Absolutely ********** truth, right there... well, maybe not all women are evil, but he certainly nailed it on the rest. :D

"You are not the ruler of your Sims, you are the one rushing to meet their every whim. You are the slave. You are the real play thing."

Yup, nailed it. :yep:

:har::haha::rotfl:Love Yahtzee's stuff. Always watch his updates on a Thursday morning. And his point about the Sims 3 is well made. But I want my Military sim to reach the end of his career path. Astronaut ftw!

I almost completely agree with his review.

You know what I use most about the Sims 3? The USB drive that comes with it. I blew over 60 dollars just to get a snazzy flash drive because the game is so boring.

I seriously cant believe how bad they screwed it up. I had though that some major packs can fix it. But the core issues need an entire redo to fix.

There is just nothing to keep you playing in the game. Especially when before you know it you are in your golden years ingame.

The sims 3 is a piece of ****. Not just for the bugs but for the fact that EA is already trying to milk the sims 3's tits so close to release.

When sims 2 was released it was like 4-5 months before the first expansion was released, and then another 2-3 for each following one. The expansions weren't bad, they would actually add depth to the game. Then EA started to whore the whole expansion line by adding stuff packs. You would have to pay 20 dollars to get new furniture and clothes, stuff you can find online for free, finally they set up the field for Sims 3 by adding a Sims 2 store, a place where you can spend real money to buy fake furniture and clothes.

Fastforward to today, there is alot of this crap on the sims 3 website to buy. Stuff that should of been free and came with the game. Sure they give you like 10$ worth of simpoints when you register your game, but thats like giving someone 100$ for starting a new credit card, you're going to spend way more than that your first go.

yea, its just EAs way of milking your bank account.:shifty:

The only little bit of money ive ever let EA get there hands on from me is when I bought crysis/warhead...

Crytech picked a bad publisher...:yep:
