One of my most anticipated games of the year has finally arrived with a whole lot of new features to explore. The new addition include job and skill perks, town exploration, additional requests, and more.
I like the fact that Electronic Arts added a bit of role playing to the game where my sims can do random requests from other sims based on their skills. If I'm good at fixing things, someone will ask me to upgrade their stereo and pay for the job. It creates a interesting variety between the life at home and on the job. Sims also have daily wishes that boosts their happiness that range from making friends to doing chores. The ultimate lifetime wish can also be part of a career field.
The town exploration is a lot of fun. An athletic sim can go for a jog and the player gets to control where he is running to and for how long. The sims can visit many places, like go to the movies, shopping, out on a town. At night it's also fun to go to the grave yard and get aquinted with the ghosts or explore the catacombs.
However, I wish there was more customizing variety in the game, like more hair styles, household and house rebuilding stuff. I had to get a lot of the additional objects on the website. But maybe the next expansion will bring more variety.
