Also watch out for a replay from Real Racing that I will upload soon to show you guys both the graphics and the easy video uploading, as well as I will make a full in-depth review on it. Definitely worth the $10 in my opinion.

The Sims 3 – $9.99 – 9.5/10 – Get it from iTunes: http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=317904170&mt=8

This is an in-depth application review on The Sims 3, which is one of my new favorite apps. It’s definitely quite pricey, but I don’t regret buying it at all. The few crashes and somewhat long loading screens really didn’t bother me, and I’ve been having a lot of fun with my Sim. Be sure to post in the comments if you figure out who mine is.

I also continued to change the format of the video some, be sure to let me know what you guys think.
