Okay, so you have had quite a while to test the Sims 3 out and build somewhat of an opinion on it. Us here at Sims 3 World are really interested in what you think of it and your reviews, so I created a little poll, just so we can see what the majority think of it so far! Get voting!
For anyone who hasn't heard yet, The Sims 3 was an incredible success for EA. The reviews for the game are excellent and sales are through the roof.
Check out this story on Yahoo Finance, it's well worth reading. It really shows how big of a label this single franchise is for the entire corporation.
Today is the day everyone, enjoy your game and good job to the winners of the contest, enjoy your free copy for your great work!
Hopefully I'll get a database soon on the site with downloads (expecially homes!!) I need some people to help, if you want to volunteer your time for the forum and downloads to come please email me right now!
IGN.com has posted some goodies for everyone for The Sims 3 including a few short videos, a preview of the neighborhood "Riverview" and of course a few new shots of screens. Be sure to check it out.
Contest Update: Final review is today! (Monday Memorial Day)
Note: Happy Memorial Day. Thousands have sacrificed their lives for us, let us remember them on this day.
Everyone, I am sorry but the scoring and deciding of the stories is taking us much longer then expected. We have decided on the two winners of the fan art and winners will be posted soon! We are going to spend hours hopefully on Sunday and Monday to finish and make the final three decisions (they are all excellent which makes this difficult)
The results will be posted here along with the stories and artwork of the 5 winners. You will see it when you come to the site, I would recommend Monday evening. Sorry for the delay guys!
