Electronic Arts announced they are releasing the MySims franchise to PC this October. Previously, the game was only available on consoles but they’ve gone and built a PC version and beefed it up with some new features. Ohhh the humanity! Why did they have to go and do this to me? I’ll admit I got a little addicted to the original Sims games thanks to my lovely wife but this doesn’t look a thing to me like the originals.
The list of features in the game from fully customizable characters and the ability to design and build homes, restuarants and other buildings and items in the game sounds familiar when thinking of the original Sims but this one takes on a very, very cartoony feel. Cartoony is okay in some games to a degree but I think this is playing off the Lego’s franchise style computer characters just a little to much, check out the screenshot from the game below:
I just know, judging my how childish the game looks, that my wife is going to love it and make me play! Arrrgh! They do have some features I think were missing in the first title though like the ability to play online with up to seven other people. That would have been nice before when the Sims looked, well…human-ish. I’m going to give this one a negative vote just based on the above screenshot and try desperately to keep my wife from ever discovering it’s existance. Don’t tell on me!
