The Sims Online Labor Day Party
DATE: Labor Day Weekend, (Aug. 28th –Sept. 1st, 2003)
TIME: All Weekend
LOCATION: The Sims Online
Celebrate this Labor Day with No Labor in The Sims Online!
Think how great it would be if you didn’t need to work, could trade sleep for
partying, and ate only for pleasure not to survive, etc… For most of us, that
will never be the case, but you can experience this freedom this Labor Day
weekend in Electronic Arts’ (Nasdaq: ERTS) The Sims Online?. Starting
August, 28, 2003 and ending at midnight on September 1, 2003, Electronic Arts
will turn off The Sims Online’s “motives,” leaving the Sims free to simply hang
out with friends and party all weekend long. Normally in the game, Sims
characters need to “green up,” or maintain their motives, such as eating,
sleeping and showering, to maintain a happy Sims life, but not this weekend.
Get ready to live the life you were destined for – a life of leisure with no
errands or obligations. See how crazy things get when you jump into the game
