Unless they come out with a sims 2 online, Nothing will compare to the orig the sims online. I played TSO since June 2005 and will miss it terribly. Some of us are very angry and frustrated at the closing of TSO, but more of us are saddened and heartbroken over the huge loss we will take in.... friends, long hours and days of skilling and earning simoleons and working hard in building our creations on our Lots. EA made a big mistake shutting down TSO/EA Land, this has caused many of us not trust EA and will have a hard time trusting another online game again from them.... Farewell TSO/EA Land - you will be forever be missed and never forgotten!

Great post,

The business of the online games industry is a complex one, requiring the input and integration of many variables -- people, business conditions, product goals, and more -- to create, implement, and distribute a successful online game. :)

I must say, logging into the The Sims Carnival after playing The Sims Online was a big disappointment to me. In my opinion it was not what I expected at all. All it is - is a bunch of Flash games in a website... there's already a bunch of those out there! Why not make Sims Carnival another similar to sims online?? But have different money objects? Sorry, but as huge of a EA fan that I am... I will not participate in sims carnival, it was too disappointing. TRY AGAIN!

I think that games can actually be used as a method of education. I would say that this new creative endeavor from The Sims is quite a commendable one.
