Your sims can play games on a computer, or on a television hooked up to the Maxoid Game Simulator 2 1/2, which sells for only $750 and has a fun rating of 7. When sims play games, they’re clearly displayed within the game. And they’re all plugs for Electronic Arts games. Instead of coming up with some sort of cute hypothetical games, Electronic Arts goes and drops three instances of blatant product placement into The Sims 3. Thanks, EA, for cramming yourselves inelegantly into my game world. I should at least be thankful for whomever shot down the idea of placing billboards around town, because I’m sure that idea must have been floated at some meeting.

Talk about messing with your mind (and the other sims mind!)
The Sims 3: videogames within videogames (from Fidgit)
Actually it’s good they put real games in there instead of random fake game title. Of course, they’re going to be EA games because they don’t have to acquire rights to them. And the billboards and movie posters thing would have been an excellent addition instead of the same movies playing at the theater forever and ever. Besides disabling the launcher and internet connection would have killed that anyways for those who truly hated the idea.
Playing Sims games would have been a great addition too.
