Maxis is serving up a preview of The Sims 3 engine with a pair of videos featuring a Sim Sarah Palin.
In the trailer embedded here on GP, the Republican VP candidate dances (in camouflage lingerie) at a rally. In a second video Palin tussles with her opposite number, Democrat Joe Biden.
John McCain and Barack Obama also appear. We enjoyed this little notation at the end of the trailers:
No candidates were injured during the making of this video.

E. Zachary Knight: That is absolutely nuts there. As bad an experience XBox Indie Games was, the problems weren't with the self published side of things. Forcing a publisher onto independent studios is not going to help.05/22/2013 - 10:43am

That was pretty funny. That's the first time I've heard a Sim-speak rap.

I thought this would be corny, but it was funny.

Re: The Sims 3 Shows Off with Sarah Palin vids
Too bad on the, no candidates were injured... I was hoping something happened where we would be required to have a relection.
EA supports the republican party though, one of the extremely few game companies that supports the republican party by the way.
