The Sims: Bustin' Out
N-Gage.com exclusive interview Friday with Virginia McArthur, producer at Electronic Arts for The Sims: Bustin' Out. The Sims: Bustin' Out for the N-Gage is scheduled for release later this month and promises N-Gage exclusive features not found in other versions of The Sims, such as Bluetooth multiplayer.

Interestingly, what was thought to be one of the more difficult aspects of porting to the N-Gage turned out to be an asset, McArthur said. "Because the screen is vertical rather than wide, we anticipated user-interface challenges but it's actually more eloquent, and enabled us to come up with better ideas for it."
