Night and day home design in The Sims 3

Friday, February 27th, 2009

This is pretty neat if you are the kind of Sims player that enjoys the home building side of the game. I have been following the Sims 3 creators camp and I thought these pictures that came out a bit back were interesting. I liked how they showed not only the different ways we will [...]

Take a look at these goth sims from The Sims 3

Wednesday, February 25th, 2009

Apparently, we won’t be able to actually play vampire characters in The Sims 3. However, by the look of these pictures that have been released we will certainly be able to make our sims characters look as goth as we like. Just take a look at these two pictures from The Sims 3 that have [...]

Sims 3 trailer gives new look at character creation

Monday, February 23rd, 2009

I have made no secret of the fact that near enough my favorite bit of playing The Sims is getting to create the Sims characters. Yes, I know that it is more than a bit liking playing dress up with your dolls as a kid but it is really *so* much better than that. So, [...]

A glimpse at Sims 3 pregnant women

Saturday, February 21st, 2009

This picture from The Sims 3 gives us our first look at what the pregnant women will look like in the new game. No news on if there will be the ability to have pregnant men like you can have in The Sims 2 when a man is abducted by aliens. I am curious to [...]

Questions about The Sims 3 answered by EA

Thursday, February 19th, 2009

If you are like me and chomping at the bit to play The Sims 3 then you are probably also filled with a ton of questions about the game. That is why when I saw this Sims 3 video put out by EA games I knew I should post it here and share. In this [...]

I am digging the look of short hair in the Sims 3

Tuesday, February 17th, 2009

If I am honest, don’t make many short haired female Sims when I am playing the Sims 2. The prime reason is because I just have never found the short hair cut options on The Sims to be all the flattering to the female characters. So, when I saw this picture from the upcoming Sims [...]

The makeup for the Sims 3 looks so much better

Friday, February 13th, 2009

Not that the makeup you could use in The Sims 2 was bad but just take a look at this sample picture from The Sims 3 and see how much different it will be this time. I love the idea of having shades and the ability to blend.  Also notice the streaks of color in [...]

The Sims 3 men are fine!

Wednesday, February 11th, 2009

There are so many fashion combinations for the female characters in The Sims that I am often guilty of neglecting the fashion needs of my male Sims. I think part of that is because I have tended to think that the clothing and hair options for the men in The Sims 2 wasn’t nearly as [...]

I believe the Sims 3 Children are the future

Monday, February 9th, 2009

Yup, that was a pretty cheesy topic for a blog post which is pretty much just some sample screen grabs I have from The Sims 3 that feature the Sims 3 kids. Boy have Sims kids come a long way from just being a crying baby in a crib in the original version of The [...]

This picture from The Sims 3 makes me giggle

Saturday, February 7th, 2009

The guys that put together The Sims games really know how to make me giggle. Sometimes it isn’t even their out and out jokes that get me. For example, I came across this sample picture for The Sims 3 and I couldn’t help by chuckle. Just take a look at this Sims 3 couple and [...]
