I'm Joe, 19 from the UK. I spent most of my teenage years addicted to the Sims 2, and was infamous for my meshes; you may remember me as JosephTheSim on MTS2 or Lord Dragonstone on Sapphire Sims. However, when I moved to college, the real world started to take over and suddenly I didn't have any time for the sims.

Now I have nearly finished my first year of University, I'm going to need some kind of outlet during the summer holidays, I may even start meshing again.

So, I have ordered the Sims 3 and am waiting for it's arrival. Watch this space... Once I master Sims 3 no doubt I will start making and uploading content... Who know's where it will end?

So I have been playing the game now for about 12hours straight LOL! And I am totally hooked! I was so enthusiastic after seeing how my sims personality traits affected daily living, however, finding a soulmate is just as difficult for my sim as it is my me LOL!

I'm loving the new game play too, way better, with less loading screens, although it was initially slow at the start - runs like a dream now! Keep checking back! :)

Slowly getting more and more annoyed at the amount of bugs with graphics, even on the lowest settings and with a recommended card i still seem to be having graphics problems! ARGGGGG! Time for a new laptop I think!
