I purchased this game the day it came out and it was flawless as long as I had my cd. I let a buddy borrow it and never seen it again. But recently they let me play through origin without a CD. which was awesome! But the game has changed. From constant freezing and wanting me to tell Facebook about my "memories" of getting a new job or buying a new chair is ridiculous. The Ultra fast speed is broken, more like ultra slow. The game has went from a classic to garbage. Thanks EA.

I have been a Sims gamer since I was little; like age 6 little or something. I love EVERY Sims series that they have come out with! WITH THAT SAID this game is extremely slow. It takes forever just to save the game! It becomes very irritating real quickly. Also, the clothing choice is terrible without any expansion packs (I have Supernaturals) and even that one doesn't include much good clothes. All of the good clothes you have to pay extra for or experiment with other expansion packs to see what clothes they include. Overall this game is amazing fun and something brand new! Totally amazing!
One of the best games ever!!!(but there's a catch)

This is one of the best games I've ever bought, BUT, however, you need an at least a better than decent speed computer. Otherwise you will have bad running speed. Even the family laptop we just bought a year ago has a hard time running it at a decent speed. The Sims 3's expansion packs are needed to have the fullest experience, but even the base game alone is great if you have custom content! I TOTALLY reccomend this game to anyone who is in middle school and up!
I am a pretty big fan of the "sims" series. My favorite sims game was the very first one. This one is very fun with an okay amount of items to attain. The whole family aspect I think is where the game really shines and proves difficult but there are also some big disappointments too, which is why I only gave this a 7. I really dislike how EA is milking money from customers by making all these expansions for the game. In just the original game there are an okay amount of items but there is NO reason why they couldn't have put more in. By now you would think that they would put in more than 3 computers or there around, and thats just an example. I'm not saying this is a bad game at all because it's not. It's a great game. I'm just saying that I think it's stupid that they are punishing non expansion players to the limited amount of items
