REDWOOD CITY, Calif., February 13, 2003 - Electronic Arts (Nasdaq: ERTS) today announced plans to release this May The Sims™ Superstar, a new expansion pack to the top-selling PC game of all time, The Sims™. Players can now realize their fantasies of fame and fortune as they pursue the dream of being a Rock Star, Movie Star or a Supermodel and live the lifestyle of a celebrity. All new gameplay, new social interactions and a whole new in-game destination offer players an all access pass to the world of superstardom. In The Sims Superstar, The Sims are ready for their close up."The Sims have lived extreme lives, thrown outrageous parties, gone on hot dates, traveled to vacation destinations and owned pets. Now it's time for them to follow their dreams of making it big," said Jonathan Knight, Producer at EA's Maxis™ studio. "The Sims Superstar will let players experience the outrageous world of celebrity, Sims style." For the first time ever, players can follow their Sims to work and witness their pursuit of fame and fortune firsthand. Fledgling Sims start by signing with an agent and shuttling to Studio Town, a new and fully customizable destination that offers television and movie lots, spa locations, recording studios and fabulous fashion facilities. Once there, Sims can schmooze, network and name drop their way to stardom in the movies, music or fashion. Will your Sim be a flash in the pan or a living legend? Players can now track the sizzle of their Sims with an all new fame score. A new cast of comical characters are available to assist The Sims in their quest for celebrity. A fabulous fashion designer, a mega-hit record producer and a maniacal movie director are available for career critique. A capable butler, a savvy sushi chef, and a soothing masseuse will be on-call to administer to the every whim of a celebrity Sim. Life in the spotlight would not be complete without the glare of the paparazzi, the adoration of groupies, and the annoyance of an obsessed fan or two. This is all part of life in the spotlight in The Sims Superstar. Sims can become a celeb or just live like one. Fabulous new objects like a skydiving simulator, satellite dish, and a new art and furniture collection can turn an ordinary Sims abode into a magnificent and decadent manse. Sims in need of a day of indulgence and pampering can also enjoy the new day spa, complete with mud treatments, steam baths, Sim massages and an oxygen bar. Domestic staff is also available for hire so manicured Sims won't chap their hands with the drudgeries of household maintenance. Will your Sim become an icon or fade into the obscurity of bad dinner theater? Will they win a coveted Simmy award or be regulated to personal hygiene commercials? In The Sims Superstar, you are the idol maker.

Summary: This Should Be Great
Review: i really hope this expansion pack is gonna be good. from my understanding it will be released may 19th. a cool thing about this is in unleashed you already got career tracks to make you famous but not from a world prospective. this new expansion pack gives you the chance to be a hit record producer, a television acotr, a movie actor, or even a model i think. ...also there is going to be a fully costumizable world for your sims in the sims superstar like hot date and vacation, superstar allows you to take your sims to another land where there are lots for movie houses, sets, television screening(something like that) and spas cool styff like that. also you can finally have a heat sweater machine! should be very cool. you can have a mud bath and from the screenshot it looks like they even put pickles on thier eyes! lol i really hope this helps anyone who is just learning about this new upcomming expansion pack. i knew unleashed wouldn't be the last one as people really thought!

Review: I have been a Sims fan ever since I learned how to master it from my father and thanks to him I have known how to create my own families as easy as 123. Sims Superstar is one of my fave Sims expansion packs because you can make friends with some stars such as Avril Lavigne to the late Marilyn Monroe and meet some new and inspiring friends on the way to becoming a superstar. While some parts of the game are tricky for me I got the hang of it easily. It is now one of my favorite games that i love to play all the time. Here are some celebrities that should be made into downloadable Sim Celebrities, Ronald Reagan
Aaliyah
Lisa Left Eye Lopes
Barry White
Bill Clinton
Tim Mcgraw
Faith Hill
Dr. Phil
Donald Trump
Regis Philbin
Selena
Kathie Lee Gifford
Kelly Ripa
If you are a fan of American Idol and a A Sims nut like me you shall not miss this and i hope reading my review may help you,
Thank you for your time

Review: Another great sims expansion pack. There are new objects and people. Go to Studio Town to earn your fame and a spot in the top. Build a recording studio or a outdoor concert. You start of doing boring karaoke, but then progress to do recordings and music videos. Become a superstar. You can go to spas and have an obsessed fan (which get's annoying). Another great job my Maxis. Check out these games: "The Sims" or "The Sims Deluxe"
"Living Large"
"House Party"
"Hot Date"
"Vacation"
"Unleashed"
"Makin Magic" AND slated to release in September 2004, The Sims 2. If you buy "Makin Magic", you will get a sneak preview to The Sims 2. It's awesome.... check it out. BUY THIS GAME!

Summary: Wow
Review: I have every single expansion pack. This is the only sim expansion pack where you follow your sim to work. It is a tough job. Can your sim handle the pressure? A better question is Can you?

Summary: Been There, Done That but to No Avail...
Review: I fell for the very flashy (I own the Collector's Edition), orange cover art of this game, and I completely bought everything it said to me, but I've been a bit disappointed. The Sims Superstar can start to lag and be very tedious especially once your Sim has achieved 2 stars. The modelling for swimwear and winterwear is endless, and I always hope in vain after every shoot that the chart would be upgraded for my Sim to have 2 and a half stars. I'm still in the midst of playing it and none of my Sims are superstars yet.
I recommend you to install this expension pack or if not, sign up with the Talent Agency only if your Sims already have high points in Creativity, Body and Charisma for you to go into the nuts and bolts straight away. It's almost impossible to work on it after you've signed up with the Talent Agency as Body for instance tires Sims out easily, and they tend to sleep the whole day away, and once they wake up, its their Fun that's lacking which takes half a day to satisfy, soon its back to their Energy bar dropping again and there won't really be a time to go to Studio Town which isn't all fine and dandy since postponing trips might cause your Sims to drop or lose star power all together.
Also, I recommend your Sim having a roommate. It's the social bar that's usually close to being empty through frequent visits to Studio Town, as other sims ranking higher than yours won't bother talking to you and other sims who are ranking low would only wantto hug you or ask for autographs. The fame-seeking sims are usually tired to bother going all the way to Downtown just to exchange a few words with their friends which could boost the social relationship immensly, while having a roommate is much easier. A quick hug or kiss will do, and the social bar's already a pale green.
I got off well with this expansion pack, and it was fun to watch my Sim progressing from a nobody to a somebody, but it's been quite stagnant for a while, which is boring. Still, it's not bad, maybe a little patience is required, that's all.

Summary: Not as fun as I thought it would be
Review: I know everyone has favorites in The Sims world. I enjoy the Hot Date expansion pack best, though I've learned to appreciate the House Party expansion and the Unleashed expansion (keep me away from those pets). But like the Vacation expansion pack, I found this one to be really undesirable.
The worst part? Because you actually work in "sim time" you never get a moment's rest from your sim. And home life becomes secondary to keeping up with all your famous friends.
