The Sims 3: Pets (Limited Edition) Review

The ownership of pets, we're often told, is one of the secrets to a long life, and that's a secret that Electronic Arts has taken full advantage of in extending the life span of each of its Sims games for the last 11 years. The Sims 3: Pets marks the third pet-based expansion for the franchise, and like the others, it makes its appearance just as the parent title shows signs of losing momentum after the release of multiple expansions. While The Sims 3: Pets doesn't change much of the core gameplay aside from extending many of the properties of human sims to their animal companions, its wealth of customization options and its welcome focus on horses make this expansion a treat for any animal lover. While the console version takes place in a cramped suburban community and requires enduring loading screens every time you want to move behind the immediate cluster of houses, its PC counterpart centers on the spacious expanses of the Appaloosa Plains. It's a nice place to hang around, particularly if you're in the mood to try out the horse content. Not only are there a decent number of ranch-style country homes available to move into, but facilities specifically aimed at improving the lives of your equine friends dot the landscape.

The Sims 3 Pets

First and foremost, unlike the Sims 3 Pets for PC, the console versions are not an expansion, but a standalone title that's essentially a furry redux of the original Sims 3. (There's a Sims 3 Plus Pets for PC that includes the original game as well.) Just to cut to the chase, for those who want a quick console breakdown, the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions don't include horses and take place in Sugar Maple Coast instead of Appaloosa Plains. Of course, that first point of difference may be the dealbreaker for longtime Sims fans, but if you're a console owner who's looking for an entry point into the series, look no further than Sims 3 Pets. As if you couldn't tell from the extremely straightforward title, Sims 3 Pets emphasizes man's furry friends and transforms them to the point of near human Simhood. Just like regular Sims, cats and dogs (Simcats and Simdogs?) have six basic needs that need to be satisfied like spinning plates, with the only exception being that a Sim's need for Hygiene has been replaced with a need for Destruction. A Sim will still have to bathe pets on occasion (they can't wash themselves), unless you want a smelly carpet on four legs. And animals get dirty quickly due to their knack for digging, hunting, furniture chewing, and projectile vomiting, which all help expel their destructive energy.

The Sims 3: Pets

The Sims isn't about death-defying leaps, state-of-the-art graphics, or fine-tuned physics. The Sims is a canvas. It's a series of tools presented to paint any kind of picture you want, to tell the story you want to tell. Electronic Arts and The Sims Studios just keep adding more tools to the chest and more colors to the palette and The Sims 3: Pets is no exception. While originally a series born on PC, it made its most respectable jump to consoles with last year's The Sims 3 and continues the trend with the addition of pets this year. While fun, The Sims 3: Pets is just like The Sims 3, but with new species, new quests, and new powers. The Sims 3: Pets (Console) Video Review In The Sims 3: Pets on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, the controls, the user-interface, the graphics, and the technical problems return from last year. This means that at a glance, it feels like the exact same game. If you speed up time to tackle activities more quickly, the characters will stutter around the game world completing their tasks. If you try to move between any given area of Sugar Maple Coast (the town unique to the console versions of The Sims 3: Pets) you'll get hit with a load screen. But problems aside, The Sims 3: Pets' depth and complexity is robust.

The Sims 3: Pets Limited Edition

Both of the previous Sims games received pet-related installments, and now the inevitable has arrived for The Sims 3. The new content includes dozens of breeds of dogs and cats, as well as the ability to control the pets directly. The additions give a little more dimension to your neighborhood, but The Sims 3: Pets on consoles isn't quite a fan's best friend. One of the primary appeals of Sims expansion packs is that their effects are cumulative. When you buy a new add-on, the world of your sims grows a little bit and you have access to the full spectrum of items and features. That's how the series has worked on PC for years, but on PS3 and 360, Pets isn't an expansion. It's a standalone game. That's good news for people who haven't played The Sims 3 on console yet, but terrible news for those who have. The Sims 3 Pets doesn't work with your previous Sims 3 saves, so you aren't just adding pets to the lives of your sims. You're starting over. If you're fine with a fresh start, you'll find all of the mechanics that distinguished the console iterations of The Sims 3 intact. The karma powers are a hilarious way to mess with the lives of your sims, and the challenges give players a nudge toward some cool rewards without making them follow a linear storyline.
