Perhaps you've heard of this little known game called
The Sims 3? Apparently the game released last week and was met with both critical acclaim and colossal sales. The third installment in the ultra popular life simulation series had the biggest launch in the franchise's history. To be more specific, it sold 1.4 million units and there were 7 million downloads of player created content in the first week of release. The iPhone version, which sells for $9.99, also managed to do extremely well as it became the #1 paid app on the iTunes store.
The Sims is a big franchise, so this was expected, but it's always nice to see a great game do well. For more info head on over to the game's
