			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Oh my gosh!!! Can you believe <strong>The Sims 3</strong> has been released yesterday (18 May 2009)? I haven&#8217;t really have fun with The Sims 2, yet The Sims 3 is now available in the market!!</p>

<blockquote><p>The freedom of The Sims 3 will inspire you with endless creative possibilities and amuse you with unexpected moments of surprise and mischief. Create millions of unique Sims and control their lives. Customize their appearances and personalities. Build their homes &#8211; design everything from exquisitely furnished dream homes to quaint cottages. Then, send your Sims out to explore their ever-changing neighborhood and to meet other Sims in the town center. With all-new quick challenges and rewarding game play, The Sims 3 gives you the freedom to choose whether (or not) to fulfill your Sims&#8217; destinies and make their wishes come true.</p></blockquote>

<p>Now the graphic is even better than The Sims 2!! Too bad, I don&#8217;t think I can play this game for the mean time, because the system requirement is high..</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>EA Games is really planning for a BIG addiction!! I just can&#8217;t believe that The Sims 3 is going to be released in 2009.  I have to admit that I enjoy playing The Sims and it is rather addictive.  And when The Sims 2 was released, I was so excited and finally got my hands on it.  However due to computer spec issue, I didn&#8217;t have much experience with The Sims 2.</p>
<p>The Sims 2 has very nice graphic comparing with the previous version. But I&#8217;ve seen some screeny of The Sims 3 and guess what? That is really f*cking awesome!!! It looks 3 x more smooth and realistic!!</p>
<p align="center"><img src="http://www.xiaoyenzi.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/03/thesims3.jpg" alt="thesims3.jpg" width="499" height="279" /><br />
<em>Cooking in the kitchen &#8211; the texture is now more smooth</em></p>
<p><img src="http://www.xiaoyenzi.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/03/grill.jpg" alt="grill.jpg" hspace="3" vspace="3" align="left" />Oh, talk about cooking, there&#8217;s one thing that I&#8217;d like to mention. The Sims need social life, so once in a while throwing a party or two like family grill will boost their mood bar. Hygene is also another issue. If you place your grill set inside the house, you might upset your Sims. The best place is to put it outside the house, say, beside the pool.</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t have a grill set at home.  I didn&#8217;t know about there&#8217;s something called the <a href="http://outdoor-living.hardwarestore.com/58-233-grill-covers.aspx">grill cover</a> until I saw some information about it from the Internet.  That&#8217;s because I never see my Sims cover the grill set with something.</p>
<p>LOL. Ok, back to The Sims 3, I just can&#8217;t wait to see the product! I think it&#8217;s time for me to save up a little and buy a better box for gaming. I have problems playing The Sims 2 in my current desktop PC. It will be worse if I were to play The Sims 3 using that old box of mine.</p>
