Generations - Official Trailer & Announcement!

Well, today we actually got an official trailer from EA, as well as quite a bit of info. Below is the new trailer:



There is an article at Gamespot, a new interview from CVG, and a new interview at GamePlanet

Some of the features included are:

Imaginary friends (quite likely the new "occult" creature)
Pranks
Lots of new playground equipment (spring animals, treehouse, hopscotch, sandbox, see-saw)
Useable strollers (Sims can push their toddlers around in them)
New Parties (Teen parties, bachelor/bachelorette parties with cake dancers, improved weddings, prom, graduation)
Costumes for kids with accompanying actions (ie the Godzilla type costume lets Sim kids smash blocks like they're city buildings)
Midlife Crises for adults (still not a whole lot about this)
Home Movies with new video camera object (possibly a new skill with this too, unconfirmed)
Gift Giving and Flower Giving
Memories
Scrapbooks
Teens can be grounded for misbehaving
Elders can now have canes
Improved Rumor/Gossip (sounds like you can even take incriminating pics and blackmail other Sims)
Dance Class
More Romantic Interactions (sitting on the ground gazing at the stars makes a comeback; looks like chemistry/attraction might be returning too, but it's unconfirmed; and something called "Romantic Reputations")
Daycare Profession

So yeah, looks like a pretty good pack as far as filling in some of the holes between Sims 2 and Sims 3. I'm hoping there's even more interactions and more family stuff, but I'm pretty pleased so far. Just hoping there's more toddler stuff added :)

The pack is slated to be released in June 2011.
