      Ye Olde Sims

      You don't mess with success.

      So when you're dealing with The Sims -- the most popular PC video game franchise ever made, with over 120 million copies sold  -- you
      could certainly forgive publisher EA the cautious approach it's taken to changing up the series' tried-and-true virtual dollhouse gameplay. Past
      attempts to break the Sims mold, like 2002's abortive The Sims Online, haven't
      fared well, but for their next Sims release EA is ready to try something new.

      Or something old, as it turns out. Very old.

      The Sims Medieval, which releases on March 22 on PC and Mac, takes Sims fans way back to the Middle Ages, where they'll discover simulated life's rather different than they

      iPad 2 - Apple As Apple ramps up the hype machine on the iPad 2, app publishers are hoping to ride the coattails to higher sales.

    • Hit online game Free Realms coming to PS3

      Easter Eggs

      Free Realms Free-to-play online games are a sensation on the PC, but they're pretty much absent on the home consoles.

      Thanks to Sony Online, that's about to change.

      The company has announced plans to release the hugely popular, kid-friendly Free Realms on the PS3 on March 29th, making it the first free-to-play virtual world game to arrive on a console.

      It might not enjoy the instant name recognition of World of Warcraft, but Free Realms actually boasts more registered players, with nearly 17 million to Wacraft's 12 million. While users aren't required to pay a monthly fee, they can access more quests and higher level caps by becoming paid members, and can purchase loads of items and weapons via
