Which do you think is better? Sims (1) The Sims 2 or The Sims 3 ? (On PC).

i think i remember playing sims 1 and i would say i enjoyed it, yes now they have brang so much more out, but with the new stuff they bring out, also comes with a big memory size. Im not sure on the size of the sims 1 comapred too sims 2 but i would imagine it is quite alot more?

The Sims 2. Electronic Arts have completely destroyed The Sims franchise with The Sims 3 - the lack of sandbox play, the lack of things to do, and the increase in "roleplay" gaming is incredibly annoying. Why they've made restaurants and shops into objects is beyond me. It's a step backwards, a step behind The Sims :/

Do agree that the changes to shopping on it completely suck, although I like being able to buy the shops and stuff because I rename them to things that I find hilarious and get riccchhhh

Personally I like the Sims 1 better, it was more original at the time when it came out. Sims 2 is still good but they have all the fears and wants which i didn't really bother with.

But i did like the ps2 games better than the PC games and i liked the fact that in the ps2 games you had tasks to complete and different houses/cars/characters and furniture which you had to unlock. I found that sims 1 became a bit boring and could sometimes could very repetitive with daily routines. I did like the expansion packs though such as the vacation one, i found that fun

Ah, can you rename the buildings now? Last time I played around with it you can only rename the lot - the building still comes up in the top left as the default name, so you can have them work in amusing places like the Crack House
