Wave goodbye to your friends, and forget about seeing the sun – The Sims 3 is here and it’s about to control your life. While fans of the series will find the fresh gameplay they’ve come to love, those who have yet to experience the franchise will find an experience that feels more like a new beginning than a sequel. Luckily, The Sims 3 not only meets any expectation one could have – it blows them away completely.
But what happens when a game has no end? The only fair thing to do it seems would be to judge the game based on how fun it is and how well it accomplishes what the developers set out to do. As a game reviewer, my job is clear – to give you a clear picture of just how good a game is from beginning to end. Games like The Sims 3 and its predecessors pose an interesting dilemma.
