==The Two Maxis Studios==
It has been brought to my attention that both [http://forum.thesims3.com/jforum/posts/list/210/526460.page#8235689 SimGuruGraham] and [https://twitter.com/#!/SimGuruRyan/status/177093000835506176 SimGuruRyan] have both stated that EA Redwood Shores/The Sims Studio has been renamed Maxis or Maxis Redwood Shores. Similar to Maxis Emeryville. As such, it seems the first Sims 3 game to include the Maxis name in the credits is Master Suite Stuff. Also, most EA sites and Press Sites now label Maxis as the dev of The Sims 3 games. Upon further investigation by admins,mods and other editors, I feel that the Sims 3 pages should reflect this, starting with [http://info.ea.com/product.asp?s=3127 Master Suite Stuff]. Thank The Watcher that the Maxis name is once again associated with the main Sims franchise.[[User:The Black Scorpion|The Black Scorpion]] 22:37, May 5, 2012 (UTC)

SimsDomination: @SimGuruGraham Which is the correct name: Maxis Redwood or The Sims Studio?
SimGuruGraham: .@SimsDomination We are The Sims Studio. There's no such thing as "Maxis Redwood". There's the Maxis development studio in Emeryville, CA, and there's the Maxis label - a division of EA that contains The Sims Studio (with locations at Redwood Shores and EA Salt Lake) and the Maxis studio.

== EA Maxis ==
The Sims Studio was fully integrated with Maxis. Maxis is now the main developer of The Sims series again. Maxis Redwood doesn't exist as far as I know. Maxis is based in Emeryville; The Sims Studio is based in the EA Redwood Shores campus (and was re-integrated with Maxis, so it is part of Maxis technically), EA Salt Lake (in Salt Lake City), and Maxis Helsinki in Finland. All of this is part of the "EA Maxis" logo. I have not seen the term "Maxis Redwood" used anywhere outside TSW - only Maxis Emeryville. What's with the tangle EA made here? --'''[[:User:K6ka|k6ka]]''' ([[:User talk:K6ka|talk]] | [[:Special:Contributions/K6ka|contribs]]) 02:05, May 24, 2014 (UTC)
