    Being a brit i love playing the sims, its american styled (obvs it being made american and being based in america) it makes it so much fun living the american life style... Mail boxes, styles of homes, pools (soon) etc

    However... How would american simmers feel if they went british style? London town, country style?

      Actually, they I think they should. Big Ben and all that.

      I would enjoy it. I loved WA just for the chance to see other countries. I have no idea how accurate they were, but I really liked them. Being a rather poor American, it is very unlikely I will ever get the chance to ever see another country, excepting the time I went into Canada for the day, and that looked just the same as home.

      Do you not have mail boxes in Britain? Do you just have the smaller boxes on the front of the house by the door instead?

      We have letter boxes on the front door, they're not really boxes. But in Glasgow we do have Dr Who's tardis.

      Adding a UK themed world would be nice. It would add variety to the game.

      Well what I'd really love to see are those houses and buildings all close together.

      Leave it to my fellow Americans to figure out a way to deliver the post without actually having to get out of the truck. :D

      I am American and I think that would be wonderfully fun and enjoyable.

      We'd need Seasons first, you couldn't make an authentic version of the UK with the constant sunshine we currently have in game... ;) It just wouldn't feel right!

      It'd be cool to have the ability to build terraced houses though.

      I agree, I used to do that in Sims2, but we'd definitely need seasons, lot's of rain and wind and fog.

      I lived with scots for like 5 years, so I'm immune to limey.

      I would love new towns based off of other countries to be implemented like this in the future.

      And don't forget the double-decker bus even if it is only decoration. And the red phone booth, although those are probably nearly long gone now due to cell phones, like it is in America.

      Really?! Do things get in? Like bugs and little lizards and things? And isn't that cold? I have cousins who live out west, and even with a closed house things like scorpions get in. They taught me to always check shoes before you put them on!

      But I would love an EP with other countries, as long as they are accurate and I can learn things about the country, and not just stereotypes.
