Twenty Simlish Videogame Posters for your Young Gaming Enthusiasts! (In two flavors)

March 30, 2010: I uploaded the mesh from Sims2Play because the site is not available anymore.


These are two different sets of "simlish" video game posters: One is made of pictures of the video games' "original characters" as Sims, and the other features Sims from the pre-made Maxis Neighborhoods disguised as these characters. If you download both sets, you'll end up with 40 new posters, but I guess most of you will stick with just one option. Your sim kids won't have a reason to not decorate their rooms ever again! ;)




The posters are recolors of a custom mesh. Why? Because I wanted them to be available for people with any game configuration and sadly, none of the base game options suited my pictures without distorting the posters. Besides, those who own a Mac, like my youngest sister for example, wouldn't use posters had I used a mesh from FT or AL.

The mesh was made by Shoukeir from Sims2Play and can be downloaded here because the site is no longer available.


In the following pictures, the top poster is from the ORIGINAL CHARACTER SET, while the bottom one is the MAXIS MATCH SET (and I'll be describing which sims are on each poster too). As per MTS2's rules, I'm only including the first two pictures as part of this text, but you can see the rest of them at the thumbnails attached to the thread.
