Sims 3 Next Year

March 21, 2008 | by Christopher Nickson

Game maker Electronics Arts announces that it will release the next version of the game in 2009.

It’s one of the best-selling video games ever, with almost 100 million sold. The Sims has become a cultural icon. Now, after three years of planning, Electronic Arts has announced that The Sims 3 will go on sale next year.
According to the company, users will be able to fully explore the neighborhood, with unlimited customization for characters, who can be given unique personalities through a combination of traits. EA says everything can be customized, from houses to neighborhoods.
"In The Sims 3, Sims can go beyond the boundaries of their home lot, and immerse themselves in an open, living neighbourhood, interacting with other Sims using our new deeper personality system," said Rod Humble, head of The Sims Studio. "It is this type of open-ended gameplay that inspires endless creative possibilities. In addition the new goals and rewards systems will give players of all kinds from core gamers to storytellers the ability to enjoy long-term gameplay."

I can't wait till the makers of GTA4 work with the makers of the Simms and put them together in one complete game. That would be fun.
