Sims 3 due out in June
February 4, 2009 by Tech-Marky
Filed under Video Games
Despite the fact that EA recently announced laying off about 1,100 employees, they also had some good news to report: The Sims 3 will be in stores by June 2. Sims 3 is another upgrade of the Will Wright franchise that has become one of the best-selling video games of all time with about 100 million units sold.
New features of Sims 3 are a seamless neighborhood where a player can visit neighbor’s homes and explore surroundings. In short, it’s like stepping out on the street in your own neighborhood, where you can run into anyone and talk about anything.
Another update is the new customizable Sim character creator. It allows the player to choose even more detailed facial features, including skin tone, hair color and style, eye shape and color, as well as clothing and accessories. Also included is a personality traits system that allows more realistic Sims with traits of brave, artistic, loner, perfectionist, klepto, romantic, clumsy, paranoid, and more. A player can also mix several of these traits together to create a Sim that is very unique. Customization is also a key factor in designing a Sims dream house. A player can change floors to dƒÂ©cor, shirts to sofas, wallpaper to window shades.
In addition to the many customizable options, one of the biggest changes that Sims 3 plans to make is a new gameplay that EA describes as rewarding and quick to play. I don’t really have more details on that, really, but you can read more details about all the new features on the Sims 3 Website.
I’m sure that there are some who are reading this who are die-hard Sims addicts who are going to be waiting on pins and needles until Sims 3 is finally on their PC. Just to let you know, versions of Sims 3 are also going to be available for the Mac, iPhone, and iPod Touch later in the summer.
Stumble It!

Lisa on Fri, 29th May 2009 10:31 am
i think that the sims 3 should allow push chairs/prams , playgroup, todders’/babys can go in the car …car seat?
kaitlin on Sat, 30th May 2009 6:48 am
WHAT I THINK SHOULD HAPPEN IN THE SIMS 3 IS THAT YOU CAN GROUND YOUR KIDS AND TEENS. YOU SHOULD BEABLE TO KIDNAP TODDLERS,TEENS,BABIES. YOUR KIDS SHOULD HAVE BOSTER SEATS. YOUR TODDLERS GET CAR SEATS. YOUR BABIES GET HANDLE CAR SEATS. YOU CAN PUT A TODDLER OR BABIE IN A STROLLER. YOU SHOULD GET TO HAVE A DOUBLE STROLLER. YOU SHOULD BEABLE TO LOCK KIDS IN ROOM FOR BEING BAD. YOU SHOULD BEABLE TO PUT UP FOR ADOPTION. YOU SHOULD GET TO HAVE BOOKBAGS. YOU SHOULD GET TO HAVE BUNKBEDS. KIDS SHOULD BE ABLE TO HAVE A SLUMBER PARTY. AND I HAVE ALOT MORE THAT WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO DO BUT I AM NOT GOING TO NAME THEM ALL THERE IS ABOUT A HUNDRED MORE ON MY MIND THAT I CAN THINK OF.

Sims 3 owner on Fri, 12th Jun 2009 1:33 pm
ok guys i got sims 3! in sims 3 the day u give birth u take the babie straight home and when u put it in the crib u can go to bed with ur spouse and try for another baby. u can stay at home and give birth or go to the hospital. u dont get to see ur sim give birth at the hospital. u can get a car but in buy mode.theres a lot of locations theres a pool,a graveyard,a hospital, a bookstore, a library i think, a park etc…… as you gain skills u unlock stuff for example:gaining a skill in cooking would unlock a new food. ur sim can get lots of jobs ur sim can also be a robber lol and break into other sims houses and steal cool stuff.

loads of suff you lot said is already in sims 2 when you have all the expansion packs like mobiles and going to the hair saloon and you can have an afair and you can have a nanny and loads more stuff like that if you don’t have those expansion pack you should really play them before you get sims 3
kaitlin on Fri, 28th Aug 2009 4:44 pm
i think when a sims 3 expansion comes you should be able to go on vacation and stuff and you can kidnapp babies toddlers children and teens there should be car wreaks preemie babies babies should get clothes and your sims can go shopping for the new baby and you can know what your babies gender is and if you are having more than one and when you bring your baby home comes home in clothes with a hat on and stuff and there should be handle car seats and booster seats and high back boosters for toddlers and and stuff that you can do in a real family and you can see in all buildings put new borns and toddlers in carts and stuff you should be able to control what your sims do when in the hospital and stuff like bunk beds i would call this expansion pack
THE SIMS 3 FAMILY FUN PACK!
