Eventhough The sims3 graphic is superior and the way you can experience the sims town work syncronisingly its so surprising that you can get bored playing the same people against town people again and again. At least in the Sims2, players can create multiple families and put them as neighbours and playing God like match making them, do business, create vacation homes and hotels, towns and so much control and power. Just hoping that there will be some expension pack that can open the barrier and make us making the whole neighbour our own again side by side EA favorite character..and I want to be business tycon, shopping clothes and jewelleries and design my own places of interest..Hope creator can listen to our deepest need and the reason why we buy and play this games for so many years...hey I already grow old with this game..this is already part of my life, at least do something about it :)&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Fara</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 23 Dec 2009 11:30:35 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: EA&amp;#8217;s Sims 3 game could be critical for company&amp;#8217;s future</title><link>http://games.venturebeat.com/2009/06/01/eas-sims-3-game-could-be-critical-for-companys-future/#comment-24734187</link><description>&lt;p&gt;good article...thanks a lot for the information!&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">laptop battery</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 03 Dec 2009 19:36:21 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: EA&amp;#8217;s Sims 3 game could be critical for company&amp;#8217;s future</title><link>http://games.venturebeat.com/2009/06/01/eas-sims-3-game-could-be-critical-for-companys-future/#comment-23843656</link><description>&lt;p&gt;stupid or not, NAME, my point was simply that EA, in my own opinion, PURPOSELY left a lot out of sims3 so they could come up with sims 3 expansions, like they did with sims2, to make more money off the sins fans out there. why the heck else would they claim that sims3 is so new and improved but, yet, leave out all the expansion items they included, gradually, with sims2? they are up to something i believe, like making money off of us in the future. i mean, cmon, are you gonna tell me this sim3 is it? this is all we get for our money? i bet anyone that they will do the same thing with sims3 that they did with sims2 and that is put out new expansions that will include new/more items or even pets. wait and see.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">LF</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 22 Nov 2009 20:07:06 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: EA&amp;#8217;s Sims 3 game could be critical for company&amp;#8217;s future</title><link>http://games.venturebeat.com/2009/06/01/eas-sims-3-game-could-be-critical-for-companys-future/#comment-18440169</link><description>&lt;p&gt;too many faults within the game its an absolute outrage that they are still allowed to sell it!&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">amy</dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 03 Oct 2009 19:08:58 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: EA&amp;#8217;s Sims 3 game could be critical for company&amp;#8217;s future</title><link>http://games.venturebeat.com/2009/06/01/eas-sims-3-game-could-be-critical-for-companys-future/#comment-15985824</link><description>&lt;p&gt;sims 3 was a disgrace,ive played the sims 2 and loved it for what it is and has come up in my books as the best pc game ever!(full stop)but the sims 3 was like taking 2 steps forward and 3 back i mean you can custimize things more,so what?,theres barely any new items-infact theres hardly ANY items there is like a shortage of hair for male sims and you cant place lots,and more importently to me...you cannot create custom neighbourhoods(just something i LOVED to do in sims 2)i mean wtf? they expect us to play that 1 stinkin hood untill we get bored to death with it? and adding new ones wont help it just meens-more empty lots and existing lots are place in diff places(thats the simple way to put it) to be honist sims 3 is a discrace cant belive i wasted my money...the only reason ea made so much of it is because all the loyal players from the sims 2 brought it....80% of those players found sims 2 was superior still the other 20% were the "non creators" who liked live mode and i think ea focused to much upon that...and i would no more people would buy sims 2 because its heavly focussed on custom creation witch made people think:"wow i can create my own house/me/town?".but the sims 3 is all about oo i can create a sim and play him/her in htis town...wow...thats it...&lt;br&gt;thanks for your time. =)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-J Master Xp&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">jmasterxp</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 04 Sep 2009 14:30:12 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: EA&amp;#8217;s Sims 3 game could be critical for company&amp;#8217;s future</title><link>http://games.venturebeat.com/2009/06/01/eas-sims-3-game-could-be-critical-for-companys-future/#comment-15349794</link><description>&lt;p&gt;If sims 2 was compatible with sims 3, it wouldn't work, as the graphics are completely different. Plus that would mean making sims3, look exactly like sims 2, so that's a bit stupid. &lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Name</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 25 Aug 2009 09:06:38 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: EA&amp;#8217;s Sims 3 game could be critical for company&amp;#8217;s future</title><link>http://games.venturebeat.com/2009/06/01/eas-sims-3-game-could-be-critical-for-companys-future/#comment-14640243</link><description>&lt;p&gt;sims3 is ok but that's all. i agree with mary in that a lot, and i mean a lot, of really good stuff in sims2 that was left out of sims3 and i dont think that is fair to us loyal simmers. i wanted to know can you still play the sim2 expansion sets with sims3 actually. sims2 pets would be great to play with sims3 of example.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;but i suspect EA did this on purpose sdo they could make more money off of us. by making sim2 copies of their expansions especially for sims3 they would make a lot more money off of sims3. is that fair? of course it isn't because they could have easily fixed it so you can play the sim2 expansion games with sims3 but they didn't because they are planning to make their own sims3 expansions to get more money off us. no, its not fair but it is typical greed from your typical big companies.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;over all, in my opinion, i'd rate sims3 a 3 stars out of a possible 5 but i would DEFFINITELY give it a 5 out of 5 if they'd had fixed it so we could actually play the sims2 expansion games with it.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">L.F.</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 11 Aug 2009 12:13:09 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: EA&amp;#8217;s Sims 3 game could be critical for company&amp;#8217;s future</title><link>http://games.venturebeat.com/2009/06/01/eas-sims-3-game-could-be-critical-for-companys-future/#comment-12274898</link><description>&lt;p&gt;i enjoy sims 3, i own sims 1 &amp;amp; 2 and 3 now, overall sims 3 is a good and fun game but theres some goods things in sims 2, that was left out of sims 3. but still  overall a little bit better then sims 2. but only a little bit better. Hopefully sims 3 with get better with its future expansions&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Mary</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 07 Jul 2009 15:39:58 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: EA&amp;#8217;s Sims 3 game could be critical for company&amp;#8217;s future</title><link>http://games.venturebeat.com/2009/06/01/eas-sims-3-game-could-be-critical-for-companys-future/#comment-11569704</link><description>&lt;p&gt;The Sims 3 was a HUGE disappointment&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">sara9674</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 22 Jun 2009 13:41:49 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: EA&amp;#8217;s Sims 3 game could be critical for company&amp;#8217;s future</title><link>http://games.venturebeat.com/2009/06/01/eas-sims-3-game-could-be-critical-for-companys-future/#comment-11569694</link><description>&lt;p&gt;The Sims 3 was a HUGE disappointment&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">sara9674</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 22 Jun 2009 13:41:32 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
