GamesOnNet: The Sims 3 Review

The Sims is one of those game series with rare universal appeal. Some like to use the games to create neat little houses, others like to develop families and micromanage every aspect of their existence, and then there are those miscreants who like to invite other Sims over and build walls around them to starve them to death in revenge for calling during nap time. Five years and 16 expansion packs since the last major release, EA is finally moving on to The Sims 3. EA Redwood Shores took over developmental duties for the third Sims title while series creator Maxis worked on other things, but that's not a bad thing. 4.5/5
