Your Sims better get their umbrellas ready and throw on a nice pair of galoshes with a rain coat to prepare for the months ahead!  Sims in town will notice new...

  • Electronic Arts and Maxis have over their set of expansion packs for The Sims 3, attempted to integrate community into the new feature additions of each pack – from The Sims 3 Ambitions which threw in careers you could undertake at different Sims homes and The Sims 3 Showtime which in part replicated The Sims Superstar and allowed you to undertake three forms of celebrity jobs to put on community performances and so forth. The first Seasons expansion pack was in The Sims 2, and proved to be a rather disappointing pack overall which just added a few new items and the...

  • Personally, I have never been a big follower of The Sims Stuff Packs for either TS2 or TS3 – being one who appreciates the design of custom content and game mods (Although I do have a collection of almost every TS1, 2 and 3 expansion pack….). Either way, the next instalment in the series due out in January is The Sims 3: Master Suite Stuff. Luxurious master bedroom and bath décor—plus romantic intimate wear! Home is where the heart is! Whether your Sims relax in a bubble bath in their luxurious bathroom, enjoy some down time in their exquisitely furnished bedroom, or wear new...

  • While the other companies were a bit constrained with time, EA Games managed to secure an entire hour slot to tease all their latest games to us. They focused on a variety of games from their more popular titles Eg. Battlefield 3, to some of their still very well known but more all-ages titles such as The Sims Social (Regardless of if most ‘The Sims’ games hold M ratings, I still consider them family friendly). They also won in my opinion, the title for best trailer with real life intergration, by having the entire presentation arena turned into a pseudo-warzone....
