The Sims 3 is notorious for its overpriced DLC. However, this issue no longer scared me off once I found this Steam release. Now, the game consistently goes on sale for 75% off, including all the expansions. That means that all the expansions are only about sixty dollars. Considering how much content each expansion offers, I'd say it's worth the price of admission.

The Sims 3 honestly has extremely fun gameplay thanks to the deep mechanics held inside. There's plenty to do, and as long as you don't cheat, it's also quite rewarding.

The biggest star here are the mods. New neighborhoods, items, clothes, vehicles, gameplay, etc. Even with just the base game, this game can still be very engaging with the assistance of mods.

In conclusion, now that the expansions can be purchased way cheaper than before, it's easy for me to recommend this game to anyway. It's still the best Sims game to this day (although I think Sims 2 is a close second).

OMG yes! Sims 3 is the best. I've been playing it for ages. The expansions are totally worth it, especially at that price. Mods are life!
