I honestly think Sims 3 is only good for making houses. :/ The world itself, the plants the ocean and all of that is fantastic but...
You can only create fat ugly retarted looking sims, and even with a bunch of slider hacks it's hard to get themto look good....
And playing families is no fun either, because you don't have control over the whole neighborhood. I decide to play the familie of the daughter of one sim, and when I go back to thethe other familie that person has already got divorced had 4 kids with different people and got fired. :

For starters the Sims are really ugly, like I want to bleach my brain ugly. Then the babies are like fat bundles?
Their isn't much you can do, like half the buildings are just hollow? Like it's just the outside of the building.
The playing families part I have to agree with because when you turn off the something about neighborhood people being able to get promotions and married etc the game feels like it's going nowhere but when you do turn it on the family you weren't playing move in with some randoms

lol I've never experienced that. :3
Mine always works great!

I can make pretty sims there with no hacks, i dunno.
The only thing I don't like about CAS is how the throat and neck do that weird fat people thing.

I also like how in Sims 3, you don't get that ugly baby syndrome from two different looking parents
The world is fun to me; no loading screens and lots of things to do - i guess there's more with the expansions I don't have but w/e.

Anyone mind if I upload some screenies? :3

I guess, when it comes down to it;
It really IS a whole different game; cosmetically, the game is pretty nice, but playing it can be a hassle. It's much harder to mod and the neighborhood can be VERY annoying!

Anyone hear play sims 1 at all?

Killerpixie - Those "hollow buildings" are one of the things that annoy me the most!!

Kitty, pretty sims ?? Well good for you
Yea, I'd love to see some, I was thinking of posting some screenies myself
Sims 1 ?? Nope, stopped many years ago haha

Oh, I meant HAS anyone here played it. Ever, lol not currently.

Oh, I used to.
(And I was crap at it. I needed hacks to even keep my sims alive.)

I've been able to make some okay sims with custom sliders in the Sims 3. I don't think the sims are that ungly. To me they are mainly very generic looking (well if that makes non-difform baby it can be good).
The eye sliders are good, though.
Traits are awesome, but I wish the game had aspirations too.

To me playing with families is okay. Killing sims take too long and it's a bit frustrating that you can't have an empty neigberhood unless you download one.
The coolest things in live mode are subtile IMO. Like the painting and novel writting menues, etc.

I dislike the built and buy modes because of the new layouts and the fact that even if you can changes the colors of almost everything, you don't have alot of furniture to choose from (and no piano, and no diving board, and no baby-chairs).

Empty buildings can go DIAF.

Well I like the Sims 3 for:the acces of neighborhhod,the goth and bachelor familys young!,and maybee thats all SIMS2 IS SUPREME though

lmao, I played The Sims 1 when it first came out. Stopped when Sims 2 came out.


When me and my sister first played it; we played the Newbie family. We couldn't figure out how to move the bed that we accidentally placed outside. xD

Good times... Good times !!!

I remember playing with my brother and we used to both be kids in it and one would look after the house while the other went to school, eventually one of us went military school XD

I started with Ps2 Sims I thought it was amazing (BLAHHHHHHHHH) SIMS2 BABY FOR PC!!!!!
Ive always wanted to get the Sims1 ever since I was like 5 or 6 because I lived in an apartment and these two sistas(kinda liked them XD) had the game (I spied from outside their windows no pervo XD)but yeah and my dad was like Alex wait until your older k (FUCK DAT!!!) GOOOD TIMEZ!!!

I've never bothered to buy the Sims 3, I just felt that the sims look stupid..they look like the people out of WALL-E , aha :L

But, all the sliders seem amazing! And the housing! Its just the sims that let it down :/.

awww don't worry Fran sims 1 days are over even though I like it,I mean it started it all.

I miss the magic one that was epic

I loved the Makin' Magic ep.
Though my favorite to play was Vacation. :3

I have so many memories with Sims 1 ~
I kind of miss it.

I tried making some pretty sims in 3, but it didn't turn out too good.
Most of the pics I took, the girls were blinking lol
