Sims 3

[Rizzano]

The Sims 3 lets you immerse truly unique Sims in an open, living neighborhood just outside their door! The freedom of The Sims 3 will inspire you with endless possibilities and amuse you with unexpected moments of surprise and mischief.

New Seamless, Open Neighborhood - Explore the neighborhood freely.
Your Sims can roam throughout their neighborhood, visit neighbors' homes, and explore the surroundings. They can stroll downtown to hang out with friends, meet someone new at the park, or run into colleagues on the street. If your Sims are in the right place at the right time, who knows what might happen?!

New Create A Sim - Create any Sim you can imagine.
New easy-to-use design tools allow for unlimited customization to make truly individual Sims. Determine your Sims' shape and size, from thin to full-figured to muscular - and everything in between! Choose your Sims' facial features, their exact skin tone, hair, eye shape and color and select their clothing and accessories.

New Realistic Personalities - Every Sim is a unique person, with a distinct personality.
Create realistic Sims with distinctive personalities. Select from dozens of personality traits and combine them in fun ways. The combination of traits you choose - brave, artistic, loner, perfectionist, klepto, romantic, clumsy, paranoid, and much, much more - help shape the behavior of your Sims and how they interact with other Sims. Your Sims can now rise above their basic set of every day needs. They are complex individuals with unique personalities.

New Unlimited Customization - Everyone can customize everything!
Build your dream house or design the ultimate home. Customize everything from floors to flowers, shirts to sofas, wallpaper to window shades. It’s fun and easy to change colors and patterns giving you endless personalization options. Or you can populate your Sims’ neighborhood with pre-designed buildings and furnishings. Which of your Sims will live in high-end mansions, cool bachelor pads, ultimate dream homes or low-cost cottage?

I am looking forward to it. Wife is too.

My daughter is still playing sims 1, she is supposed to be playing sims 2 after I upgraded her PC to play it , but someone decided to send me the game by sea so its going to take 3 months to get here.....

Not my kind of games, to me it's basically a virtual doll house, which I think is what females like so much about it.

God knows women are obsessively fascinated with other peoples lives, whether they be virtual or real.

No doubt it will be a huge seller for Maxis though.

three months??? where are they sending it from? the island?

[Scarface]

Some far away place called canadia.

Shoot I have the game and all expansions. I'd make a copy of each and give you my serials (don't reg) and send em to you faster and probably cheaper than what you are getting lol.

I am not enthused at all by this game. I think the Sims ran it's best course in it's original form. I mean, God, I LOVED the makin' magic add on! But with University and apartment expansions, it's taking itself far too seriously.

Although, I've got to admit, I do love the cheese toast aspiration.

So what you are saying is that I should have asked you instead of alex ....

Not to mention the fact she has probably declared the contents as : extremely illegal copies of very copyrighted games.

So 15 seconds after delivery i'm going to be face down on the ground with handcuffs and a rather rotund smelly man with a moustache screaming "freeze scum-bag!".

[Rizzano]

Damn you discovered my plan!

Dude, you can't get cheaper than free.

Anyways there's something to be said for boat mail.

Ok funny you should say that, I was really really tempted to declare the contents as: The complete Bryan Adams CD collection. I was going to use a fake name and address but luckily they didn't want those details, it was to cover myself in case customs is less shoddy this time, certainly not to protect you. :)

I'm not too excited about Sims 3, first I doubt I could even run it, second I don't like the way the Sims look in the screenshots, third I am very attached to my Sims 2 neighbourhood and won't be leaving it anytime soon. I do wish they had made a Makin' Magic type expansion for Sims 2 though, or perhaps Superstar, unfortunately they came out with boring Free Time and Bon Voyage-type ones. I like University though. I suppose they were trying to avoid repeating too many themes between Sims 1 and Sims 2 expansions.

[Rizzano]

Ah I didn't know he was getting them from you.

Only if that something is "****ing useless!"
