Yeah, love this game so much. Still play it at-least once a week. Sims 4 may have introduced me to the sims franchise but sims 3 made me fall in love with it. 2355 hrs down and more to go Happy birthday!!! <3

Also looks like simpoints are 50% off

I still love TS3, even though it broke my first computer as it couldn't handle the game after adding some expansion packs (I knew nothing of computers back then) and I lost so many saves due to errors. I have a laptop that can handle it now and I play sometimes (though I haven't played in a long time). Think I'll play a little bit this week. Happy 10th birthday TS3 (my dog is also turning 10 in June)!

TS3 is the first in the franchise I ever played. I bought it for my 3ds and then eventually for my PC. At the time I didn't know a thing about specs and stuff, and the laptop I had barely ran the game. Speed 3 was like normal speed. It was terrible but I dealt with it because I loved the game. I eventually got a better computer, and then I discovered EPs and SPs. The first EP I bought was Supernatural and then eventually bought everything else. So really, all of my best Sims moments were in TS3.

This was my very first memory in the game. It was captured in 2013, August:

Ahhh, so many memories! I would post pictures but I am unable to because I am not yet a full member.

Hey, merging two threads about The Sims 3 anniversary into a single one to keep all the comments together. Merging had a hiccup there and I think I fixed it now but if someone is missing any posts please let me know so I can find them! (Sorry!)

I love using the CASt tool. So this outfit that my SS is wearing in the picture is using the pattern that I had created in CASt.

I've even used it to show off the other uses for the patterns on other things as well... :)

And then this AMC (American Motors Company) logo that I'd made in my paint tool and then added to CASt so that I could use it in the game... :)
