64 - bit version

The Sims 3 is the most popular franchise in the Sims Series, but EA Games doesn't care about us players because they have proven it in the past that they only care about the money. So don't expect EA Games to update or upgrade the current 32 bit version to a 64 bit version like they did for players on Apple systems. 

I expect now that EA Games has been sold the new owners will not put any more money into the Sims Franchise because it was and still is looking for more money coming from the Sims 4, and would like us all to move over to that series of the Sims. For me, I'll never move over to the Sims 4 because it is nothing but a money grab, and I can say this based on the number of expansion packs, stuff packs and other items they want you to buy. In fact there are 10 times as much to buy from the Sims 4 Series than any of the others series in the Sims Franchise.
