I’m still not convinced that GameSpot has actually PC gamers or fans of the Sims games as employees. That being said, here’s their review of Generations. Thanks to lolifofo for the heads up.
The Sims games have traditionally received two types of add-ons: “stuff” packs that give fans new items like decor and apparel, and full expansions that add brand new gameplay elements. The Sims 3: Generations is an awkward middle child, granting you more than just hairstyles and new chairs but none of the inventiveness found in previous expansions like World Adventures and AmbitionsThe Sims 3. This addition is a pleasant extension of what already does–not a game changer–and series addicts will undoubtedly enjoy how well Generations captures the essence of life’s individual milestones.
Yeah. 6.5 seems pretty high for a very expensive pseudo EP.
I certainly hope so! ^_^
what Gen was lacking, Pets will have. I kinda feel like Gen was a little light because of Pets. Pets is gonna be a BIG expansion.
Why do you think that? Pets for TS2 was the absolute worst EP in terms of content (didn’t add anything but the animals) and so far for Ts3 we haven’t heard anything else…. 6.5 does seem a little low for Generations, I would have given it at least a 7-7.5
I meant Sims 3 Pets for the PC. Pets for the PS2 was a stand-alone game. Pets for the PC was good. It added cats, dogs, hamsters, caged birds a new town, lots of new interactions and lots of new stuff. TS3 Pets will do the same, and hopefully the werewolf will return as it did with Sims 2 Pets.
The Sims 2 Pets did not have a new town.
