Can The Sims 2 live up to the promise/hype that has kept fans waiting for years? Well, I've played The Sims 2 for the past 10 days and here is my review..

yup very decent game and expect even more addons than the last one. The aging is pretty cool but I find it's a little fast and what seems to be an issue for a lot of people is that the characters that come with the game, your neighbours, don't age. Most people in community usually use the cheat code to turn off aging. There is a lot of money here for EA in terms of addon cuz i can think of lots. Strippers, Dial-a-Bottle, Hospital to name a few.

I've just played the Roller Coaster 3 demo xxxx, and it's a WHOLE new world compaired to the last time i played anything similar -namely Theme Park! Seriously ADDICTIVE. The ride cameras are AMAZING damn near realistic in the coasters!! I reckon folks would throw up on their monitors if they suffered from motion sickness playing it Laughing

Been seriously thinking of The Sims2 -must be my old age! Is it the 3D characters that just makes the diff or is it game play? Do you own it xxxx?

Ya I seen that RCT 3 screenshots and stuff and it looks cool too. Usually it's my wife that plays these kinds of games and she said that RC3 looked cool but she didn't enjoy the last ones so forget it, I'll tell her you say otherwise. Like have it on the weekend since it does sound better than I thought too.

Sims 1 I didn't play, didn't like it or I just couldn't get into it. Sims 2 on the other hand, I have AA cranked and all settings cranked, it video lags here and there but ya the game is great fun and I can see they are gonna have expansion hell for this one. Too much good to say, graphics rock and it's just damn addictive. Ya I never thought I'd play Sims 2, but here I am nearly a week later playing Sims 2 more than Counter-Strike Source or anything else. Overall, game play is more fun and you can do more things. Don't get deluxe as it is a waste of money. just get the ordinary release. DVD 2 simply contains more media in terms of E3 show and interviews and stuff you can live without. Currently I am building my own neighbourhood in Sim2 and added a Fire Pit for hamburgers etc and just ate at it last night. Even more cool you can invite fellow Sims to meet you at a location.. next thing I want to do is a Billiard/Strip Club. Think I have to wait for an addon since you can't make your own objects yet.. Only gay part of Sims 2 right now.

From your photos HX, it looks like all you did was pick up girls, take hot baths and make babies. Very Happy
