De Sims 3 Beestenbende review (3DS) van Nintendo Universe

The game isn’t without its issues though. In-game sounds are noticeably light perhaps due to space issues, the ‘Free Will’ AI in places often forgets that your Sim has a job to go to, and, unless I’m mistaken, the option to hire Maids, call for a Pizza delivery etc has been entirely removed meaning that there is far more emphasis on the player making sure everything is spick and span which can inevitably be a time consuming frustration. Areas away from your home, whilst large, are too sparsely populated even if they are a welcome change of scenery from your humble abode.

After the misdirection of lacklustre Nintendo 3DS launch offering, EA have provided a far more robust handheld experience. Full of the charm and character that has allowed the series to become such a success, The Sims 3: Pets is well worth the investment of your Simoleons.

Pal Gaming Network: review De Sims 3 Beestenbende (PS3)

The Sims 3: Pets is little more than a re-release of last year’s console port with a few endearing, inessential features thrown into the mix. The core game is still solid fun, but it is disappointing that a little more effort was not made to render this anything more than a minor revision of a known quantity.

Kmart Gamer Review van De Sims 3 Beestenbende voor PS3

The whole feel of The Sims 3 Pets console is much more cartoonish than the PC version and that’s either a good or bad thing depending on personal taste. Mysteries add much more finite goals to the gameplay and, considering how much I enjoyed Castaway Stories, the direction was a welcomed addition. However, you’re not locked into doing any of that stuff so if you just want to wander around Sugar Maple Coast then go right ahead.

Q&A met producer George Pigula over De Sims 3 Beestenbende (consoles)

10. What was the funniest (printable!) thing that happened during development?

The team has a lot of very funny screenshots from the development stages on The Sims 3 Pets. When we first introduced kittens and puppies to the game, they sometimes became stretched out to the full size of adult dogs and cats in certain animations. So your Sim could be petting a kitten and then nuzzling the kitten, and all of sudden the kitten would become stretched out and looked smashed. I also remember puppy ears being quite humorous for a while. In the beginning stages, puppies all had full-sized dog ears. It made all the puppies look like they could take off by flapping their ears too quickly.

Gamesmedia Pro: review De Sims 3 Beestenbende (consoles)

All told then the main question that seem’s to be on everyone’s lips is the games value for money factor, but having stated the reasons why we think it is already we just hope that gamers will see The Sims 3 Pets for the stand alone that it most definitely is, s opposed to the expansion pack that it is billed as. Great graphic’s from EA play again, that have become standard in this much-loved franchise, as well as superb sound and lighting. The storyline are engaging and offer some light-hearted entertainment and comedy moments, but at the same time they are inoffensive and very easy on the younger audience.

Gaming Age: review van De Sims 3 Beestenbende

Basically, it’s a Sims game. I think it’s well put together, easy to control and geared for players that enjoy making up their own fun. It has a little more focus this time out thanks to the mysteries you can solve, but I didn’t find the addition of pets to be all that thrilling. The voice command feature could be completely absent as far as I’m concerned, and I’m not sure that the additional content featured here is worth another $50 for console owners. I’d definitely suggest renting before you buy, but I enjoyed it enough that I’m sure I’ll revisit it again in the future.
