Mobile Photography Awards showcase stunning smartphone art
Erin Lodi | Published: Jan 30, 2013 at 19:39 UTC71
That was taken with a phone?
The winners of this year's Mobile Photography Awards may surprise you as you consider each was snapped with a smartphone. From detailed portraits from Alfred Pleyer to macro photography from Jim Mclaughlin to artistic representations from Aylin Argun, the winning selections are impressive regardless of the hardware (and software) involved.
A record number of entries were received in this year's competition, demonstrating increasing interest in mobile photography as an art form.
Thus far the winners of 20 categories have been announced, including the DPReview Connect category, which invited participants to share images that conveyed what the word "connect" means to them. Souichi Furusho of Japan won the category with his image titled "Image Pic #51." Runner up was Michal Koralewski of Poland for "Winter Time."
We've highlighted the category winners below; you can see all the winners and honorable mentions of each category on the Mobile Photography Awards website by clicking the category titles.
The Mobile Photography Awards will also announce its Photographer of the Year, ArtHaus Photo Essay winner and Founder's Choice recipients in early February.

The trolls here seem to miss the point that many of these images would not exist if the photographer had failed to choose the correct tool. These images aren't "prisoners" of the tech - in large part they wouldn't exist without the tech.

These are some lovely images that go to prove the point, which is made time and time again, that the camera used to take an image has no impact on artistic merit.
However, what is limiting is what can actually be done with these images due to the technical limitations of the equipment used. Already, on my screen, in terms of image quality, the technical limitations of the format are very self-evident.
I feel truly saddened that such wonderful images are prisoners of the technology that created them.
In many ways I am reminded of the popularity of 16mm sub-miniature photography that was around in the 50's and 60's when photographers strove to show decent pics could be taken with them. But try getting a quality 7"x5" print or even 6"x4". 35mm beat it hands down. But equally, 6x6 knocked 35mm into a cocked hat. As we used to say, a good big 'un beats a good little 'un.

Fantastic images and congrats to the winners. I must admit to using my iPhone camera more often than any of my other cameras. I'm still amazed at the capabilities of my handheld computer/camera/phone. It is nice to see respected entities such as DPReview and professional photographers like Dewitt Jones embrace mobile photography. I used to say the convergence of photography tools is coming, but it is already here.

We must remember - that the quality of your images is not created by a camera, it is the result of passion, experience, technique and a perfect synergy between the creative mind, the eye and the heart - today photographers get so caught up in the technology they forget the fundamentals and simplicity that is the essence of a powerful image. Instead of talking about what good photography should be, let your photographs do the talking, not the size and value of your equipment.
We must remember that a photograph can hold just as much as we put into it, and no one has ever approached the full possibilities of the medium.- Ansel Adams

OK I just have to chime in, as a husband and wife professional photographers team/iPhone addicts - I have to laugh at the ridiculous comments made by these self proclaimed professionals. They get so caught up in their egos and equipment. My lens is longer than yours -I have more megapixels than you- oh please give me a break! Lets try to remember all professionals were once amateurs and not one of them started out shooting with high-end expensive equipment, I'm also pretty sure that the first car they ever drove wasn't a Ferrari! I may be a bit biased, but my husband shoots his commercial work with a 4X5 Linhof camera with a Phase One digital back and he shoots all of his personal work with his iPhone 5-and I think the quality, lighting and POV of all of his work is outstanding.

Great comments and discussion. The Mobile Photography Awards are for photos shot and processed on...mobile phones and devices. Just like a Street Photography Awards would be for...street photos. Nothing wrong with categories and sub-genres of the medium. We at the MPA are thrilled at the art representing our Awards this year. Whether the images won in the VisualFX category or the Landscape category. It's all good. It's all subjective. Whiners will whine that the camera isn't as good as a DSLR. You're right. And your point is...?
6 upvotes
The point is it's not Mobile Photography, it's Phone Photography.
Cameras have always been mobile. A Ricoh R4 is 7 years old, is more 'mobile' than a phone, is much more flexible and delivers better IQ.
The negative comments are because for some reason this little scene insists on calling itself something and declaring it is exclusively so. That's a bit like Apple declaring they invented the mobile phone (which they would if they could get away with it).
Faux-exclusivity and fawning over substandard output is a huge turn-off. If the phone-photography scene was a little more modest and realistic with itself, then there'd be no problem.
2 upvotes
Dholl, this little scene is something that clearly threatens you. What exactly that threat is, is something you'll need to figure out yourself.
The Mobile Photography Awards attracted thousands of submissions from around the planet. People are choosing to participate in the movement - hence it's become real.
You denouncing it, whether through name-calling (they're all hipsters!), semantics (all cameras are mobile!!) or pixel peeping (what if it's taken with a big camera?) will not make it go away. Deal with it.
Oh and you know why this Mobile Photography thing exists? It's because people are having fun taking and making images on one device. The camera is only the starting point, it's the individuals personal vision that determines the final image.
Maybe you should take some photos with a mobile phone? It might help you lighten up.

I read this a lot that phone-photography scenesters come back at critics with strange accusations that the critics somehow feel "threatened", that they should "deal with it".
Some of us want to protect the craft of photography so that future generations continue to create stunning real-world images. If we identify a scene which is cheapening the craft while self-congratulating itself as championing it, then of course you should expect criticism.
Deal with it.
3 upvotes
No, you miss the point. Prior to the advent of mobile photography there were millions of people who never realized the joy of photography and/or image editing. Many of the folks who excel at mobile image making also shoot with "real" cameras. They also happen to love the immediacy of the mobile movement. There is no mutual exclusivity. Mobile photography is real and it's the best, most democratizing thing to happen to photography in long time.
Also, why are you perusing this wonderful site which is dedicated exclusively to mobile photography? Just wondering why you waste your time here. I don't spend any time, for instance, on right-wing talk radio blogs telling the wingnuts they're all crazy. Just doesn't make sense.

There are some very nice images here. Sure, they don't measure up to the best DSLR images, but they would have never been taken if photography was limited to $2000+ DSLR. The "craft of photography" is still best accomplished with a quality camera, but there are plenty of interesting shots taken with phones. Relax, let go of the hostility and just enjoy what you enjoy.

Dholl, you know you're on the Connect site right? The one with mobile photography in the bi-line?
Your noble quest to protect the 'craft of photography' is oddly admirable. The problem is that most photographers (mobile or not) are too busy taking photos to care whether something is classed as real photography.
Your continued conflation of fidelity with 'real' photography is unfortunate. It means that you are unable to enjoy an image without reducing it to it's pixel count. That makes you a technician, not a critic.
2 upvotes
By dholl (Feb 5, 2013)
A few points:
- pixel count has nothing to do with fidelity (this is one of the first lessons you learn once using larger sensor cameras, or older compacts with 3-5mp)
dpreview obviously want normal camera users to partake in this site, so here I am.
0 upvotes
It seems to me that dholl's main issues are a) he doesn't like the term "Mobile Photography" and would rather it be called "Phone Photography." And b) that the Mobile Photography scene is full of self-congratulating wannabees who have needlessly created a false category and are causing "harm" to the craft of photography.
As for a) Perhaps we should change the name of American Football to "Throw and Run Ball" while we're busy fixing the oft-confusing and oh-so vital semantic issues facing our world.
as for b) What is the harm in categories? Yes, it's "all" photography so why distinguish? Well, TV shows and Films are both motion pictures, so why can't The Sopranos win an Oscar?
It's worth noting that one of the winners in the MPA this year is a world-famous photojournalist who has worked with Nat-Geo for two decades. He likes the challenge of shooting with a mobile. Good for him. Good for everyone who takes pictures and enjoys the process. Nothing else matters.

So glad to discover from reading this discussion that I must not be a "normal camera user". LOL
For the past 50 years I've used film and now digital cameras. I have thoroughly enjoyed them all and revel in the opportunity to create images that are pleasing to myself and sometimes to others as well.
The tools of photography all have their advantages and disadvantages. The tools are also constantly evolving. This is a good thing. Otherwise we must all revert back to the 1800's if we truly wanted to be so called "purists".

Again, this tired old argument that in film days people also manipulated photos, and again bringing up the tired old name of Ansel Adams.
Reality Check: what percentage of all photographers (whether hobby, pro, artist or other) manipulated film photos after taking the pic? Probably about 0.01% That's one in every ten thousand.
The vast majority just took their pics, 'manipulated' them before the actual shot (as in choosing film, filters, waiting for good light, staging light etc). They were developed mostly by a local camera shop.
What is the percentage of phone photographers who manipulate their images after actually taking them? Vastly more...perhaps 50% of all phone users who consider themselves 'photographers'.
Think about what this means for the craft of photography.

No offense, dholl, but all photography is manipulated. From the choice of film used, the chemicals used to develop it, the paper used, hell, a black & white film photo is pure manipulation of reality!
Photography in and of itself is both the most & least honest form of art, which is what makes it so interesting to me. It captures an instant. Yet nothing in life is an instant. We add our own 1000 words to something that seems so real yet doesn't exist at all.
As a photographer, I'm so happy that with ALL this technology, CGI, video, 3D, etc, etc. that people still love static little two-dimensional images. That's a wonderful thing that is not only "protecting & saving" photography something that should be obsolete by now, but is celebrating it and expanding it!!
How awesome is that!?!

If you're going to criticise, at least make it constructive. Describing peoples' photographs as 'crappy instagram type shots' really is quite insulting.
The photos might not have the fidelity of those taken with a dedicated camera, but the composition and creativity on show is admirable. Admittedly I like some of the runners-up more than the winners.
The fact that you can't appreciate such works is kind of sad, and I guess partly explains why despite the money you've presumably sunk into your D800 the majority of your photos are uninspired at best. Try embracing creativity rather than gear for a change.

Have you seen or used the Nokia 808 smartphone?
It does amazing low light photography, it has lossless 2x zoom for 8MP images.
The sensor size is only slightly smaller than the Nikon V1 or Sony RX100, so bokeh is evident in portraits.
Using the widest angle setting on the Nokia 808 one can utilize the full 38MP which is more than adequate for enlarging.

Smartphone "photography" is possible but VERY limited in possibilities, even a good P&S cameras like RX100 can run circles around smartphones. There really no contest here.

"zoom --- who needs zoom? many people shoot prime.."
"-bokeh --- bokeh is tough on a smartphone camera, but fortunately, bokeh is not a requirement for art"

A good medium format camera can run circles around a good P&S camera. My 8x10 large format camera can run circles around a good medium format camera. What is your point?
"Photography art without bokeh is possible but VERY limited."
WHAT? Congratulations. That is the most preposterous thing I've ever read on this forum and I've read many preposterous things on this forum.
And if you read the comment you replied to - "I've printed 8x10 on my old 2mp camera." Smartphones are now over 10mp which means you can print larger than 8x10. You could easily print 13x19 enlargements with the latest smartphones. Of course, you'll have to deal with the detail you lack in the enlargement but not every image needs to be full of detail and "tack sharp".

Purely my opinion:
Two of these, the flower category and the zebra on the beach both look incredibly "fake" to me. How powerful was the off camera light needed to get that exposure on the zebra? It really looks like a composite image to me (after looking again, am I just supposed to accept that it is 2 shots edited?) and, if it isn't, is lugging around a massive light setup really "mobile" photography anymore? I could care less what sensor you capture something with but call it what it is.
The flower shot is also so heavily processed that it has a great surreal look but has lost, for me, any and all sense of being alive.
I have a number of shots from my phone which I consider up there with the best I have taken and appreciate the platform for its availability and respectable quality.
The portraits, girl in graveyard, b&w category and the kid with the water wings are all really really nice and show that a great scene is great no matter the gear.

For "artistic" photography, which I do purely as a hobby, I resorted to my phone quite some time ago and didn't want anything more ever since.
But for a family archive I still prefer my D300 as I find phones are not very good in most situations except for some static scenes on a bright sunny day. Things like indoor light, large distance, fast speed, video, and yes sometimes creamy bokeh still require a better tool than a cell phone IMO.

So why is there still this strange cultist thing about it being all about the phone part of the camera?
"That was taken with a phone?"
I'm left wondering why compact cameras aren't invited to these 'mobile' photography parties. Is it because they're not internet-enabled? What about when these cameras are internet-enabled? Is that still a separate "art-form"?
For reasons I still can't fathom, photography with a phone is being called its own "art-form", distinct from digital photography. If it's based on digital-art processing on-the-go, then the waters are gonna get muddy when dedicated cameras start offering these functions.

Agree. The only reason I can think it so, is that people are still somehow surprised that a phone, which 15 years ago was little more than that, can now take photos (just as good as those from a dedicated camera). Simply a nomenclature thing. My phone takes much better photos than my 10 year old digital camera.
I think those aware of, or interested in, technology aren't shocked, surprised or otherwise influenced by it being "taken with a phone".

- Title
- Wavelet-based collocation method for stiff systems in process engineering
- Author(s)
- Zhang, Tonghua; Tian, Yu-Chu; Tade, Moses O.
- Abstract
- Abrupt phenomena in modelling real-world systems such as chemical processes indicate the importance of investigating stiff systems. However, it is difficult to get the solution of a stiff system analytically or numerically. Two such types of stiff systems describing chemical reactions were modelled in this paper. A numerical method was proposed for solving these stiff systems, which have general nonlinear terms such as exponential function. The technique of dealing with the nonlinearity was based on the Wavelet-Collocation method, which converts differential equations into a set of algebraic equations. Accurate and convergent numerical solutions to the stiff systems were obtained. We also compared the new results to those obtained by the Euler method and 4th order Runge-Kutta method.

What are you even moaning about?
Are you actually sharing the facebook page with your friends? Do you like the game? Do you think they will be happy being invited to this game, with or without much changing?
Here an explanation. Not sure why you want it, but you could ask for it nicely and without being a sarcastic ignorant dickhead:
As stated before and others also agreed upon, those invited will probably won't be satisfied with the game will not stay. With or without the 1 set they will still quit, aside from few, which really doesn't benefit alteil as much it would if MORE would be encourage to stay. Is that clear?
I play to get the cards because i am actually playing every now and then and currently am sort of active, even with the game as it is and was and might still be in the near future. You need more cards for more options. Well i hope it does change and improve, i did spend money for it. Same goes for any other game i paid money for (including starcraft 2)
It takes minutes to post. I tend to post a lot on forums and i don't see what troubles you have regarding it. So piss off.

Kate Nash Concert Tickets
Watch independent singer-songwriter Kate Nash prove that sweet little British girls can pack a mean punch with some Kate Nash tickets. Although the 20 year old has lived a privileged lifestyle the young artist maintains an uncharacteristic Cockney accent that has often been compared to that of tough-girl Lily Allen. Conversely, her music style arguably rivals that of anti-folk artist Regina Spektor. Like Allen, Nash began promoting herself on the social networking website MySpace and has since topped music charts with the release of her debut album "Made of Bricks." With her catchy tunes, lilting voice and blunt lyrics, Nash's music teeters between folk and trip hop (think Portishead). Known for her tendency to dig the dagger a little deeper, Nash's hit "Foundations" harps on an argument that turns sour. Coupled with an acoustic guitar, Nash is a delight to see live and although she often wears cute little dresses you shouldn't be fooled, Nash sings exactly what's on her mind. So if a refreshing bold outlook is what you crave then pick up some Kate Nash tickets and behold a tiny pleasant package of fury. Remember, all of our Kate Nash tickets are guaranteed and are typically 10 to 20 percent cheaper than the competition.

Dynafit Dy.N.A. Race Carbon PoleView Larger Image
- Videos
When most skiers feel weighed down by their poles halfway up a skintrack, you're nearly revitalized with the Dynafit Dy.N.A. Race Carbon Pole. Made completely with carbon, the pole brings the rigid support you need to get to the top of that powder-capped peak without the weight holding you back. Its Touringplace Pro large basket gives fantastic traction in deeper snow. The unique XC Carbid tip stabs into steeper terrain, and the Gripzone grip prevents your pole from slipping out of your palm.

22 U.S. Code § 3310 - Employment of United States Government agency personnel
prev | next
(a) Separation from Government service; reemployment or reinstatement upon termination of Institute employment; benefits
(1) Under such terms and conditions as the President may direct, any agency of the United States Government may separate from Government service for a specified period any officer or employee of that agency who accepts employment with the Institute.
(2) An officer or employee separated by an agency under paragraph (1) of this subsection for employment with the Institute shall be entitled upon termination of such employment to reemployment or reinstatement with such agency (or a successor agency) in an appropriate position with the attendant rights, privileges, and benefits with [1] the officer or employee would have had or acquired had he or she not been so separated, subject to such time period and other conditions as the President may prescribe.
(3) An officer or employee entitled to reemployment or reinstatement rights under paragraph (2) of this subsection shall, while continuously employed by the Institute with no break in continuity of service, continue to participate in any benefit program in which such officer or employee was participating prior to employment by the Institute, including programs for compensation for job-related death, injury, or illness; programs for health and life insurance; programs for annual, sick, and other statutory leave; and programs for retirement under any system established by the laws of the United States; except that employment with the Institute shall be the basis for participation in such programs only to the extent that employee deductions and employer contributions, as required, in payment for such participation for the period of employment with the Institute, are currently deposited in the program's or system's fund or depository. Death or retirement of any such officer or employee during approved service with the Institute and prior to reemployment or reinstatement shall be considered a death in or retirement from Government service for purposes of any employee or survivor benefits acquired by reason of service with an agency of the United States Government.
(b) Employment of aliens on Taiwan
Any agency of the United States Government employing alien personnel on Taiwan may transfer such personnel, with accrued allowances, benefits, and rights, to the Institute without a break in service for purposes of retirement and other benefits, including continued participation in any system established by the laws of the United States for the retirement of employees in which the alien was participating prior to the transfer to the Institute, except that employment with the Institute shall be creditable for retirement purposes only to the extent that employee deductions and employer contributions, as required, in payment for such participation for the period of employment with the Institute, are currently deposited in the system's fund or depository.
(c) Institute employees not deemed United States employees
(d) Tax treatment of amounts paid Institute employees
(1) For purposes of sections 911 and 913 [2] of title 26, amounts paid by the Institute to its employees shall not be treated as earned income. Amounts received by employees of the Institute shall not be included in gross income, and shall be exempt from taxation, to the extent that they are equivalent to amounts received by civilian officers and employees of the Government of the United States as allowances and benefits which are exempt from taxation under section 912 of title 26.

A Navy veteran from Maine is in Washington to help introduce legislation aimed at helping victims of military sexual trauma. As a teenage servicewoman stationed overseas 25 years ago, Ruth Moore was raped twice by her immediate superior. She received no help following her ordeal - in fact quite the opposite. And it was more then 20 years before the Navy admitted any wrongdoing and Moore was adequately compensated. Tomorrow she'll join Maine Democratic Rep. Chellie Pingree and Sen. Jon Tester from Montana - also a Democrat - to announce The Ruth Moore Act, to help survivors of military sexual trauma get the benefits they're entitled to. Maine Things Considered host Tom Porter spoke with Ruth Moore from Washington, D.C.

I know that the FUJI X10 white-orb issue has been done to death, so apologies in advance: please bear with me. Today I sent my camera to Fuji for the second time - the first repair in September saw a lens replacement, which did nothing to solve the matter. A chap at Fuji's repair centre said that the lens, not sensor, was replaced.
I asked why the sensor hadn't been replaced, but he said it must have been a lens-based issue. Anyway, after receiving the camera back, I was so cheesed off with Fuji's poor attitude that I decided to keep the camera, as the orbs show mainly at night, and most photos I take aren't at night. I've changed my mind, as after using an old, basic compact (Fuji F440) and a Kodak P880 bridge camera, these don't give white orbs.
Has any other X10 owner had a lens replacement? Outcome? Oh, after the lens replacement, the camera sometimes displays a 'FOCUS ERROR' message and it won't fire.

MARTINEZ, Ga. (WRDW-TV) -- A well-known longtime business on Washington Road closed its doors today.
A handwritten note taped to the door left little information for customers of Appliance Land. The business has been in the area for more than 30 years.
An employee told News 12: "It appears we are going out of business, but we are not sure."
He says something came up and they are trying to work through it. In the meantime, he says the store will stay closed but they will make deliveries next week.
Customers with orders are urged to call (706) 737-0309.
The longtime owner of Appliance Land recently passed away.

|"Are you a wizard or not?"
The title of this article is conjectural. Although it is based on canonical information, the actual name is conjecture and may be supplanted at any time by additional information released from canonical sources. If this occurs, please move this page to the appropriate title.
The curse-dependent locking spell (incantation unknown) is a spell of the Dark Arts that ties the integrity of a lock to a floating eyes curse somewhere else in place.[1]
Once cast, one or more floating eyes will then glide before the door to be protected, moving through the air before it in a circle, with the number of eyes present reflecting the number of floating eye curses attached to the spell. Once all the curses defending the lock have been lifted this spell will also lift, unlocking the door it guarded.[1]
Behind the scenes
- It is possible that this spell could also work in conjunction with other magic, as opposed to only the floating eyes curse.
- This spell may be one of the Alohomora-proof door-sealing spells that Harry Potter speculated on in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. It may even have been used in that same book by Dolores Umbridge on her office door, albeit in conjunction with some invisible magic instead of the floating eyes curse, so that no display would appear before the door, as is the case with this spell when it is used with the floating eyes curse. If so, then this spell could be broken by Sirius Black's knife.

When I visited the boy I sponsor in India, Sarath, he didn't talk so much. We instead communicated with the toss of a Frisbee. But at the end of the visit as he walked me back to the bus, this little boy who had said little else, said over and over, "Please pray for me. Please pray for me. Please pray for me."
Wouldn't it be nice if I could tell you that faithfully every morning now I have kneeled to lift up Sarath and his two teenage sisters and unemployed mother? Too many mornings (and nights for that matter), I'm rushing and distracted and have forgotten the one plea Sarath made of me. Not "send more money." Not "send more gifts." Pray for me.
"Pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints." – Ephesians 6:18, emphasis added (NIV).
How seriously do we take prayer? How important do we consider prayer? I know I certainly don't take it seriously enough. It's the Sunday school answer to the issues we hear of plaguing the children we minister to.
How quickly and easily does the phrase, "I'll pray for that" run off our tongues? But do we see prayer for what it is — crying out to the omnipotent God for His incomparable power to work in the lives of these children?
For we don't just throw money at a problem. Our weapon against poverty isn't cash. Our weapons "have divine power to demolish strongholds" (2 Corinthians 10:4, NIV).
As Eric Alexander says, "The great business of the church is prayer. And the greatest need of a needy world is a praying church."
"In all our thinking about Christian service, prayer needs to become fundamental instead of supplemental … Prayer is the work; it is the essence of the task to which we are called, and apart from it, all other work, and I mean Christian work, is a sheer waste of time and energy divorced from the basic work of prayer. Everything else is insignificant." – Eric Alexander
Oh my soul, when will I take prayer as seriously as I ought?
My husband and I just wrote a small group study that is all about learning about the issues in this world and responding to them in prayer. But I still fall so short in this ministry of prayer to the children we sponsor.
So tell me — what do you do to be alert and stay alert as Ephesians 6 says?
How do you keep on praying for all the saints?
What stories do you have of the power of God through prayer in your sponsored children's lives, or your own life?

Arch-rivals Simba and Yanga are vying for three points each as they play their Mainland Premier League matches at different venues today. Simba host Ruvu Shooting at the National Stadium in Dar es Salaam.
In a game expected to be exciting, considering that it will be the first league game for the Msimbazi Street side since eliminating ES Setif of Algeria in the African Confederation Cup.
Simba will use the match to prove to their fans that they are a force to reckon with, bearing in mind that they are the only team in the country that have remained in CAF competitions.
However, the visitors will not be ready to let Simba dominate the game, considering that the armed forces side are well known for playing tactically and full of strength.
Ruvu Shooting officials recently said that they will not be ready to allow three crucial points to remain in Dar es Salaam and promised to outdo Simba.
Simba spokesman Ezekiel Kamwaga said recently that his side is free from injuries, which was taken to suggest that the coach will field a full-trength side as in the away CAF tie line-up.
Defending champions Yanga play Toto Africa at the CCM Kirumba in a match many think will be easy for them. The Lake Zone side has been losing at the hands of Yanga more or less consistently in the premier league history, partly because of considering themselves as a regional wing of the Jangwani Street Club.
But today's game is likely to be different. That not withstanding, Yanga will be targeting to maintain their unbeaten record at the hands of Toto Africa while the Lake Zone boys seek to win in order to move away from the relegation zone.
Elsewhere, Villa Squad will host Coastal Union at Chamazi ground in Dar es Salaam.
Simba lead the 14-team league with 50 points while third-placed Yanga have 43. Ruvu Shooting and Toto African have 27 and 20 points, respectively.

The Sims 3 - Generations (PC) - 3 reviews

PC Games
As the fourth installment in The Sims 3 game series, The Sims 3: Generations on the PC is an expansion pack that enhances game play in the way that fans will appreciate.
The Sims 3 games are known for opening up the world in new and unique ways that players do not expect. The features that each expansion pack brings to the game allow players to further immerse themselves in the world of The Sims. The Sims 3: Generations is no different. Generations adds goals, interactions and items that enhance the family and household dynamics of the game. While there are not any major changes to game play, here are some of the things that have been added that give The Sims 3 : Generations players a different experience.
Better Parties
While wedding and house parties have been available since the very first The Sims game, in Generations your Sims are able to throw themed parties that give them more personality. Sims are now able to throw and attend bachelor and bachelorette parties that come with party dancers and perhaps some adult entertainment. Teenage Sims can also throw parties at their house. They are also now able to attend school dances.
New Family-Centered Items
Every new expansion pack in The Sims 3 game adds some new items to play around with. The Sims 3: Generations is no different. Some of the items are more centered to younger Sims but most people can have fun on them. Some items include:-
Playground equipment
Tree houses
Bunk beds
There is also a video camera feature that allows your Sim to record any event while it is happening. They then have the option of replaying the video on any television available.
New Interactions and Personalities
Some of the new interactions available depend on family relationships. For example, mischievous children can receive harsher punishments (such as time-outs or being grounded) for their bad behavior.
There is a new rebellious character trait that gives positive points for pulling pranks successfully. Being able to pull pranks on other Sims is another thing that has been added. Pranks such as doorbell ditch, whoopee cushions and throwing eggs at houses can be just as much fun for the players as it is for the Sim.
As in real life, your philandering Sim can earn a not-so-flattering reputation for being a player. That means that Sims who like to whoo-hoo with many different people become known for their promiscuous reputation. This can prevent them from hooking up with other Sims who may not find their reputation very appealing.
These are some of the things that make The Sims :3 Generations a nice addition to your collection. However, if you are looking to add a whole new experience to your Sims experience, this game may not be what you are looking for. While it does add new features, the features enhance the things that are already there. Unfortunately, not many new experiences are brought to the table.

Fans all over the world of this highly rated life-simulation video game will surely be in their toes with this latest expansion pack for The Sims 3. The Generations add-on pack has been the widely awaited pack for the franchise since the success of the previous add-ons. However, The Sims 3: Generations has fallen short of being what was expected from the developers after a fairly long break from the last add-on which was fairly a big success. Normally, Electronic Arts are coming up with their expansion packs for the franchise in two categories; one is the Stuff where they would simply integrate some new stuff into the game such as accessories, furniture, toys, gadgets, etc. These types of expansion such as Pets do not necessarily change the overall gameplay as much as it introduces new stuff for decoration and design purposes only. On the other hand, the other type of expansion is what is known to be the Core Game Changer, expansion packs such as; World Adventures and Ambitions sets to change the core gameplay and experience of Sims 3.
The issue with Generations is that it seems to be not with one category at all. It smacked in the middle of those two as it poses some new stuff, with slight configuration to the core gameplay that is mostly not that noticeable. These facts have made this new expansion somewhat confusing to the fans in how it would fair in their books. Sims 3 Generations do add is some nifty cool stuff to the gameplay with new equipments, a bunch of new stuff and tendencies from all age ranges, a single new creature The Imaginary Friend and a new career. When you come to think about it, the changes are vast, with numerous gameplay improvements and lots of new tendencies. As you may have guessed from the title, The Sims 3 Generations mainly focuses in enhancing and broadening each sims' various stages in their lives. From toddlers, adolescence, teens, young adults, adults to oldies; Generations packs some nifty stuff that deepens how each sim acts and lives their lives that coincides in the stages of their lives. Toddlers learn to dress up and play princess, dinosaurs, or astronauts and have the ability to come up with the new creature The Imaginary Friend. Generations have also ramped it up for the teens, with various social events and parties teen sims can attend to, even the enraged teen hormones are realistically being integrated into the game. Adults can experience mid-life crisis and oldies; well they just wave around their canes to scare people away.
The new additions are something fans could really have fun exploring. The new video camera will give you the ability to record certain moments in your simsÂ' life and play it on the TV set. The new career in daycare can certainly be something worth trying out. However, when you talk about it in overall, there is a lot of confusion as to where this expansion pack stands and raises the question if it is ever worth the money.

Sims 3 Generations has arrived for a variety of game-playing consoles. Each has its own special benefits and drawbacks, but the Sims game hasnÂ't changed it style or its substance since its inception several years ago. The game play has advanced a bit and the graphics have certainly become more impressive, but the main concept of the game stays the same and Sims 3 brings lot to the table that still is incredibly fun to play with. Perfect for all ages and people with imagination.
If you arenÂ't familiar with the World of Sims you will find that it is very simple. ItÂ's a game that lets you create an environment, not much unlike the one we already live in, and gives your simulated character (hence, Sim) the ability to grow as a person. Just like real people however, Sims have daily needs. They need to eat, need to use the bathroom, need to have a job, need to pay bills and need to have friends and relationships. Sounds kind of mundane, but the fun is in the details. You can manage their development step-by-step, or choose to have them move swiftly on their own. ThereÂ's not a lot of fun in that, however. The real fun it taking it step by step, and seeing what they like and dislike. Remember, you are essentially in charge of their every move. Experiment. See what they can handle and like, and try to cater the actions to garner the reaction you want.
There is a vast amount of re-playability with Sims 3 and the Generations expansion certainly adds more. Whenever you are bored with living the life in a normal way, you can mix things up for your created universe. The basic idea of the game is to create a Sim and design its life like that of a real one. You can give it a house, a job, relationships and a family. Have them do ordinary things with ordinary results. If you have basically tapped your interest in that game play, you can get creative, and sometimes evil.
One of the ways you can mix things up is to try and mess around at your Sims job. Maybe not go to work a few days in a row. See what happens. Perhaps your Sim is getting a bit randy and their significant other isnÂ't around, you can play digital adultery with the neighbor. Or, you can create a room without any doors or bathrooms and feed your Sim and watch them squirm. Sounds terrible, but itÂ's something can be cone on Sims 3 if you have an evil way of entertaining yourself.
Overall Sims Generations is a welcome addition to the Sims series and has further helped the series evolve into a pretty impressive game set with year upon year improvements and additions. The game play is still really fun, as is the variety of things you can make your Sim do. The computer I played it on is a few years old, but the graphics and overall playing was smooth and faced no hiccups. If you are looking for a fun game to keep your busy for hours, or even weeks at a time, Sims 3 Generations will definitely impress and add to the entertainment that the Sims offer.
