Yes. Sims 3 has toddlers, it's fun to teach them skills. Sims 3 is also easier to figure out. There's a lot of expansion packs with Sims 3. Right now Sims 4 only has 1

To ME, it is,,,the realism, an detail can't be beat if you want realism for your Sims. If you want a CHEAP CARTOONIE and problematic game, get Sims 4. I won't lie, or sugar coat the fact that Sims 3 also has it's glitches also. Occasionally it will freeze, crash, and lag a bit in creator mode, an buy mode. But if you can accept this, and do as I have recommended by perodically SAVE an continue playing, Sims 3 is FAR SUPERIOR to Sims 4. I belong to one of the MANY Sims fan groups on facebook, an I see an read the horror stories of what goes on with Sims 4. It's not pretty.

Hello Gloria, I hope you are enjoying The Sims 3 University Life Expansion Pack, as much as I did. - To answer your question, yes, ALL updates are necessary when purchasing a brand new expansion pack. When the game was created, it was created to cater to the game version at THAT point in time. Since The Sims 3 is a game powered by Origin, it gives opportunity to make your game as up to date and fluid as possible; and considering how long ago it was created vs. when you purchased it, there have been many updates for The Sims 3 sense. Thus, your computer needs an opportunity to catch itself up with the newest version of the game so that you have the best utmost experience. I hope that this helps and wish for you to keep this thought in mind when purchasing any additional The Sims 3 Expansion Packs, as you will run into the same situation. Not all updates show immediate, apparent results. Some updates are simply code related and with make your gameplay more fluid / less glitchy. Again, I hope that this has helped. Happy Simming! :-)

If you have SC4, keep it. None of the upgrades to the new edition is worth while. Very limited in size of cities. I personally am not a fan and unhappy with it.

As long as you don't have a problem with "woohoo" and an 11 yr. old. I believe all the sims3 games have "woohoo" option.

I ran the FSX demo (in Windows Bootcamp), worked very well. Of course you won't be able to run it on full specs, no notebook out there can do that. But for a notebook, I was pretty impressed. But if you are on a mac anyway, you should consider X-Plane 9. It is much more realistic and the graphics have really been beefed up from the previous release. You can download a demo also to check it out. I had all the Flight Simulator resleases since 1998, but am dissapointed with FSX, it just is too cartoony and unrealistic. I am now hooked on X-Plane!

Yes. However, be wary of Island Paradise. It freezes often and you have to reset the Sim every time.

Hi Darlene, I can't say that it is better than 2011, however I can say better than 1998 which was the last one I had. I love this one, for me graphics are softer, still vivid, tons of pre made items you can customize and the set up is a bit different for creating your own, I asume they did the most popular templates, I hope this helps ;0), if anything there is I believe a 90 day money back guarantee, won't hurt to see if you love it!

Yes you can minecraft and sims but, you can only play sims 3 on a lower graphics setting. anyother sims games older than sims 3 you play on a higher graphics setting.

You have to have the base game in any Sims series to play any of the expansions. Seasons is an expansion so no it is not a substitute.

When first installing I had a bunch of force close issues, but I was able to make it work. If you're not set on sims 2 I would suggest 3 instead, which is made to run Windows 8.1
