 Lots of fun September 7, 2010
Peace (Michigan, USA)
Different enough from Sims 2 to make it worth the purchase. Very customizable.
Limited control of your sims at work/school. Integrated town, good story progression.
Collecting seems out of place. Imo, it should have been left out.
 best game ever! September 5, 2010

this is the best video game i have ever played! interesting, graphically beautiful, and quite involved. once you figure out the moves you are on your way to fun, fun, fun. keeps me from housework!
Fun, but better with expansions September 3, 2010
Vena (The Valley, Oregon)
I like the Sims 3 base game. I've been a Sims fan for sometime and unlike some other players I'm rather fond of the story progression. Sure it has some hitches, it is annoying to have your Sims randomly marry someone, but I'm the sort who has one family that I play for a long time, so that's not a huge issue for me.
However, I really dislike the faces on most of the Sims. They are "pudding faced" as I call them. Very flat, bland, fat faced. I wish EA would fix this.
Overall a good game, though, I think. Entertaining, at least.

I purchased this product on Amazon.com. We recieved this product in the mail as usual, no delays. We had trouble downloading this game on to our computer with much difficulty. we then purchased a brand new PC and proceded to download this game on the new computer. Now the game sits because it freezes up every two minutes...Not fun at all!!! Three teenagers, thumbs down. One mom, out some more money. No Thank You.
Better than I expected August 25, 2010

I played Sims 1 a long time ago and it got old really fast. I hated how you had to tell them to do everything, and they got depressed extremely fast. I love all of the new features and the customizations. This version is WAY better. I figured out if I make the character a work-a-holic clean-freak then I pretty much don't have to tell them to do much at all, and it builds life points really fast. I cannot play this game too long or I feel a bit like my brain is starting to numb, but it's a good escape for a couple of hours a week. Enjoyable!
