So the Sims 4 might have already been announced, but that doesn't mean Maxis isn't still pumping content into the TS3.

It seems we'll be able to build space-thirsty, completely unseaworthy multi-storey houseboats, and slap our runt Sims in on mop-the-deck duty. Meanwhile, we'll also be able to run entire resorts, from five-star straw-hut palaces to dingy sheds with broken toilets.
The Sims 3: Island Paradise is out June 25 (which just so happens to be my birthday, so guess where I'll be celebrating? Hint: not a real-life resort). These two screens show off some additional tiki-themed funtimes, although oddly, they leave me wondering where the tofu's at .
