Request: The Sims - Goopy Carbonara

Despite my love of pasta/spaghetti, I’ve never made carbonara in my life. I’m mostly familiar with it coming in a powdered form in packets that you add milk to, with the result being more oddly acidic than creamy or delicious. I also understand that this is possibly the most bastardised recipe in Italian history, and in the effort of gaming authenticity I’ll be destroying carbonara once again by using cream and an onion, as is a mandatory inventory staple for any Sim.

Please make sure you have a smoke alarm installed before going any further, and don’t get distracted by a sudden urge to use the bathroom - the results could be disastrous! If a Sim can master this classic by Level 2, then so can anyone (or so you’d hope).

This recipe serves 2-3.

What you will need: A large pot, a large frying pan/skillet, a colander and a grater.

Ingredients:

250g / 9 oz Spaghetti/Bucatini

2 Tablespoons Olive Oil

1 Small White Onion (Diced)

140g / 1 Cup Smoked Pancetta (Cubed)

25ml / .85 fl oz. White Wine (Optional)

2 Large Eggs (Room Temperature)

5 Tablespoons Percorino Cheese (Finely Grated)

40ml / 1.35 fl oz. Double/Heavy Cream

Fresh Black Pepper

Fresh Parsley (Chopped)

Making the Goopy Carbonara:

1. Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil and cook your spaghetti ‘al dente’.
2. Meanwhile, heat a the olive oil in a large frying pan on a medium-high heat. Add the pancetta and fry it quickly until it’s lightly crisped. If you’re adding the wine, do so now and cook until evaporated.
3. By now your spaghetti should be done, strain it off but keep the water it cooked in to thin out the sauce later. Add the spaghetti to the pancetta and onion on a low heat and mix well.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg, cream, grated cheese and pepper together. Take the frying pan off the heat and add the cream mixture, some chopped parsley and toss until the spaghetti is evenly coated.
5. Use the spaghetti water to thin out the sauce as desired, then ‘Call Household’ to the meal.

This Goopy Carbonara would be an incredible final meal for any Sim destined to enter a pool sometime later today, only to have the ladder mysteriously disappear… like I know so many of you are planning to do. For shame.

Bethesda Softworks and Shinji Mikami Team Up For Survival Horror

It’s been confirmed that Shinji Mikami (director of God Hand and Resident Evil 4) and his newest studio, Tango Gameworks, are working on a titled codenamed “Zwei” and that it will be a return to Mikami’s horror roots.

Tango Gameworks is a subsidiary of ZeniMax Media, who also owns Bethesda Softworks, who is confirmed to be helping Tango Gameworks out with the development of this game. Though the images above are not confirmed concept art, they did appear towards the beginning of last year on Tango’s official site. It’s possible they might not be related at all to the current project, but the few images available are still pretty creepy.

“Some were cheering for Drake and Elena (and who wouldn’t everyone wants to see the guy get the girl), but we all know who the real star couple of Uncharted 3 was: Nathan Drake and Victor “Sully” Sullivan. From the witty back and forth conversations the two would have while trekking through long lost civilizations to the heart-string pulling realization that without Sully there may have never been Drake.

In between the edge of your seat action Drake and Sully will have you laughing at one moment while they bicker like an old couple and bring you to the verge of tears the next during a heartfelt exchange; it’s clear who the real winners are.”
