn’t at all sound like stuff you can kind of already do in the game. The press release also darkly hints at some sort of Facebook integration. Looks like I fell in love with Sims Medieval* at just the right time.

* No joke. You can hear me burbling enthusiastically on this week’s Jumping the Shark podcast. I’ll have a review posted at Gameshark in the near future.
