    Yeah, I'd like to know what it would entail. Computer video games are base game and we got consoles in CL. I don't see them spending the time to make more.

    I like that 80s styled arcade pack they showed concept art for. Single tile arcade machines, racing booths, ddr game, pinball, or maybe a claw machine.

    Kindly define.

    Well, just more elements of the gaming history, arcade shops, arcade machines, new video games, gamer accessories (Maybe even few PC recolors!)

    Why not add other sorts of games, checkers, acy-ducy (backgammon), bring back the pool table? Fix the current chess so that the sims play an actual game (as in TS2), not just aimlessly move pieces around. How about yard games such as volly ball and croquet? Bowling was originally a lawn game, so how about that?

    You know what would be cool? If teens, young adults, adults, elderly could play Voidcritters.
    Also a new card game could be preety cool.

    You are correct. There is no logical reason for the other sims to not be able to play the game. TS2 had a form of poker, but there are others out there - bridge, wist, hearts, fish, even Old Maid. The more one thinks about it, the more one sees the great potential in a pack like this. In another topic someone suggested Marco Polo for sims in swimming pools.

    Heck, how about a D&D/TTRPG interaction? Put the book/screen/game box on a dining table, invite sims to play. the initial Sim is the GM and they sit around the table with papers in front of them (and maybe even roll dice?)

    Must be multi-task-able with eating pizza. :)

    I forgot about that. Great idea, and definitely include rolling dice. Maybe even having little figures to move around on a map.

    and add the possibility of them putting on costumes while playing...

    Since Strangerville paved the way, why not a pack that enables one's sims to go on adventures: slay dragons, rescue fair maidens, defeat evil-doers, become heroes...

    I would love a Disney, 10th Kingdom fairy tales Gameplay with a full world, good vs evil elements & abilities. And NO CELLPHONES.

    A kinda classic geek based pack would be cool. Arcades, comic book shop and maybe a skill/career for comic book drawing? Sign me up.
    If we get a university pack these might fit in well, based on previous iterations.

    Yes, I would like a pack like this, also a casino pack.

    I wish they would bring back reading magazines which would change your skills or mood.

    Yeah, but we need single/double based video games that look different and are one tile to add to our arcades, coffee shops etc. we only have the base games ones which are big, and the Get together one which is also big.

    TS2 gave us stand up video games that were different than the ones available on computer, as well as pinball. Both were sim magnets and prove it can be done. We also got a pool table where sims played a real game, and the same can be said for the chess table. I believe a poker table was available as well. EA might balk at a casino pack, but it might have posssibilities, especially if we got appropriate bb items to build a proper facility. I'm thinking Monte Carlo, London, or Paris here, not Vegas or Atlantic City. Some class would be welcome for a change. Great places for your secret agent sims to do their business as well. For outdoors, how about volley ball or croquet?

    yes i want my sims to play fps games and hit the table when they lose. if they're children and someone goes to their room i want them to yell in simlish "get tf outta my room i'm playing minecraft!" jk lol but anyways how could a gaming pack work in sims, like what would they add? more gaming options to the computer?

    Gaming does not have to be just Computer games. I'm a Table Top RPG player. I have friends with Bookshelves full of board games, or miniatures games (Warhammer, mostly) They could expand gaming well beyond the computer.
