The best reviews are the ones that give away items after you read through them.  Gaming Lives shared their insight of the newly available Barnacle Bay town, and like many other’s, they find the town to be lacking and overpriced:

On one hand, there is much to like about Barnacle Bay – there are some inspired touches, though they are, sadly, all too few and the whole island doesn’t have the character or charm to make it really standout as it could have.  Patchwork fields and modern homes just don’t fit to my mind.  If it were free, none of this would matter quite so much, since the island itself will make a good base to tweak in EA’s free Create A World tool, however, the price is an issue.

In order to lighten the load for us fans, they have decided to give away 3 codes to redeem for Barnacle Bay, and entering couldn’t be any more easier!  All it involves is a Twitter account and the following tweet:

I want to win a #BarnacleBay #Sims3 download @GamingLives because One Eyed Willy is my childhood hero http://bit.ly/GLBarnacle

You have to be following their account in order to win as they’ll either DM you or email you the code if you are one of the 3 winners come on October 30th.  What have you got to lose?  Might as well give it a try!
