I ...I haven't played Sims 3 in awhile - again. I tried to do that Prosperity hood, but I didn't have Awesomemod installed correctly. After that, I sort of lost interest after getting the expansions up through Ambitions. It was fun for awhile, but I got burned out again. I just really think it's a bad game for people like me (probably A.D.D.) because when all those "opportunities" pop up, it's really distracting and hard for me to decide what I should and should not have them do.Twoflowerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18044164183399754449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5292716011314613038.post-10247210059096213122012-02-08T13:25:19.378-06:002012-02-08T13:25:19.378-06:00Hey, I'm glad you wrote and updated.

Then I revisited it and found that it wasn't as bad as I remember, but it's also not Sims 2, so I play it on occasion.ciyrosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03268732995087523445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5292716011314613038.post-58615643012649222362009-06-21T15:32:49.427-05:002009-06-21T15:32:49.427-05:00that was sweet of your son to send you TS3. I'...that was sweet of your son to send you TS3. I'm glad Apple Grove isn't going away though!<br /><br />Thanks for offering your opinion. It seems everyone, like it or not, is saying something about how it is not really a continuation of the Sims 2, but a new game in the Sims universe.<br /><br />I haven't even been slightly tempted to buy it yet;-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5292716011314613038.post-42749009518934202962009-06-20T01:23:15.646-05:002009-06-20T01:23:15.646-05:00In truth you are not alone in your feelings.

I got the game the weekend it came out, and have been playing off and on ever since.<br /><br />Lets face it, it's NOT the sims 2. Sadly, EA marketed this game as the "next evelution" of the sims. We (hard core simmers) believed that this game would be a continuation of our beloved sims. Something similar to sims 2 but better. Like what they did with sims 1. When sims 2 came out we got just what he were expecting and more!<br /><br />Well sims 3 is NOT what I was expecting. Don't get me wrong. As a stand alone this game is alright (it could be better). But as a continuation to the sims 2 it sucks... badly!<br /><br />It plays like a video game, beacuse that's what it is. It was marketed to younger people (kids) and casual gamers, not simmers. You're forced to only play one style of game (legacy) and you're forced to focus on work and skilling the most.<br /><br />I'll play the game off and on, but I can not see myself going to sims 3 for my blog or my hood. Not going to happen.<br /><br />Sims 2 is where it's at! lol But to each his own. I'm glad that many people are enjoying the game.Riverdale Blogshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10056037584624429561noreply@blogger.com
