Sims 3 landing in February

EA just dropped word that my real social life will be ending in February due to the fact that I will be spending all waking hours mating with other Sims in the newest edition to one of the greatest games that they have ever put out.
This time around it looks as though I will need to upgrade my PC by at least $2300 just to play at the lowest quality since they seem to not simply tie you down to your own lot anymore.
Man, I can't wait to have my girlfriend dump me for this..
