Don't believe the bad rep, it's the best console Sims you're probably ever going to get.

User Rating: 8.5 | The Sims 3 X360
Before the Sims 3 came out on 360, I hadn't played a Sims game since the Sims 1 since my computers were all unable to run them. I did play all of the other console versions (except Sims 2) and unlike other people, I really did like them all. Then this game came out and I was finally able to play a real sims game that wasn't the first one. I read the reviews and all of the reasons this game was getting a bad rep for seemed very pointless to me as a few glitches and whatever people said was left out from the pc version didn't seem like a big deal to me. And all of the reasons really aren't a big deal.

When I first started playing the game, I was pretty lost. Even in fast forward, the time was just never passing quick enough, but I got used to it after a couple hours. Then I finally started making some money at my job and was finally able to make my house look nice. I moved to a bigger house, and I'm sure you know how the rest of playing this game goes. This game is amazing, and I love it just as much as I loved the first one when I got it on pc.

Honestly, don't believe all of the bad rep this game is getting. Yeah, people dislike it, but that's because they're used to all of the freedom they have in the pc version. This version does apparently have less, but it's as good as the console sims games go, and I have been enjoying every second I've been playing it since I got it.
