It's actually Mark Hughes' test and according to him The Sims 3 can be played for 6 hours without crash. It seems above configuration is highest stable for now. If anyone can play on higher settings please share that here.

Installing The Sims 3 on Linux Mint 13 64-bits did install Wine 1.3.4 for the 32-bits version.
Because of this, the shortcut does not work:

~/Bureau $ /usr/share/playonlinux/playonlinux --run "The Sims 3"
[POL_System_SetArch] Message: POL_ARCH set to amd64
[POL_Wine_SetVersionEnv] Message: Setting wine version path: 1.3.4, amd64
[POL_Wine_SetVersionEnv] Message: Wine 1.3.4 not installed

Manually installing Wine 1.3.4 for amd64 then gives the following error message:

[POL_System_SetArch] Message: POL_ARCH set to amd64
[POL_Wine_SetVersionEnv] Message: Setting wine version path: 1.3.4, amd64
[POL_Wine_SetVersionEnv] Message: "/home/spontex/.PlayOnLinux//wine/linux-amd64/1.3.4" exists
[POL_Wine] Message: Running wine-1.3.4
wine: cannot find ''
[POL_Wine] Message: Wine return: 87

I had to manually edit the "~/.PlayOnLinux/shortcuts/The Sims 3" script to specify the location where I have installed the game.

Then the game launches but gives me an error message "The disc cannot be found".
Exiting the game quits my Linux session. With Wine 1.3.4 I cannot log in again. With Wine "system" I can log in again.
