E3 2011: Social Sims Liked by EA

Posted June 6, 2011 by David Radd

Electronic Arts showed off the Sims Social for the first time during their E3 2011 press conference. The game will be the series' first ever take on social gaming, and will be coming to Facebook soon.

Unlike the usual gameplay of the Sims, where players have control over all the virtual entities in the game, Sims Social will be populated by other people, namely people you know on Facebook. Relationships can run the gamut, from rivalries to romance (though 'woo hoo' has to be mutually agreed upon by both parties).
