Have been playing the sims starting with sim tower and moving through the sims collection, sims 2 (which I loved when it came out brought a whole new dimension) and now the sims 3 is even more amazing. Neighborhood play being able to leave your house and go about the town is great! If you enjoyed a sims game before, you are very likely to love this game. The new design elements are very nice. Only issue at this time there is no option for building your own neighborhood from scratch and I do miss that. I believe that you could take the entire town apart and start from scratch that way but I haven't tried actually doing that (yet).
It's a lot of fun. The new features are all terrific. Only tech issue that I've had is that if you remain idle too long, the screen gets dark and you cannot undo that without signing out of the game and then signing back on. So if you are up answering the door and get to chatting or have to run outside a minute, you either need to play with an unattractive dim screen or restart. The good thing is that if you save and exit, you do get to come back with the screen looking normal and your progress all saved.
I liked getting the bonus storage device with the collector's edition. It's practical and I get a lot of comments on it! It's a little bit extra but I think it's worth it. The alternate town you can download for free is pretty decent too. So at this point you choose between two neighborhoods of play.
There is an online exchange for customized items that players have created and also an online store. I bought some things with my free points (which is nice) but have not put any money into buying from the store. What's nice about it (opposed to item/expansion like homestuff for sims 2) is that you can buy items individually and don't get stuck with a ton of stuff you don't like.Get more detail about The Sims 3 Collector's Edition.
