It's not a perfect port of the original, so if you have access to a PC gaming system, I would still suggest that you stick with the original Sims 3 for the best experience.

If you don't, however, the port really isn't shabby and is probably the closest you're going to get to the original, so go ahead and give it a shot.

The Sims 3 for Xbox and PS3 not only has the spirit of the original one from PC, but offers the same gameplay and options. This is great news for the console owners, who will have the option of controlling the lives of their Sims: where they live, who they fall in love with, their job and their dreams for the future.

Unfortunately, the control system and the loading times remind us we're not playing on a computer. The console version of the PC megahit lacks fluidity, though it's still fun in its own right. The Sims 3 commits the greatest crime a game possibly can: I want to have fun, but it just won't let me.

As expected, the virtual playground that is the Sims doesn't convert very well into the console world. Even with the added gameplay components like Karma, the experience is very much like Sims 3-lite compared to the larger world in Sims 3 for the PC.

While the core Sims experience is still great and addictive, and the Karma powers are alternately useful or hilarious, The Sims 3 on consoles has a few issues that make it less preferable to the PC original.
