Aiss Reviews The Sims 3

Producer Woman | 13:29 UK time, Monday, 1 November 2010

games are huge in fact The Sims 3 became the number 1 best-selling PC title in 2009. The game allows you to create your own little world and control the lives of your characters within it. You can make your Sim fall in love, give them an amazing body - whatever you want.

You get rewarded when your Sim achieves certain milestones, and it's this tinkering which makes the game insanely addictive.

The graphics are great - like a sort of technicolour life-like cartoon. There are endless options as to how you can customize your Sim - I spent a good half an hour making an almost exact look-a-like of someone I didn't like and then dressing them really badly. Yeah, I'm that sad!

The transfer of Sims 3 from PC to console has left most the features intact. The only slight downside were the loading times, which are noticeably slower.

The designers have also added a new feature to the console version. You can unlock new "Karma Powers" that can be used on your Sims. Gifts such as "get lucky", "instant beauty" and "epic fail." will keep your keep your inner megalomaniac amused for hours!
Although I like The Sims - it will eat up a lot of your time and patience. So the fact the loading times were a little slow did frustrate me a bit.

But this game has great longevity; there are so many different things you can do with the characters you create - and I for one won't judge you for giving your ex really bad karma!
