Both games have their strengths and weaknesses. It’s up to you to decide from our list what aspects of Sim life are more important to you. Unfortunately, the answer to that question is not a simple one. The Sims 4 - which one has better expansion packs? In The Sims 3, the Gallery isn’t the easiest to access or search through and in The Sims 4 they’ve added a Gallery button as well as optimizing the search functionality. The Sims 4 also includes more dragging and adjusting, rotating and moving of whole rooms, and full integration of the Gallery feature where players upload their family and lot creations for other players to use. This allows for more flawless use of both features all in one place. While not directly related, The Sims 4 has introduced a more streamlined, accessible build and buy mode, combining the two modes which were separate before. In The Sims 4, they’re just decorative items you can position outside your home but not get in.

In The Sims 3 though, it’s argued that it’s the best they’ve integrated cars and other transport into the Sims universe with more to choose from and more ways to interact with them. The Sims 3 has story progression but The Sims 4 has SmartSimĬars were introduced in The Sims 2 allowing players to drive and own their own ride so that they could travel around. It’s no surprise really that a game that came out later would have access to a new game engine and it does. Whilst The Sims 3 has the open world, as we’ve previously mentioned, at times that comes with a cost of slower processing and glitches. Thankfully, as you might expect from a newer game, what The Sims 4 lacks in lot space it makes up for in its ability to run more smoothly, and with more stability than its predecessor.

170 lots will really add weight to the game though depending on how you play. In The Sims 4, the biggest world is currently San Myshuno from The Sims 4: City Living with 30 lots. Which leads us to The Sims 3’s abundant offering of 170 lots to choose from and fill (if you wish!). In The Sims 4, the lot placement is specifically allotted and you only have so many free spaces to choose from. You can also change the land surface to make it suitable for a lot to pop down onto it. In The Sims 3, you can place all sorts of lot sizes across the world wherever they fit on a flat plot of free space.
