The Sims 3 (PC)

A few months ago I did my end of year tests at school. When I got my results back it turned out I'd done quite well and my Nan told me she'd ordered The Sims 3 from www.amazon.co.uk for doing well. When she told me I went barmy out of excitement because I'd wanted the game for a while. She had to pre-order it because it hadn't come out yet. It came on a Saturday, luckily for me because I go to my Nan's house on a Saturday. - The Game Itself. The Sims 3 came out in shops in the UK on June 5th 2009 selling 1.4 million copies in its first week out! The game was originally supposed to be released on February 20th 2009 but was delayed. The game was ...  Read the complete review

What a long way Sims has come. The graphics are phenomenal. I am actually impressed by how much of an improvement the graphics are from the Sims 2, a game I also fell in love with. The game play is flawless, it is nonstop and I love how the whole neighborhood ages with your Sim. Although this feature can be turned off, I don't see why anyone would want to turn it off. That feature adds another dimension to the game, it makes the game deeper. I also read that alot of people are complaining because there arent enough items to chose from, again, the items in the game is not a problem. Considering you can personalize their items by color, etc. lets you have more options ...  Read the complete review

I used to be a big fan of The Sims and The Sims 2 in my school days! I really enjoyed them but I guess I just kind of grew out of them and played them less and less until I'd almost forgotten about them. I don't know what made me go out and buy The Sims 3 last week, it simply popped into my head so I bought a copy and had a play about with it. Installation was fairly simple, I got a little bored and impatient waiting as it took a bit longer than most other games but I guess that's just because it's a big game with a lot of content. First impression of the game was good, didn't take long at all to load up and get playing. First difference I noticed from The ...  Read the complete review

I bought The Sims 3 as I had enjoyed playing past Sims games. The box advertises that the game comes with free SimPoints, which allow you to buy additional clothing/furniture etc online. At first I thought this was going to be another way of them making money (like with past expansion packs), however there have been some free items made available, as well as a number of items created by other members of The Sims community which you do not have to pay for. The game allows you to customise the colour and texture of pretty much everything, so for somebody like me who enjoys playing the game but isn't so good at the creative side, this is ...  Read the complete review

Since the beginning of Sims I have always been a fan. There was a long wait for Sims 3 but when I finally started seeing the adverts for it I couldn't help but get excited. There had been a few issues with Sims 2 that had annoyed me and I was hoping they would get addressed in Sims 3. I am pleased to say they did. The first major change that has been made is the ability to walk around the area, you don't need to call a taxi every time you want to go somewhere and you can just walk next door to your neighbours house and ring the doorbell to invite yourself round! If you have enough money you can also buy your own car and drive yourself to wherever you want to ...  Read the complete review
