original game and this autumn’s MySims Kingdom. Players have really connected
with the characters and now we are giving them two completely new and exciting
experiences. We believe that MySims Party and MySims Racing, are great ways to
couple the creativity and humor players love about the franchise with great
multi-player arcade gameplay.”
