Spore vs. Sims 3

Well i've decided that the new game i am going to get has come down to these two. I know both are widely popular as well as qualtiy games that would provide me with lots of replay and such. However which one is better? To be honest i have yet to play thbe sims games and a lack of demo aavailabe makes me kind of nervous. So if u would kindly give me ur thoughts on the games and which one is better

Sims 3. Its a really nice game compared to spore which i uninstalled the day i got it and it is currently collecting dust UNDER my desk.

I think The Sims 3 is better.

I don't like either game but probably Sims 3 is a bit better.

spore sucked and sims 3 sucks. if they come up with an update to enhance grpahics for sims 2 then nobody will buy sims 3.

I suggest Sims 3
