    One day, while sitting in a meeting discussing the future of "The Sims Gaming Domination Network" (a.k.a. Maxis and EA) they decided to expand their quasi-evil empire to the console world, and they definitely made the right choice. Although transferring The Sims PC franchise over to the console world might seem like a daunting task Maxis has done a great job. This game almost seems like a marketing ploy gone terribly right/wrong (if that makes any sense). It has just... Read more

    In the end, EA did a lazy assed job porting this from the PS2. With no real upgrades at all, it just goes to show that Microsoft is willing to bend their "rules" of ports just for big consoles (developers are supposed to include some sort of original content exclusively for the Xbox version if they port it).

    For a long time, Electronic Arts' immensely popular god game The Sims was a PC exclusive, complete with expansion packs aplenty. Then, unexpectedly, the company released a PlayStation 2 equivalent. It spent quite some time at the top of the charts, so it comes as no surprise that the series is now making waves on Xbox too. Quite different from your ordinary god game, this one is first and foremost about people. You play god, set yourself up a little family and watch them... Read more
