EA and Maxis put up a sneak peak of their new Sims 3 game scheduled to release in 2009. For anyone who has ever played or heard of a Sims game this is nothing earth shattering, but it does look pretty crisp and the familiar ‘Simlish’ is back. This one looks to be a bit more open world and focuses not only on the player and their home, but the entire town. More Sims action to come to your PC next year.
Star Wars is a super epic movie that anyone with a pulse can easily recognise, so of course it made sense to have it grace video game consoles. Pretty much slapping a Star Wars logo on about anything will make it sell, just look at Soul Calibur putting in Darth Vader and Yoda, not necessary at all but people will buy the game just to use these characters.
Great to see how the Star Wars franchise developed from it’s original roots on the original consoles and developed into Lego inspired games, RPG’s like Knights of the Old Republic and classic fighter games like Rebel Assault. Star Wars is one of those franchises that provides so much story and so much content that the possibilities of games is almost endless.
I am thinking the only thing we are missing is Star Wars Sims, build Chewbaca a hut and make him a vital part of society.
So this is what the world has come to people. Love it or hate it (I personally love it) ‘SimCity’ as a concept has come to pass in the real world.
