SnootySims previews MySims Party and MySims Racing
Feb 8th
SnootySims had the chance of attending a MySims fansite event which showcased both MySims Party and MySims Racing. Both games were reported to be actually fun. Since we already know a lot about MySims Party, I’m going to quote some information Snooty shares on their other game, MySims Racing:
As in true Sims fashion, you can customize everything; Not only can you change the brakes, engine power,etc, but also completely change its appearance like paintjob, bumpers, wheels,etc,etc. They promise to have a total of 170 parts! A lot of these must be unlocked though. Ofcourse your Sim can also be customized with unlockable parts. Other things to unlock are new drivers, cars and tracks.
There are 2 options; A free race (pick a driver and a track and go) and a storymode where you have to do tasks like bring pizza’s around and things like that. We didn’t get to see that part though, but an interesting part is that the game starts in a desert-like environment and broken down houses and as you fulfill more asignments, the city will grow and look prettier. Like a small pizzastand will turn into a huge restaurant.
If you’re familiar with Mario Kart, you will feel right at home; It has powerups on the road, obstacles, ramps,etc. Also by making nice moves on the road, your boostbar will fill up. This boostbar will give a huge speedincrease.

MySims Racing finally peaks into existence
Dec 23rd
Last year, I heard a rumor from a reliable source that MySims: Racers was being planned. Flash forward to this year, a website by the name of AllGame has created a product page for the game. No details have been announced except that it is still on track for 2009 and it’s for the Nintendo DS and Wii.
I personally don’t enjoy racing games so I’m not looking forward to this…
Thanks to Jack for the tip.
