I only see the cover art, no link to more. I wouldn't mind some matching kitchen and bathroom stuff. What's the bet they still don't make matching sets of anything?

There's also a lot of text (I copypasted so errors are EAxis' fault, not mine):

My mother would beg to differ.  She's been wanting them for so long she'd probably do unspeakable things to whoever bought and installed them for her.

Isn't there already a hanging pot rack for Seasons country kitchen set?

Finally we are getting a new dishwasher for the first time since base game after all 7 EPs are done, pfffft.

Well, honestly, what would you want out of a DISHWASHER that you can't attain with a simple recolor?

I meant the scarcity of kitchen objects in general in all previous EPs. Actually I was going to mention fridge, but then I remembered that Uni came with two new fridges. (If you count the Wornable fridge as 'new', that is.) I just don't understand why EAxis didn't include more kitchen objects in previous EPs. Instead of making a bunch of useless decorative objects like Gorilla statues, they could make just one nice, useful fridge.

Because this is EA.

You can imagine the meetings.

"We could include some useful things, like corner baths and counters that link up to island units"
"Nah - our demographics show that what players really, really want is another ton of enormous polycount decorative crap to strew around and make the game run incredibly slowly"
"You're so right.  I know!  Let's give them an enormous Llama statue in multiple horrible colours which will randomly kill sims who try to pet it"
"Stuff useful appliances, go with the exploding Llama"

Does EA Thailand count for anything?

Only if you live in Thailand. How else can you view the page?

Code:
		pageBGColor = '#000000';
if (page == 'register_07' || page == 'profile_07'){
if (countryID == 5){
pageHeight = 1647;
pageBGColor = '#C5CBC9';
}

I want, simply because decorating bathrooms and kitchens are my favorite things. They are the only rooms in a Sims house that get me inspired. Maybe now we'll get a stove that works in a kitchen island. It would make my Good Eats Kitchen moar accurate because I won't have to have another stove for the sims to cook on.

Island cook tops and wall insert ovens would be shiny (want! in real life too).  As this is the bork pool however, I would have to suggest that insertion of wall ovens will cause all sorts of "objects can't intersect other objects" problems, and probably bork sim routing through the kitchen (and it's all L&P anyway).

Given that SPs never offered any new kinds of objects so far, I think they will be just plain ordinary stoves.

If new pie menus for fridges/stoves/appliances are added in the FreeTime, they will be unavailable in the L&P SP objects, even though the SP is going to be released 2 months AFTER FT. (Like Teen computer and stereo without BV function)

Okay, *that* sounds fun. Also right up my alley. You have given me renewed purpose in watching Good Eats (as if it was needed). Do you have an Alton Brown Sim? *g*

...I'm now having evil thoughts about making an Anthony Bourdain Sim and a Rachel Ray Sim and watching them go at it.

*laughs* No, I don't I just loved his kitchen so I gave one of my sims his kitchen. It would be nice if these Kitchen and Bath SP has a fridge that has the freezer on the bottom like his.

It wouldn't be too hard to make one though, his face sorta lends itself to the sims...

Well, it's rather obvious that not a damn thing will match. Not even the "sets" of new stuff they add. They've already proved themselves very good at doing that.

It sends you to pogo.com where there is a game for "free trial" or $19.99 purchase.

Let's see. I spy with my little eye one more random phone call for our sims to receive ...much like the ones kids can get when they get straight As or the random simolian rewards. I see one new job and one useless object that, oh goody, can have the aliens rape our male sims on command and ants that escape and do less then the cockroaches. I foresee that the only things that happen with escaped ants are the usual "stomp" and "spray commands". For ants in the farm it will be "watch" and "shake" ...the sims will then laugh after they shake it or feel bad about it depending on their personality.
Looks like they couldn't figure out what to give knowledge sims other then decorative objects.

There will obviously be no "Become highest level Oceanographer" LTW.

Wait, lifetime benefit? Like, you get your LTW and get a nice, shiny reward for it?

Which is apparently getting raped by aliens...

We'll, at least they get a Koi pond for reaching the top of the oceanographer career track. ...wasn't there something like that in sims1? You could get fish food and feed the fish? Damn it, now I want to start the old game up and find out.

Thank you for reminding me, Morriganrant.

The koi will die very rapidly. In fact, you will be surprised if you ever manage to keep them alive.

Or, alternatively, koi pond will be useless decorative object that has fish that most of us can not see. Much like fish tank fish or seasons fish.
