 Sims 2 November 17, 2008
I like it more than the original Sims game. It's fun to play and there are a lot more items and design options when you're making and decorating houses. There are also a lot more options when you make a Sim -- there's a lot of control over facial features, in particular.
 Best Game Ever November 16, 2008
The title says it all! Great game! I would say from 13 to late 20's play this game! Even older! Some people play for the drama, some play it like how they would want their own lives to be played, some play it to build homes, dream homes, or just love architecture, some play it to dress up their characters. SO MUCH IMAGINATION SO MUCH FLEXIBILITY SO MUCH SIMS!
Great game! October 24, 2008
I have not yet tried this game. I am giving it as a gift.
I am sure that the recipient will be happy with the game. She enjoys all of the Sims games.
 Not as much fun as I thought it would be October 19, 2008

After reading so many great reviews I was looking forwarded to playing this game. When I got it home it took nearly 30 minutes to load. Since my computer is brand new with lots of speed and memory this did not bode well. Once installed I found that, even with the tutorial and manual, the instructions were lacking.
The manual told me that I could order groceries delivered to my sim's house simply by calling. This option was not available to the sim I created. It also said that I could go to the store and by food. After spending most of my sim's money on food I found that I couldn't take it home. So all I could do was order pizza.
I like that you have so much control over the sim's actions. I do not like that I have to tell it to do everything. At one point my sim told me it was tired and wanted to go to bed. At least that is my assumption from the picture of a bed that appeared in the thought balloon. So I told it to go to sleep. It laid down, got back up and again yelled at me that it was tired. After the fifth time it finally went to sleep. Then missed its ride to work and got fired. And There is the tilt and pan. I haven't gotten that dizzy since the tea cups at Disneyland.
If you are a control freak or just like games that require you to constantly be making decisions for your character this is the game for you. For me it just is way too much work. I didn't have as much trouble raising my son as I did controlling these sims.
I gave it 2 stars for fun because I enjoyed the experience of figuring out the controls.
I gave it 2 stars overall because it is well done but like I said way too much work.
Sims 2 is the best! October 9, 2008
