Advice please - do I want console or PC?

[Tom Simkins]

I say PC. This is mainly because the PC is broader than the consoles. Personally, I only have played the PC and the Wii versions, so I really cannot comment on the PS3's version. The Differences between the Wii and PC are as follows (assuming the wii and PS3 are alike)

1. On the wii, you can only make one family per neighborhood. I mean you can only go into create a sim once, While on the PC you can create as many families as you like (but can only play one at a time of course)

2. The wii version has an "objective" of making a family as happy as possible by fulfilling the wishes of the sims. There is an ending point to this game. On the PC, the game is open ended.

3. Of course, the Wii's version is simpler than the PC's version.

As for the custom objects, I don't think that it is possible yet except that you can build your house on the PS3 (Not wii )

In summery, I say PC unless you got a crappy computer or want a simplified game.
