Default New Apartment Life Trailer
I apologize if someone has already or is already making a thread for this but EA/Maxis just released the official trailer for Apartment Life.

http://thesims2.ea.com/about/ep8_videos.php

It looks really awesome, plus I love the turning bookcase and adore the children dancing together near the end! ^0^

Thanks for the link. The game looks exciting. This might make it feel like we're in a whole new game. Also, I think it looks a lot like Sims 3 with controlling multiple households. Does anyone know the system specs on this EP?

I didn't know they can hit their nose while kissing, or is it new?

I definitely love the hidden room behind the book case :D

HeeHee! Cute trailer! XD I wonder if that hitting noses thing has to do with reputation? Anyway it is new, sims couldn't do that before. XD

My eyes. Almost exploded. When I saw the revolving bookcase.

Can anyone say Scooby Doo?

I'm so looking forward to this expansion pack.

Did you see the kid jumping rope in the beginning? It also looks like there are some kids riding those bouncing animals that are in parks.There's an adult jumping rope too, now that I rewatch. I would love some new interactions for children.

I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints.

That's so crazy, the other day I was just wondering how hard it would be to make a revolving bookcase Anyway, I'm really exciting for AL, and this trailer just made it worse

waiter, there's a conundrum in my soup

Non-controllable roommates, reputation, magic, and now secret doors. This expansion is looking to have every little thing I've wanted.

Who'd have thought an expansion with such a drab name like "Apartment Life" would be so robust?

What I'm really looking forward to are all of the new interactions. They have certainly been a long time coming.

Do I dare disturb the universe?

I was like "WHATTTT!?!" when I saw the revolving bookcase. Also I loved the interaction with the guy swinging the child round.

Yeah, I noticed that too! It would be sooo cute if kids could have crushes on each other now and grow up childhood sweethearts!

Revolving bookcase! Perfect for my hidden basement for the Goth to hide Alex and Beau's lovechild in while Alex is at University! :D

I would like to clear up the little matter of my sanity as it has come into question. I am not in any way, shape, or form, sane. Insane? Hell yes!

People keep calling me 'evil.' I must be doing something right.

Wouldn't it be hilarious if the sim swinging the child had a low relationship score with them and "accidentally" let them go flying ? Kind of like the leap into arms hug when the receiver fails to catch the sim jumping.

LMAO! That was my very first thought upon seeing that interaction for the first time!
