For those starting up their Sims 3 game, you have noticed the message of a new patch. Several people are having problems with this patch, like unable to install or game problems.
I too have experienced this and fortunately, after re-installing the patch worked. It seems that certain mods, like the censorpatch causes this. If you have a backup of the original file, first place it back before applying the patch. If you haven't, search for it on the game cd.

Visesims Sims3 Review Part 1
The Sims 3 Review by Visesims.
Install and Game Launcher
First of all, I went to pick up the game right after i got up from bed, so i was one of the first people to play the game in Melbourne Australia. Now, the install went well on my Notebook running Windows Vista 32bit and 2gb of ddr2 ram, did not have a single problem, so the install took about 30 minutes and right after that the game ran smoothly. No errors or anything. the new sims3 Game launcher is a pretty neat tool because it handles your custom content and photos and Sims, Houses etc. if you want to add them to the Sims 3 site.

Game play and Issues.
The Sims3 Game Launcher.
The Sims3 game play was much better and much free than other Sims games. The best part is there’s no loading times when you go to a community lot or Next door or to a Sims house. This is the best feature of the game. So the graphics i was in two minds because they don’t look as good as i thought, but the issue was i had my settings on low not Med or high, you can make the game look very good if you change the settings, just to let you know you have to have at lest 2gb of ram and a top of a range Graphic card to play the game on High with no slow lag. (If you want to make the game faster read www.visesims.co.nr for more information) Now, the issue was it was to hard and different to hover around the Sims world , but will get used to if you played the game more than once. Now i was playing the Sims for 2 days now, and i had found that when you move into a home, there’s surprise in the homes the Sims Agency hasn’t told you about like when i moved into a lot, there was a house ghost which i never knew about till night.
My Sims Lot:
My Sim Cooking Dinner.
My Sim On His Bike. (You can see the Graphics not looking good but don't worry that's because when you go to a lot, the game will load the textures and full graphics each time you go to a lot)
Stay Tuned for Part 2 when we go in depth on CAS (Create a Sim) and Faqs !
