The Sims 3 World Adventures
And so it begins. The first of what I am sure to be many expansion packs for The Sims 3 has been announced as The Sims 3 World Adventures is due to hit the stoes on November 16th. You'll be able to take your sims to other places such as China, France, and Egypt where they'll be presented with new challenges and new skills. If you're into purchasing items, 1000 SimPoints also come included with the expansion pack. iPhone and iPod touch folks will also get to play in 2010. I've yet to try out the game but I've heard many, many good things about it. For people like me who played a lot of the first one and some of the second one, do you recommend playing the third one out?
