Pros Absolutely love the customization abilities!
Cons Too many Sims, not enough time. :)
Recommended it? Yes

The Sims 3 is by far the best Sims game yet! I've played The Sims and even The Sims 2 but they don't compare to this one. I was so excited for this game to come out and bought it on the release date.

The customization is amazing. You can customize everything from the way your Sims looks to... Read full review »

I have been a fan of the Sims series since I started playing video games. I've played all of them, other than a few for held hand systems. In my opinion, The Sims 3 is the best. When you describe it, it sounds pointless. You take control of/create a family. You get them a house, job, furniture. You... Read full review »

Pros Good for first time Sims players
Cons Without improvement really
Recommended it? Yes

Requirements and installation:
Laptops work slower with the Sims 3. The Sims 3 for Windows will run on Vista (SP1) or XP (SP2). If you're running Vista, you need at least 1.5G of RAM. For XP, you need 1.0G of RAM. Installing the Sims 3 was quicker and easier than it was for the Sims 2.

The very first sims was an amazing game that was like no other, as they went on they kept getting better and the sims 3 is a great example of that. With so much more to do, more things to build and a better story to play, no game is ever the same! Read full review »

I've been a fan of The Sims franchise for years, way back to the original Sims 1 games. I then moved onto the sims 2 and own all the expansion and stuff packs along with several gigabytes worth of community created content.

The Sims 3 is beyond most other life simulation game I've seen on the market.

Introduction
I was very happily surprised when I first started to play "The Sims", and (after a few expansions were released to the successor) I enjoyed "The Sims 2". Having that said, I must say that I always felt like the base game (that is, with no expansions installed) was always missing... Read full review »
