As revealed in the EA’s Q3 earnings report earlier in the year, The Sims 3 will finally make it’s way to consoles, and handhelds, in time for Christmas.
The Sims 3 will be heading to the Playstation 3, Xbox 360, Wii and DS “this Fall,” with the console versions picking up some “all-new” features such as “Karma powers,” which affect whether your sim can “get lucky” or experience an “epic fail.” The Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 versions will also feature Facebook connectivity, alerting friends when you get a Trophy or Achievement.
The Wii version, however, gets it’s own beach town, complete with it’s own residents, careers and “lifetime wishes.” The DS also gets it’s own exclusive “story mode,” which allows players to go through a “complete lifetime simulation.”
