The Sims 3 sees the return of The Sims, which is great news for every PC gamer. The game that first opened up the world of video games to a wider audience is back, going beyond being just a virtual dollhouse to a complete interactive neighbourhood. The basic concept is still the same though, as you create your own computerised family and help them in achieving their dreams.
The Sims 3 - for Mac and PC
The Sims 3 sees the return of The Sims, which is great news for every PC gamer. The game that first opened up the world of video games to a wider audience is back, going beyond being just a virtual dollhouse to a complete interactive neighbourhood. The basic concept is still the same though, as you create your own computerised family and help them in achieving their dreams.
Instead of just dealing with one house at a time though, your whole Sims town is part of one continuous map, with neighbours going about their business independently. Likewise your own family can explore at will and interact with any and all buildings and people.
The Sims 3 includes many features from the The Sims 2 expansions from the off, including personal inventories, pets, private cars, restaurants and gardening.
