As a Mac user I am excited that Mac users will not have to wait the usual 6-9 months after everyone else (PC users) has the game and is talking about it. As a Sims fan, I hate to wait!

Oh
I love Sims 2, and I was looking forward to this game. Oh well. Patience is a virtue and all that.

I really think that it is bull too! I was SO looking forward to it. MANY people are going to be sad, disappointed and ticked off I think. They have had SO much time to release it and now making us wait LONGER, it is like they are teasing us.
I say the same: Meh.

I think it’s a bad move on EA to make the announcement when it’s just 2 weeks away from the release. EA should have made the announcement last year if it knew it wanted to release the game across all platforms.
