The Sims 1 vs Sims 2 vs Sims 3
My opinion:
The Sims 1 - only for nostalgics and people who has been with the franchise from the beginning. Newcomers will probaly find it too restricted and dated.
The Sims 2 - Basically the first Sims game, only VERY VERY improved and can still compete with The Sims 3. It's biggets flaw is long loading times.
The Sims 3 - probaly better than Sims 2. It has open neighborshoods and personality traits for example, and has a "bigger" gameplay. But it's sims isn't good looking and it's more bugged than the 2 first games put together.
What's your opinion?
