So, this is my first non-book related post! I have decided to write it about Sims 3, a really cool game I have been playing a ton lately! If you own either Sims 2 or Sims 1, I would still suggest Sims 3, even though the general main points are the same. I think the games have just been getting better and better! At first, I thought that with all you can do in it, that the game would be slightly overwhelming with too many things, and it is when you just start, but you grow into it really fast.
For those of you that haven't played any Sims before, the main idea is that you create people. In Sims 1, you choose from a select group of heads, bodies and feet. In Sims 2, you can choose from a few hairstyles and colors, while the feature controls are a bit more open, with options and scales, but the scales are pretty general. You also choose clothes styles with 
a few color options, and relative personality. In Sims 3, though, you can choose almost everything. You create your hair color (and can even add color of highlights, tips and roots!), endless eye color and makeup color, there are more feature scales and they are more exact, you choose the clothing shape and outline (If you want, you can choose patterns or colors for every part of the outfit), and much more detailed personality, like favorite food, color, style of music, voice, and also a wide variety of traits to choose, from 'friendly', to 'neurotic', to 'hates children'!

There isn't really much to say about that, but there are money cheats that you can use to be rich! Then... their world is yours. Paint a picture, run through the sprinkler, go to the day spa, shop for groceries, fish in a pond or the ocean, get a job, almost anything you want to do is possible. Another new feature of the game, you can just walk, bike, or drive seamlessly through the town, where in the other games, you would hop into a taxi or your car (or helicopter, in Sims 2!) and there would be a loading screen to get from one place to another. It feels so good not to load every time!
Anyways, that's the game. Make anything. Decide everything. Have fun. It's one of my favorite games in a while, I'm totally hooked!
