The Sims 2 - Machinima




Machinima is the use of computer game animation to create movies. With that said, this was a current news post on Gamespot that might've been hard to notice. (below is a quote of http://www.gamespot.com)

"It seems that having the title "publisher of the best-selling PC game franchise of all time" isn’t enough for Electronic Arts. When it comes to The Sims, building the brand never stops.
With that brand-building spirit in mind, the series received some added weight behind it today."


"This morning, EA announced it was partnering with Rooster Teeth Productions to create movies based on The Sims 2 game. These movies will employ the use of the onboard tools that are available to all owners of the game."

"Setting an example for The Sims 2 gamers who are interested in creating machinima (wherein games are used to create digital videos), EA has teamed with Rooster Teeth to create a series of machinima that will be posted on a dedicated Web site, http://www.strangerhood.com/.
The first movie from Rooster Teeth went live on the site this morning."
