The first of the pre-order bonuses has been revealed.
If you pre-order from either Amazon.com or EAStore.com , you will receive the "GlowStation 90XD computer" for your game.

The official German website has revealed a further four pre-order bonuses along with the Glowstation that we already knew about.
http://www.diesims2.de/redemption.view_page.asp?id=31

The new additions include 2 expensives tvs, a new stereo system and a new chair.

Quite an impressive collection of pre-order bonuses this time, nice to have a selection of functional objects as opposed to purely decorative ones for a change.  Smile

Now let's hope that by some miracle that they're compliant with the new Freetime functions too... But we'll see huh?  Rolling Eyes

(Be even better if they were included with Apartment Life to begin with too... However that's the purpose of this site, to ensure that we all get them anyway.  Smile  )

Thank you, I did not notice that because I was too busy the last few days preparing for an important exam, so no time to visit sims.de

I wonder why the computer was translated so badly.
to glow means glühen in German, however the Computer is called Brüllstation, which means Growlstation. Not much sense, I think.

I would not get my hopes up about Freetime Functions... I am pretty sure EA knows about MATYs (Lord Darcy amongst others) work in updating and converting these items and simply lets them do the dirty work.

Of course I'm not optimistic about the Freetime functions being included, seen expansion pack functions left out of objects a few too many times now.

As for allowing others to update their objects, you must remember that technically none of us should have these objects unless we pre-ordered them, that includes their updated counterparts. So going by that belief, EA/Maxis should endeavour to keep their objects updated for those that received them as pre-order bonuses.

Am I reading this right?

http://thesims2.br.ea.com/pages.view_page.asp?id=441
http://www.fnac.com.br/Product.as...mp;idDept=4&src=&res=1024

My Brazilian isn't that great... Lol.
But it seems to me that if you pre-order in Brazil, you get *all* 5 pre-order bonuses.  Shocked

It's bad enough to split up 5 pre-orders across 5 different stores but to allow one country to have all of them...
Well how can EA justify that as fair?  Shocked

Seems so. On the other hand, the text mentions several shops.

Hopefully someone turns up who understands Portuguese better than us.

Well in this link I supplied above:
http://www.fnac.com.br/Product.as...mp;idDept=4&src=&res=1024

The shop listing shows the expansion and all 5 pre-orders on offer.  Confused

Yes that's correct, according to the store:
"Any client who pre-orders the game will be entitled to the Special Sims Objects (...) The links and the codes will be sent by e-mail, etc...."

and that's only for the store you mentioned. I don't know about the other ones but I think they have them too.

Btw thanks for posting the info here elkster. Wink
