8 Video Games That Mocked Themselves

7. The Sims 3: University Life Expansion

Uncharted 4

No matter what you think of the Sims series as a whole and the absolutely sociopathic generation that it raised thanks to its “swimming pool murder simulator” experience, there’s no denying the sheer heft this series carries.

It’s an utter monster when it comes to sales and because people apparently cannot get enough of the digital good stuff, slews of DLC’s and expansions have dropped for the mainline titles across the years.

In fact, there are so many of these expansions that it must have become something of a chore to think up new furniture designs for them, something which is clearly highlighted in the University Life Expansion for The Sims 3.

Here if you chose to follow the Video Game Developer Career you’ll sometimes get a line of dialogue that references the arduous process of designing similar items over and over.

The line states, “You can only draw so many downloadable coffee tables before snapping", and when you consider the actual amount of coffee tables for purchase in this series, you have to feel for this poor designer.
