My favorite thing to do when Apple (which is company controlled by MechaHitler from the bowels of hell) does something particularly evil is read the comments of delusional Apple cultists. This one in particular is good.

“You don’t see it, but as example, keeping 32bit support makes that developers don’t update their apps to 64bits because “they still working”, because of this they can’t drop the support, they would lose a lot of people because then they would stay in a older windows version, and btw 32bits apps have limitations as less RAM capacity and shorter instructions. Also I’m sure that the system can’t evolve faster because of this, they have to check every thing to be compatible with a system from more than 20 years ago.”

Oh no! You mean that Apple would have make sure things were compatible thus DOING THEIR JOB? THE HORROR. Well, I guess when you belong to the cyber dictatorship that is Apple products you have to justify their decisions somehow. Anyway, I’m going to play The Sims 2 now.

Have fun with your inferior Mac products and TS4 EPs, douche canoes.

Editing the source code of a game is not simple, especially if it has had many different programmers working on it.

Now, if we take into account the incredible amount of expansions this game has, the task becomes a colossal one, making it much simpler to create a new version of it, which is why we have The Sims 4. From a programming and developmental perspective, it’s probably easier to remaster The Sims 1 than it is to remaster and fix The Sims 3.

However, after seeing some of the comments about the Mac port being bad, I’m skeptical. What were you guys’ experiences with playing Sims 3 on Mac?
Also, if they do update Sims 3, I hope they do a Super Collection like they did with 2.
