The Sims 3 for Xbox 360 Reviews by Gamers

if your a huge sims fan of sims you will love this game, dont listen to all these people giving bad scores, the reasson they are upset is because they are mad that its the same on the pc, hey people when you buy lets say black ops for the 360, then buy it for the ps3 do you think its going to be different? people just make no sense sometime. but anyways the game is great, the time is slowed down (witch is good) you can interactive more with things and people, you can now cuddle on the couch with someone, complain about your house being messy, ect. you can make any color of clothing, its just a great game, just at least give it a try

After what seemed an eternity the Sims finally come to the new generation consoles. While the premise remains the same and most of the basic feeding,housework,ect.. still remain, the karma addition adds a new element to the game. The karma powers allow you to make life terrible or better at the push of a button for any Sims. This was the best of the new improvements to the game in my opinion.

Also the game took away the ability to control your Sim like you were able to in Sims 2, this caused the game to be more of a chore than fun. I still enjoyed the game but the jerky and sometimes hard to control camera and the lack of vision to see your Sim, say at work, was bothersome. The achievement list is quite varied as well but some of them will take more than a leg and an arm to get...so be warned you achievement gatherers out there!

Overall the game was a great first shot for consoles but needs some tweaking in certain areas. The good is that there are TONS of new customization stuff, more open world, not having to eat every 2 seconds, new powers and wishes, and far more options. The bad being the jerky camera, the hard to learn controls, and the loss of being able to directly control your Sim. For Sims fans it will certainly please with little concern but to all others don't get your hopes up too incredibly high.
