Sims 3

Sims 3 comes out Tuesday. I have it pre-ordered. I'll let you all know how great it is after I play it for a few days...

So, what's the verdict?

Is there a Mac version coming out, and if so, will it be any good (as in, worth it)?

Well it's missing a LOT of stuff from the previous games. It is basically the base game and that only. It basically changed the game play, so that everything seamless, meaning that there are no load screens other than at the beginning. You can follow your sims to work and to downtown. However, none of the downtown places/job places are actually playable or even seeable.

I give it a 8/10.

They need to release more expansions and bring back some of the features from Sims 2. It's fun, but right now I'm going to play both Sims 2 and Sims 3, until the Sims 3 brings back features from later expansion packs from Sims 2.

That was probably their intention all along. It was the same with the last two games, why should this one be any different?

The game is on a Win/Mac DVD.

My wife really likes it, or so it seems. She has been playing it a lot.

They are just going to relese it all in expansions to make more money.

Thats why I left Sims 2.
Because I felt like I was missing out if I didnt spend 30$ to buy a new expansion.
