BeyondSims previously SimPrograms is a video game news fansite specializing in The Sims and Spore News and Content. The site was founded in 2000 by Judson Hudson. SimPrograms features news on The Sims 3, The Sims 2, MySims, SimAnimals, SimCity, and other Sim games. Its sister site, also run by the same administration is SporePrograms which is related to Spore news. The site was featured in GamesRadar's list of "sites any The Sims 3 player should visit". SimPrograms attended a special Spore community-journalism day at Electronic Arts campus in California. This was pre-release marketing for Spore. SimPrograms and SporePrograms are both listed on the Spore.com website's fansite directory. SimPrograms has also had many exclusives from EA including a Spore Hero interview with the developers alongside other fansites Sporedum and SporeOperations. In May 2010 it was announced that the podcast format at that time would be dropped and replaced with new material, such as stories, tutorials, etc.
