The Sims 3 Possibly Delayed
EA’s biggest cash cow may have possibly been delayed, as the company told Edge that it is “evaluating the launch window”. The Sims 3, the third in the soul sucking money printer for EA, was initially pegged for release on February 20.
The publisher’s move is mirrored by the official UK site which now lists a “TBA” release date for the game; the US site likewise sports a rather vague “coming in 2009”. Online retailers – who are often the source of release dates and delays – disagree, however, with Amazon still marking the title for release on February 15, and GameStop and Best Buy indicating release in the days following February 20.
The Sims 3 is the third title in the immensely popular people simulation franchise that sucks the life and money out of gamers through millions (if not billions) of expansion packs and whatnot.
