Yup that’s right the Sims are coming to facebook, the announcement was made at E3 a couple of weeks ago. EA’s seems to be quite clear about its intentions to go social with plans to convert or shall we say modify many of their existing franchises to be mobile and social compatible. Games like Farmville and Mafia Wars have already tapped into a huge user base for Zygna and EA looks determined to follow.

Although a release date hasn’t formally been announced a facebook fanpage for the game seems to be the first place we’ll probably hear about any major announcements. You can also check out the official announcement trailer below.

So what does everyone else think ? Excited and ready to sign up or a project doomed to fail ?
