Gaming Lives – The Sims 3 for Consoles reviewed

When all is said and done, Sims 3 has been shrunk down and re-wrapped for the console market, with a few new features to ensure longevity (not to mention achievements) and a control scheme which is, perhaps, as good as it will get. It is as absorbing and entertaining as it ever was, stealing the player’s life and distilling it into their own creations. Ironic? Perhaps, but it is always easier to tell someone else what to do and watch them do it, rather than make an effort yourself and risk failure or rejection. Here, in this world, you can create, control, and achieve those elusive dreams, albeit vicariously. This is essentially what the game boils down to and is perhaps why it has sold, and always will sell, in its millions. Anyway, what other game gives you achievement points for Woo Hooing?
