I am actually very very impressed with Sims 3. It does a lot of things that the others didn't. For example, the current Sim (Jake Jacobson) makes a living entirely from fishing and gardening which I find really neat in contrast to the Sims and Sims 2 where you pretty much had to have a job and do the regular work thing. Also, new stuff is that the entire city is open to wander around in and there are no loading screens that were the bane of players in the first two games. You can go to the gym, bookstore, restaurants, grocery store, graveyard, fishing holes, parks, universities, other businesses, etc. Much more open and free to do what you want.

The Sims 3 has really sucked me in where the first two didn't really. I played and enjoyed the first two but they didn't really engage me as much as I would have liked.

I would definitely recommend it.
