I have the sims 1, 2, and 3 on console...a little obsessed, I know. I also have the sims urbz, but I could never get into it...couldn't really understand what was going on. The sims 3 for ps3 plays pretty much the same, but the only cc you download is from ea and it's insanely expensive. It's kind of nice because it forces you to actually play the game and not be distracted by shiney cc and mods. lol There's no real expansions, but there is a pets version that plays by itself.
