Games for Windows magazine newest cover features a Sims 3 first look exclusive.  The game will now include "a wide-open, constantly changing neighborhood -- a much bigger sandbox, if you will, and a much more complex simulation" according to 1up.  They also referecne the image to the right saying "the town and park you see on the cover image to the right exist in the same seamless space as your Sims' household, and what you do outside your home now matters as much as what you do within." This is a really interesting development in my opinion and might bring in a lot of players who hadn't like The Sims in the past and also those who haven't even played The Sims before.  We may be in for even more information on March 19th as well according to The Sims 3 teaser site, so stay connected with Console Central for the latest updates.
