Man…I don’t ever recall a Sims game getting as many patches as much as we have been.Β  I for one am actually shocked to see how well The Sims Team is on the ball pumping out fixes.Β  Sure, there are a number of errors that still need to be corrected but at least they appear to be looking at solving them!Β  And you can’t really blame it on sloppy coding, you have to give them credit – they are trying.Β  πŸ™‚Β  Let’s keep it that way, EA for a near bug free game.

Many of you can download the v1.4.6 Patch by grabbing it thru the Launcher, but in case you are having issues, I have all 5 patch versions available to download straight from this site!
