    MCV - Two new Sims 3 articles

    MCV has just published two new articles for the upcoming Sims 3.

    The first article, The Sims 3 targets real gamers discusses on how The Sims 3 will branch away from its simulation past and adds in more gamer-ness with more challenges and depth for gamers. Is this such a smart move to take away the core audience of the game? I know quite a few people who play the Sims on the fact that it isnt a hardcore game and that they enjoy the simplicity of what the game has to offer. If this is taken away, would those same folks move up the ladder with the next revision or go on to find a substitute?

    The second article is called Franchise Focus. It basically consists of most of the rest of the previews that were released, but it ties in with the first article above.
    With Will Wright having stepped back from The Sims to concentrate on Spore, its clear that Rod Humbles MMO past has encouraged him to move The Sims away from its simulation background towards a gameplay experience which will appeal more to existing gamers while The Sims 3s increased sophistication and depth will excite current fans who would not otherwise characterise themselves as gamers. The Sims is continuing its inexorable march towards becoming the games industrys biggest ever franchise.
