The Sims Gets a Sassy Makeover

by Hannah Morrill

Maybe you never got into The Sims. (I did. It was college. What can I say?) But this week, The Sims 3 launched, and even non-Simmer's will be intrigued. This time around, they're allowing you to customize every single aspect of your Sim's appearance. (Read: no more stiff, generic looking automatons.) Want a Sim with Angelina's lips and jawline? Done. Or, channel your inner hairstylist by recreating Victoria Beckham's famous bob. (You can even select her root color, base color, highlights, and the shade of the tips.) There's a color wheel for just about every drop of makeup you'd ever want to wear. And just because your closet might look a little paltry these days doesn't mean your Sim has to suffer: You have a choice of over 200 tops, 150 bottoms, 200 full body outfits, and (wait for it) 175 different pairs of shoes.
