Who here plays The Sims 3?

[Psivampyr]

I love sims and ponies and dolls and just wanted to see who else here does too. Also do you use mods, custom content? Where are your favorite websites for said items? Do you have all of the expansions?

I looooove the Sims, but i play version 2 instead of 3
I had it complete and thought it would be a waste of money to buy 3, since it came so soon after the last expansion pack from 2.
But i think the differences are not too big, i played with a friend that has Sims 3.

It's an awesome game
I have almost all expansions, just missing a few asseccories packs. I didn't think they added enough for what they'd cost.

I played the old version back in college with my roomies!

 I loved it!

I don't but it seems interesting.

Yep, when I have time I do use custom content and hacks. Including AwesomeMOD, which is, well, awesome I also like Mod The Sims, and of course The Sims Resource.


I don't have all the expansions because my computer wouldn't be able to handle them. I usually just have one or two installed at a time. I think my favorite is still World Adventures, and I would like Pets if the graphics weren't totally screwed up on my computer.

I play Sims 3 all the time. I made all the characters from my favourite t.v shows. I have most of the expansions and I LOVE custom content. I love Late Night and World Adventures.

I do. It's a nice thing to do while watching TV and the like. I love to build and decorate houses.

I totally agree about awesome mod and mod the sims being great. I tried the sims resource, but sometimes the quality just isn't like MTS. I also play 2 when I miss the silliness that sims 3 lacks. I don't do any of the modding or custom making myself for the game, I just am not talented enough like they are.
terabithianprince- what tv shows did you make sims from? I tried making Jem and the Holograms in my game, but the only one that looked like any relation to who they were was Stormer.

I play 3, because of the horses in the pets ep, theres now a huge online community revolved around breeding and showing the horses

Mod The Sims is wonderful

I would if Electronic Arts would acknowledge and fix all the problems.


Oh, Maxis. I miss you

I play. I've been playing The Sims games for 12 years now. I have all the expansions and stuff packs and play with Awesome Mod, a few of Twallan's mods (Master Controller and Overwatch) as well as a ton of other custom content, mostly clothes and hairstyles. I have kind of a love/hate relationship with the game, though. I'll get really into the game, playing usually for like 4-5 hours at a time for like a week or so, then my game will crash, losing my progress (though, recently I've gotten better about saving more often) and I'll lose all desire to play for several weeks. Then I'll come across some new cc for the game, or a new EP will come out and I'll want to play again, and the cycle starts again.

I just can't quite get too into the game because I really want weather/seasons and I keep getting disappointed each time a new EP is announced and it's not a weather expansion. It really prevents me from getting excited about any other packs, because all I can think is that they're not the pack I want. I'm really disappointed with the magic themed EP that's coming up. I like my game to be somewhat realistic, so I've always avoided the creatures in the games since the original Sims. So an EP with fairies and werewolves just doesn't excite me at all.

This used to happen to me all the time; I finally set up the auto-save feature for Awesome Mod. I'm sure there must be other mods with auto-save too

[terabithianprince]

I made Sims from Criminal Minds and some books like The Hunger Games for fun. Then totally messed up the storylines. For mods I use thesimsresource, modthesims (rarely), Rose Sims and All about style.

Mod the sims is the greatest place^^. I play sims 3 from time to time because i play a lot of hours straight and then get tired
