The Sims: Vacation heads to the Mac

By Trey Walker, GameSpotPosted Jun 28, 2002 2:52 pm PT

Aspyr Media's Macintosh conversion of the best-selling virtual-life game expansion reaches the beta stage of development.

Aspyr Media has announced that it will release a Macintosh version of The Sims: Vacation, Electronic Arts' popular virtual-life game expansion. The expansion is currently in beta testing at Westlake Interactive, but no official release date has been announced.

The Sims: Vacation was created by Maxis, the studio that created The Sims, and released in March for the PC. The expansion pack adds a number of new features to EA's best-selling virtual-life game The Sims. Players can take their sims on a trip to three different locations--a snowy alpine area, a beach resort, and a forest campground--and watch them participate in a number of new activities, such as beach volleyball, snowboarding, fishing, and hunting for hidden treasure. For more information, take a look at our full review of the PC version of the expansion.
