Sims 3 – An Unbiased Review.

July 10th, 2009 Mike No comments

This post is a little about the game Sims 3 for PC. I got this game recently, and despite the $50 price tag, it was worth it. A lot of different elements from previous Sims games were added, such as the ability to “Garden”- from Sims 2 seasons- and also the ability your Sims now have to “collect” things- e.g. rocks, insects, seeds, etc. The community lots are still there from previous Sims games, you can’t build on a community lot, nor can you see inside the actual building at what’s going on- two features I think are lacking from this new installment. An expansion pack is in order, as there are still some things missing-e.g. going to college, pets, running your own business, etc, but it’s hard to say what Maxis is going to be releasing for this series in the future.

In addition to the nice things about this game, the “Style creator” lets you customize anything. and I mean anything. want a plaid paint job on your sports car? go for it! A pink guitar? No problem! This is one of the things that I would have to say that Maxis got very creative on, and I think the style creator is a neat idea in and of itself. Instead of downloading patterns and taking up more space tho, Maxis needs to come out with a “Style package” for the Sims 3, and put new style patterns on a CD that nobody has seen before.

There is so much that can be done with and to this game, that I can’t wait to see what Maxis has in store next. I’ll give it 8/10
