Better Than I Thought it Would Be,

I played the first version of the Sims and liked it, but there were little things that always bothered me about it, like constantly having to make the sims go to the bathroom, and how it took them forever to walk around each other, how difficult it was to get them to talk to each other and date, etc., so I put off buying The Sims 2 until I got a new computer recently.
Well, I have to say I am really loving this game and have fallen in love with it all over again. I actually bought this title and all the other expansion packs at once (through Seasons) and installed them altogether. The experience is really great! The graphics are much better, I love the way you can manipulate the camera angles, and the sims are now a little smarter about what they do autonomously, so if I have a large family to play, I can concentrate on one sim for a while and not have to worry about what the others are doing.
The downtown area in the Nightlife section is really cool, and it takes less time to order and receive food now. I like the new date scoring system, and the new aspirations give a little sense of urgency to the game, which I enjoy. You now have specific goals to work toward with each sim, and there’s incentive to reach the goals because you know your sim will eventually die. Oh, and did I mention that there’s vampires now?
Love, love, love what they’ve done to this game!

|THIS IS A GREAT GAME!,

I had the sims and it was pretty fun. But it got old quickly and soon there were no more things to do with it. There were several things that I didn’t like: no marriage, no aging, bad zoomimg, bad camera navigation, and honestly no real reason to stay with your sims and help them through life. It was all too simple, and not like real life at all.
Then along comes the sims 2! Man, this is SO MUCH BETTER! And especially the deluxe edition, that comes with the nightlife expansion, so that you can go downtown and have a rockin’ night out! Nightlife comes with tons of new clothes, and you can but cars to go downtown! Besides, with this expansion you can go on dates that have rating, from Horrible to Dream Date!
In the sims 2, sims have life aspirations (Pleasure, Family, Romance, Fortune, Knowledge, Popularity) and wants and fears. Wants and fears vary depending on the life aspiration. If you fulfill wants, sims will get more aspiration points and be happier. If their fears are realized, then they loose aspiration points and get sad. There’s long-term and short-term relationships, and teenagers can go steady. There’s a difference between crush and love. Adults and elders can marry. There’s six ages that sims go through: baby, toddler, child, teenager, adult, and elder.
I can go on and on. But it’s better for you to get this game and experience the rest for yourself!

The Sims 2 is a brench mark for the best interactive game you could get. Other then being online. It a trend of life and does teach some value for teens how to take care of themselves. It very complex to learn and not easy to get to know. I suggested getting the guide book for it, once you get to know it a little. I had problems installing “Fun Stuff” packs and other download. But my daughter had no problems playing the base and Sims 2 Pets on the PC. If you want to get a sample before playing the PC version. Get a DS version of Sims 2 and Sims 2 Pets and New MySims coming out.
Bit of warning. better have a very large hard drive and above average video card. I have base game and four expansion packs and three “fun stuff” added n packs. Also the download could fill your hard drive up fast. Deluxe comes with a built in expansion “Night Life” so you have a pack to start with. Also patch your games and save the files folder regularly (located in your My Document Folder).
