Hi Everyone,

Well I know I haven�t written in awhile, but as many of you may know, I�ve been traveling around showing the game to a lot of our international players.� It was a great trip, and as always, I was blown away by the fan community and their love for the game.�� I also had some great Sims cultural experiences, like Disco Bowling with the Dutch fan community in Amsterdam � talk about something you can tell the grandkids someday.���

Things continue to move forward with The Sims 2 Nightlife.� So much progress was made while I was away.� The Bowling Alley and Karaoke Machine are a couple of my favorite objects, and they just keeping getting better.� Also while I was gone the child animations got hooked up for �The Smustle;� there is nothing funnier than seeing a whole family, including grandma and grandpa out of the dance floor.� Knowing you guys, I wouldn�t be surprised if �The Smustle� starts a new International dance craze.� I can�t wait for you to be able to play it yourselves.�

We are having a big day today here at EA.� Each year we do something called Hot Summer Night.� This is when we invite journalists to come in and see all of our games.� Since you guys can�t be here, I didn�t want you to be left out, so I�m attaching a couple of new shots exclusively for you.��

I promise you�ll hear more from me over the next few weeks, and I�ll keep you posted on progress too.
