In the base game, ''SSX 3'' iscomes ready to play andwithout any additional purchases. Other games (such as ''[[The Sims Bustin' Out]]'' and ''SimCity 4 Rush Hour'') can be bought from video game [[display rack|racks]] on [[community lot]]s. These three titles can be seen if the player zooms in on a rack. ''[[FreeTime]]'' adds ''[[MySims]]'',four ''FIFAnew 08'',additional ''Commandvideo and Conquer: Tiberium Wars'', and ''Spore''games to video game racks., Itas alsowell addsas a''[[The freestandingSims video3]]'' gameif rackthe whichplayer displaysopens those[[Rod games.Humble]]'s but is otherwise identical to the base-game freestanding rackgift. All games, including those just bought, are available on any [[Computer#The Sims 2|computer]] or game console in the household. When a Sim visits a [[community lot]] that has a computer or video game console, all games which are available on the Sim's home lot will be available.

SSX 3 may become unavailable after another game is purchased. While it cannot be purchased from a rack, buying a video game console or computer should make it available again. It is not necessary to keep a video game console or computer boughtin possession for this purpose.

[[Personality#Qualities|Sloppy]] Sims may fail to put the controller away when they are finished playing. A Sim can be told to put the controllers away by clicking on the game console and selecting "Put Away Controllers". Players should note that the controllers may be seen as disposable. When this happens, the controllers will become clickable, and "Dispose" will appear when clicking on a controller. This does not affect Sims' ability to use the game console, but the only way to return the controllers to not being seen as disposable is to purchase a new console. If the controllers are seen as disposable, Sims, particularly Neat Sims, may autonomously attempt to Dispose of a controller. If a Sim starts to dispose of a controller, the player can save the controller by canceling the Dispose action before the Sim starts to put the controller in a trash can or trash compactor.

On a computer or video game console, as with [[computers]] Sims can be seen playing ''Burnout Paradise'', ''Skate'', "FIFA" (where Arsenal are a team on screen) and ''Madden NFL''. If ''[[The Sims 3: Ambitions]]'' is installed, Sims can also be seen playing "Sim Animals: Africa."
