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!
The
Sims2 Deluxe
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).
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!
