Game Plan

What's your game plan for the day/weekend/week when you first get Sims 3?

I pre-ordered mine from Amazon and got 2 day delivery (the stores around here typically put out new games on the shelves Friday) and expect to get it on Friday.

My game plan? Install it when I get home, order pizza for me and the kids and play all weekend long! Already warned some of my friends on the game I play online (City of Villains) that I might disappear for a while. At least I got a 3 day weekend next weekend and can cram in some game play then.

First going to make a sims of me (see this entry) then going to make a sims of one of my original characters I write about.

I'll probably have to fight off the kids, though my youngest has been playing Sims 2 this weekend (I have all the expansion packs for that one) on the other computer. My oldest asked me if I had Sims 2 of my computer and I told her no, she asked if she could install it and I said no. That baby is for Sims 3, one of the reasons why I got a new computer ^_^

For now, you're locked in. There was talk about offering a neighborhood creation tool in the near future, but so far, that's all it is.. talk.

The game will ship with one neighborhood, Sunset Valley.

If you buy a legitimate copy of the game, you can get access to the Sims 3 store and buy a new neighborhood, Riverview.

Then I'll just do what I did in Sims 1 and delete all the EA content before replacing it with my own.

It is going to be weird not playing paranormal sims and going back to mostly norms. My neighborhood "La Morte" will have to wait a while before it comes to Sims 3.
