The Sims 3

EA has once again managed to please their big fans of The Sims series by releasing another sequel to the earlier releases of the series, The Sims 3.

Most of PC game players have known or sure are familiar with The Sims series, which simulates the reality in life and pack it all into one fun and joyful game. Like before, in this The Sims 3, players will be controlling their Sims through their everyday life and fulfill their needs. But The Sims 3 will offer the players remarkable differences from its prequels. One of the differences is that now the players will
have more customization options available for them in creating their Sims, from head to toe. Another difference is that no more loading will pop up on their screen while they move from one location to another. Instead, they will be driving cars or riding bicycles to the destination, this is one big change in The Sims series by EA thanks to the new game engine which took 3 years of development. This will, of course, increase the fun in playing The Sims 3. One minus point is that the game itself will now spend more time loading when it is launched in order to load the whole environment for the open world in The Sims 3.

More features added for creating the Sims

Now it is possible for players to freely explore all locations in The Sims 3

In The Sims 3, Sims will still have needs, moods etc. It is compulsory for players to fulfill the needs of their Sims while paying attention to their moods. Sims need to go to work, take a rest and even get married and have some children. Create and buy houses, furniture, electronic gadgets, kitchen sets and many more. Yes, this is typically The Sims. Still, players will have to be aware of burglars and now they will even have to be aware of female Sims, some of them could be burglars as well who will probably take ownership of your entire properties!

What? A female burglar???

In The Sims 3, players will see something called "moodlets" which informs them about what is affecting their Sims and for how long it's going to affect them. The Sims have wishes, too. Players may choose either to make the wishes of their Sims come true or just ignore them. But that will affect their Sims' moods for sure and their achievements in life. There is also a city park in The Sims 3 which serves as the gathering spot for Sims from all locations.

Like its prequels, the players of The Sims 3 might expect the expansion sets or add-on from EA for The Sims 3 which will give the game even richer customization options. The Sims 3 also has good quality graphics besides the gameplay itself.
