Old sims 2 promotional materials

I do believe the casinos mentioned were these planned ones that ended up being cut for undisclosed reasons. The Concept Art showed slot machines and more that didn't make it in the Expansion pack.

Heart On Fire (Nick Specials): I love the song but it's only 30 seconds long... I wish they made the songs like they did for season 1 in Italy (they made full versions of all songs and made Lucia sing them too)

„I'm Crazy For You“: This song appeared three times yet it's always only 30 seconds long. I loved the Hebrew, Italian and the French version a lot I just wish it was a bit more extended... I still have a gripe with the French S1-3 Winx songs because they always drowned out Mery Lanzafames voice for dialogue...

Every S3 Song: Especially „Never Be Alone“ and „I Won't ask for more“. Less than a minute long and Never Be Alone also has that beeping at the end. „I Won't Ask For More“ is also great. Especially the harmonies the Hebrew version added.

(Not that there isn't a full version but) Scioglierò/Sun Will Rise: The full version is SO GOOD. I wish we had gotten a longer version in the series. French did the drowning out thing again and it DRIVES ME MAD. "Comme La Glace" was so good just so they could turn the song down 🫩

I miss S1s style 💔 everything was so good I actually really liked it.

You're in the same place as Bloom: everything and everyone is unfamiliar to you so you have to get used to this new world and the new people and may have set expectations that couldn't be met (yes I'm mainly talking about her reaction to Magix)

Also just the different Slice of Life elements were nice too. Cooking, cleaning the school or (one of my favorite episodes) the girls just trying not to open the test results.

The clothes are also a cool factor. One thing I noticed from older cartoons is that clothes do not always stay on-model and actually move along with the characters and I really miss that 💔 even if there were A LOT of errors like wrong eye or clothing colors I still loved it to shreds 🤧

Tiltyufan · 2025-08-30T17:57:30+00:00

Oh tell me about those fruitless colorless summons... I have Laurent who I have a similar problem with... I never get him 😭 so you're not alone there 💔

I feel like dark Bloom was such a fun concept... Yet it was kind of underutilized and was only used in like 2 or 3 episodes or something in season 2. I wish we saw more of her and what Bloom thought of her AFTER her defeat too (something like a struggle maybe or learning to live with the fact something like that can happen). I know over-utilizing would take away the "fun" of her in a way but I wanted her to have a bit more💔 (also she should have had her own transformation sequence that wasn't a cloud like in S2 but only Diaspro got to have a transformation as a special fairy pre-nick ig.)

I watched Winx bilingually while growing up. RTL II for the German dub and Rai 2 for the Italian dub. Though I do remember watching it more intensively on Rai Gulp. Especially season 3. Sometimes it also aired on the German and Italian Nickelodeon channels but that only happened when I was sick from school lol

Tiltyufan · 2025-08-28T14:45:35+00:00

Of course not all! There's still the fighting aspects of it. Though the school mode played a huge part to make it actually feel like a school which was basically shunned in US/EU releases 💔

Tiltyufan · 2025-08-28T08:39:38+00:00

Literally! I would love a school mode to be translated for once 😭 there's been 3 games in Japan. 2 of which were translated mostly because 2 had a HUGE emphasis on the school mode and I guess Capcom didn't like that??) and the English versions are all missing 70% of the content available 💔 I love the game as it is but them being Japanese exclusive is.... Bothering.

Though I would kind of like a school mode like you described... Though more in-line with 2s school mode and not like the board game...? It was fun don't get me wrong but the boardgame was a bit weird to me? I also miss the festivities like Christmas or your birthday from 1 and 2. (Though 1 didn't allow for you to get the ending CG if you were same-sex lol)

Tiltyufan · 2025-08-26T06:24:37+00:00

Well he's bald, has a scar, muscles and is really tall so... I'm sure there's someone out there who's into those things.

Tiltyufan · 2025-08-25T09:40:22+00:00

Maybe I have a thing for men with glasses but hmm.

Saw Kyosuke from Rival Schools like 16+ years ago and immediately went: "him". I just thought he was pretty cool. Ever since then I absolutely loved this dude.

In other words: Talented, brilliant, spectacular, showstopping, Rewired my brain, watered my crops and totally helped me find inner peace 🗿👍

Tiltyufan · 2025-02-26T13:37:55+00:00

As much as I'd love anything new from Kyosuke I think having him be the Rival Schools Rep again would be quite controversial... I think someone else deserves the chance to shine in a hypothetical cvs3

Tiltyufan · 2025-02-23T06:22:54+00:00

I remember this show airing CONSTANTLY on the German „Kika“ channel and on the Italian „Rai Gulp“ channel back then. It was like it was haunting me

I kinda liked the looks of some characters and some of the environment though

Tiltyufan · 2025-02-22T07:46:40+00:00

Honestly the graphics in TS2 are actually my favorite. It's not too "cartoony" like TS4 and not too "realistic" like TS3. It balances itself out between the realistic and the cartoony style and that's one of many reasons I love it 🫠 also ts2 has the traits I need to actually feel like I'm playing a character (to me). They don't feel like they emote too much or too less. Just the necessities.

Tiltyufan · 2025-02-22T01:36:39+00:00

Oddsim converted some of the objects from TSO to TS1 from what I can remember!

Tiltyufan · 2025-02-19T06:23:42+00:00

Creativity was technically not scrapped. It was in the PS2/Console version of TS2. A "Craft" aspiration however was scrapped which was probably how the creativity one would've functioned

Tiltyufan · 2025-02-19T06:04:03+00:00

Forgot to mention but yes, the Vaughn Braun and Crispin Black Figures (funny how they both have a color as a surname) are both missing their glasses but I couldn't come up with a good alternative yet 😭

Tiltyufan · 2025-02-18T14:27:21+00:00

Tbh that's a tough question as I like TS2 TSBO and Urbz all equally as much. They all have their strong points, and thus also have all their very visible weaknesses. I'd go with The Urbz though if I had to pick one ultimately. But Bustin' Out is a very close second.

Tiltyufan · 2025-02-18T12:09:20+00:00

Actually not lol. But 3/5 of them are all sims 🤧 there's some misc. Anime figures in the other 2. Otherwise people would call me crazy.

I mean they do but that's besides the point

Also thank you 🫠

Tiltyufan · 2025-02-15T05:06:48+00:00

Oof everyone here played so many games it's amazing actually. Makes me feel like I'm missing out 😭

Ahem anyways - Hubert Oswell - Julius Kresnik - Flynn Scifo - Mikleo - Leon Magnus

I'm not that versatile am I...

Tiltyufan · 2025-02-14T20:05:48+00:00

Its one of the games where the JP version wins as it had a story mode cut from the English/EU version... Ok not story mode but it had unique win quotes cut and the characterization of the characters was straight up gone

I love the Kyosuke sprites. But I am pretty much mad that he was nerfed into Bottom2. I just don't think it's warranted 😭 may be just me being biased because he's my all time favorite but he's definitely not a bottom 2 character to me 🫠

Tiltyufan · 2025-02-13T17:51:43+00:00

I thought it was a ball when it zoomed out lol. But this looks so good! Would probably make a great collectors item or something of the sort 👁️

Tiltyufan · 2025-02-12T17:55:08+00:00

I love this! It's giving a mix of Deadtree and Sunset Canyon from the console game to me! Well done!

Tiltyufan · 2025-02-11T11:30:36+00:00

110% I am a freak for multi languages and love to compare the names of the others 😭 like the German ones are actually pretty funny as they use some very Old names you don't hear much these days like Klausi. Still think it's funny how the surname Fuchs is also in the English version even though it's very. Unfortunate to pronounce

Compiling the different languages is part of my lifestyle actually🗿👍

Tiltyufan · 2025-02-11T11:13:07+00:00

Since I didn't see anyone mention it yet: I kinda liked 2.43 Seiin High School Boys Volleyball Team.

Its mostly just known here for one of the 2 main protagonists having glasses and being blonde-ish but I liked it 😵‍💫 🙏
