Let's talking farming on Facebook. There farming market of Facebook is saturated with games trying to be like Farmville and Farm Town. I gave up on Farm Town after playing Farmville for a couple of weeks. I am now back to playing both after a couple month hiatus from Farm Town. There is much to be liked about both.

Farmville is wonderful for it's graphics, ease of use, and finding items to share and get from friends. I am always watching my Farmville feed for found penguins, cats, or mystery eggs.

Farm Town has a feature that Farmville just hasn't been able to compete with - the ability to harvest and plow on other farms. Going to the marketplace and getting jobs to plow and harvest from other farmers make it faster to earn XP.

Which do you like more? And no, there is not a choice for you can't decide. I'm not letting you take the easy way out.

Next February brings us the first stuff pack for "The Sims 3." Stuff packs are mini-expansions with only clothes and objects. No major gameplay elements included. Title leaves little mystery as to what the pack will include. Sims will get modern, hip furniture for all rooms in the house. Plus, the up and coming Sims who need to impress bosses can benefit from the new clothes.

Gamestop has the release date listed as February 2, 2010. Suggested price is $19.99, typical for stuff packs. My suggestion - wait for sales. If this pack continues tradition, you'll feel better about your purchase. Though with the special anniversary gifts of a heart shaped vibrating bed, the electric guitar, and the aquarium, some of us may not have the will power to wait.

I was surprised "The Sims 3" only came with one neighborhood installed. We then got another neighborhood for registering on their web site. Two options are just not enough for us Simmers. Finally EA has changed the situation. "The Sims 3 Create A World" tool puts the terrian in our hands.

It is not an easy tool to learn. It will take patience and practice. Reading the documentation is a must. Lucky for us less talented group, new worlds can be uploaded to the exchange.
