For a long time, it seemed like all EA made were Sims games and sports games. So it was surprising to see all three Sims titles confined to one corner of the showroom – but it made it easier for me to cover them all in one fell swoop.
First up was My Sims because I got it confused with My Sims Kingdom. My Sims is already out on Wii but the upcoming PC release introduces new community features (like shared Gardens where you can hang out) and six new character NPCs that sort of (but not really) tie into My Sims Kingdom. My Sims on PC looked to be more user-friendly for the builders among you than it was on Wii (or maybe I say that because I’m a klutz with the Wii Remote) and I noticed that the terrain now has different elevations. Terraced garden, here I come.
Create, Enjoy, Destroy. That’s the new tag line for EA’s next SimCity installment exclusively for the Wii and DS.I can’t wait to fly through my metropolis creations while battling prehistoric creatures and sipping on a slurpee from 7-Eleven. I will say this though, there’s something about the first kid playing the game that really creeps me out.
