It’s finally HERE! Not with a Bang, or a POP…. but more of a soft release for Australia.

You can now download “The Sims Mobile” to your smart phone and take the Sims 4 with you!

This pocket version of “The Sims” is the one I have always dreamed about.

It feels nostalgic, fun, and the details are amazing. It is superior, compared to “Free Play” and I am loving the format. As with previous Sims games on Mobile, this has a very simple interface. You start with a blank sim template and are moved into a starter home. As you are introduced to the format by a “tutorial”, you will start to unlock basic things such as a fridge, shower, career opportunities and different clothing, accessories… you name it! This is what has me hooked so far. I am an avid fan of collecting games… Animal Crossing, Pokemon, most RPG’s…. you name it! This has sold me and I will probably be playing this one every chance I get.

The coolest part, there are challenges! Meet a new sim? Challenge to make friends! New day at the office, Challenge to do your best! The more “Energy” you have means you can do more things, and succeed. This is where the “paying” comes in but of course the Energy slowly builds back over time. I have been playing this for a couple of days now and I have found the best way is to make your sim work, while you are at busy, then they will do their thing, while you do yours… Rinse and Repeat! Set them up for the next few hours, and off they go. It’s like a tamagotchi but The Sims!

There are Micro-transactions… after all, it’s not only an EA Game, but it is also a Mobile Game. Personally, I don’t mind spending a couple of dollars once I have deemed a game “good enough” for my hard earned Simoleons and of course, you can play the game without having to spend real money, and that’s how I plan to stay. (For now, at least!)

If you haven’t already; go and download it! It’s Free to start and it’s already on the App Store and Google Play Store in Australia. Let me know if you like it in the comments below. 🙂

I been following this site for a while and I like the work, but I don’t like this review. how can you say “You can now download “The Sims Mobile” to your smart phone and take the Sims 4 with you!” at the start, it’s like I’m reading an ad and all the “!” points in this post are too much. The writer is promoting the game and not reviewing it which doesn’t help me and just wastes my time

PlayStation has announced two of the games that will be featured in July’s PlayStation plus lineup. They include Pro Evolution Soccer 2019 and Horizon Chase Turbo.

Pro Evolution Soccer 2019

From Konami’s long-running sports franchise, Pro Evolution Soccer 2019 features a huge selection of real-world licensed leagues alongside hundreds of familiar players, bringing the thrill of global competition directly to your living room.

Create magic moments on and off the pitch, with each player possessing their own traits that will affect how they react in the moment, while myClub and Master League modes allow you to pursue your own club career. Enjoy local play for up to 4 players, or go online and test your skills against the world.

Update: PES 2019 will no longer be part of the deal as it was removed for unknown reasons by Sony. Instead everyone will get Detroit: Become Human which is an excellent game! You can find out review here.

Horizon Chase Turbo

Prepare for a blast of pure ‘90s nostalgia with Horizon Chase Turbo, a love-letter to the iconic, just-one-more-go racers of the arcade’s golden age. Drawing inspiration from the likes of Out Run, Top Gear and Rush, developer AQURIS Game Studio captures the essence of the 16-bit era with style, with modern visuals, a soundtrack with insane arpeggios and classic split-screen couch multiplayer.

Play solo or grab up to three friends. You’ll pilot your car through extraordinary places, watching the sun setting, facing rain, snow, volcanic ashes and even severe sandstorms.
