The Sims 2: Pets preview -- virtual pets ahoy!
Pick from a cat, dog, bird or guinea pig to add as a new addition to your Sims life. We never were big fans of virtual pets because we would rather have our own to cuddle in real life, but, this game sounds like you will have to do a lot of the things you would in real life to keep your animal happy, clean and bringing in the bacon by having a job. Yes, the PC version of The Sims 2: Pets allows your animal to make money by being a movie star, rescue animal or as a member of an elite security pets corp. Too bad that won't be on the DS version. The DS version will let you create and manage a pet care center. Treating the animals in your care lovingly helps you unlock items and such. You can also help others pick out pets and clothes/accessories for their new friends. The Sims 2: Pets will be available October 17 for the DS. We would get into the whole trying to take a piece of the virtual pets franchise pie thing but that's just another messy can of worms. On a side note -- Is it us or does the cat in the above picture look really... freaked out? Either that or really pissed off. Either way, that cat looks weird. [Via Go Nintendo]
