The Sims 3 is still a fairly new game, as it came out earlier this summer. If you’ve played with previous versions of The Sims (the original and Sims 2), then you know that this is not your ordinary computer game. Somewhat like a virtual world, all Sims games are based upon controlling the lives of created characters in various towns. This is an easy game to play since its not really a game at all. There are no real points to the Sims, other than making sure that your Sim is well-taken care of and has completed her life goals. Since we have come a long way from first Sims game, let’s find out what sets Sims 3 apart from the first two games.

1- Sims 3 features a more interactive neighborhood. What used to be a small town with mostly residential lots now has become a “real” neighborhood with schools, gyms, libraries, etc.- all of which are interactive. However, certain public buildings don’t allow an “inside view” so you will have to control your Sims from the outside of the building.

2- The Sims 3 are more career-oriented.  Have you ever wondered what your Sim does at work? Now you know! With Sims 3, your Sim now actually goes to work in a building and deals with a supervisor, just like the rest of us!. This game also allows you to choose part-time jobs or take in some overtime if your Sim is so inclined. Like Sims 2, this game allows players to unlock career rewards to attain.

3- Sims 3 offers more control. With this latest version of Sims, you can really fine tune your character’s appearance and personality. Choose from three body types of fit, regular, and fat. From there you can select their genetic appearance, style, and personality traits. Now you can make your Sim have a distinctive personality that can make or break his interactions with other Sims.
