The Sims 2

After playing Sims 1 for 4 yrs, I had a fun time with game and including the expansion patch like: Livin large, House party, Hot Date, Vacation, Unleashed, Superstar, and Magical Magic. But now that Sims 2 came out in Sept 14, I've been playing this more than Sims 1 and I'm lovin it.

This game has been improve from environment, character, and layout. In this game you can do anything, just like we do in real life. Just to name a few: They have six different ways of kissing, They have four different ways of hugging, they have four different ways of talking and now you can fight in the game. Also you can make a baby now, so you don't have to adopt one, but the opinion is still open.

The people from Maxis, put in a system that makes your sims show feeling, emotions, and joyful traits. Let's just say that Maxis made this game more life like than the previous Sim game.

There's a lot more in this game, but I'm running out of time. The rating I give this game is a 10.

After wasting hours fantasising on the first Sims, I get to waste hours fantasising on the next one. Oh but it was so fun! There are so many new additions and I loved playing around with all of this. I wonder where my characters are at now?

they life, they die and you pick whats in between. the same idea as Sims 1 but better this time you make sims and they do 1000s of things. after playing with one sim you get so attached to them that you some times wish they were even alive even though the animation and all the extras in the game make it seem like the sims are real. the game is good to play but the big bad side is that you need improvements in your computer to play plus the game does eat away at your memory and hardrive taking up space each time you play. the game is good but their is a lot of bugs! "Jump bug" and "Save bug" are the most common bugs in the game but maxis is working on a patch. right now i rate the game 9/10

A very addictive game indeed! The Sims 2 is most definitely the best game of the past ten years. This version has much better graphics than the original Sims game and there are so many more things that the Sims can do in "The Sims 2" than ever before.

The gameplay is easy enough for kids to play (but beware, this game is rated TEEN). In playing this game, you simply control the lives of your Sims to do whatever tasks you see fit. The best new feature in The Sims 2 is the genetic outcomes of TRY-FOR-BABY. The Sims 2 has become even more surreal and more fascinating.

And with the seven different expansion packs (University, Nightlife, Open for Business, Pets, Seasons, Bon Voyage, and Freetime) out there for the main game, you could literally play this game for days without quitting (but I don't recommend this). After some consideration, I gave this title a 10, a perfect score.

Truly, the Sims 2 is probably the best game to have ever been made. The possibilities for game play are infinite, and it never ends. It's not like the usual VG where once you complete all the levels, you're done, that's where the story ends, and there's no more to say...Here, every family has its own story, which you create. (Although the maxis made families have their own background...but you decide where to head.) Truth be told, it's got its nice share of glitches, which can get extremely annoying...but with patience and intelligence you can learn to work your way around it till the maxis people come out with a patch.

The graphics are incredible...some talented sim makers can make sims look so much like their real-life counterpart, you'd think it was an actual picture of them.

Downloading...that definitely adds a lot, for although the maxis people have worked their hardest to make the game play grand and enjoyable, they certainly lack it in the creativity department as far as fashion and personal appearance goes...so it's a good thing we have the option to download things...and believe me, I don't stop...hehe The expansion packs certainly add to it, and Maxis has a way of making each one a vital necessity (although I've never heard of a non-vital necessity...xD) Overall, I think this game is definitely worth your money :) ~Ange Doré~
