The Sims

The Sims has to be the most addicting game I've ever played in my life! I'm actually ashamed of how much time and money I've spent on it. Nevertheless, it's well worth it. I even have all the expansion packs for it (except the new one that just came out). Despite the fact that it might be a shameful addiction, I still have a lot of fun on it.

Although it's not my favorite game, the SIMS lives up to my expectations. You can control up to a family of 8 people, design them,their house and tell them what to do.You can get married, have children, get roommates...It's like the real world, and you can do everything you had always wanted too do(you get jobs as well) It's addicting at first(for about 8 hours or so), but then it gets a bit predictable and a bit boring. So I advise anyone that gets it don't blow the 8 hours real quick like I did. Live it out and have fun. I'm sure I'll be getting the 2 new{er} expansion packs, along with anything else they make for it. 3 out of 5 stars(p.s., if you want a cheat for the game, press and hold CTRL,SHIFT,AND C. THEN TYPE ROSEBUD IN THE CHEAT CONSOLE AND PRESS ENTER, FOR A THOUSAND DOLLARS(SIM MONEY). THEN ACCESS THE CHEAT CONSOLE AGAIN AND TYPE!; LIKE THAT UP TO 60 TIMES, EACH TIME WORTH A THOUSAND BUCKS!!)

When I first saw The Sims I had no idea what to expect. Actually, it sounded weird. Controlling little people's lives? What the - ?

But shortly after I had purchased the game and played it for myself, I thought about it very differently. The Sims is arguably the best video game made for computer that I have ever played! You can never finish a game. You just keep playing until you evict the family or kill all the sims in it (or stop playing of course).

I would find it amusing to have people ask me "Are you winning?" when I'm playing the sims. I would simply turn around and say "This is a game which cannot be won. You can't even finish it!"

The Sims is a fantastic, impeccable, incredible, good, great, fabulous, brilliant and highly enjoyable game. 10 out of 10!

I bought the SIMS the very first day it came out, about two years ago. I have been playing ever since. I was a big fan of Sim City and actually I can remember in 1997 when I was in the 7th grade I had an idea for a video game much like that of Sim City, but its shown as a families perspective. When I found out the game was being made, I immediately knew I wanted to buy it. Its such a fun game and the different versions are really good as well. I have all of them except for the newest version, called "unleashed". I am also hoping to buy the first console edition for the PS2. All in all, its a lot of fun, its even better if you download different skins from various internet sites and create your own world. I mean what other video game can you have "The Grinch", "Edward Sissorhands" and "Drew Carey" as roomates?

The Sims is a game where you have to control little computerized people, you can build them a house, get them jobs to pay the bills and give them a social life (they can even get married). From the moment i got this game i was hooked. The good thing about the sims is that it is funny and unpredictable.
