Thread: The Sims 2

  1. #1

    Default The Sims 2

    Ok, I understand that many of you will probably hate the sims. After all it raises such questions as "how many guns are actualy available" and "where exactly do the fleash eating, ragdoll zombies fit in" but those who have persevered have normaly enjoyed them selves. Anyhoo, what do you think of the sequal coming out in a week or two?

    Thoughts? Comments?

    I usually have doubts about any game with so much hype, but I can't say that I'm put off by anything that the Sims 2 has to offer. It's not a lazy sequel, but a true evolution of the series.

    Barring any major gameplay faults, it'll be an absolute classic.

    This one seems to have a greater range of features initially installed. We've already seen shots of a downtown area, and the range of items is already huge.

    Plus, did anybody really like Makin' Magic?

    I used to play this and was heavily addicted to it's online ... game. Then I realised I had a real life, and hurried back to that.

    I really want it, but as that game's system requirement's are insane and my computer is old, I can't get it. :/ I had The Sims and Expansion packs Hot Date, House Party, and Vacation. Hot Date and House Party were good, but Vacation was stupid.

    I've had the game for about a week now, and for some reason it doesn't quite have the same appeal as the original.

    It's rather difficult to explain, as on paper everything seems perfect. In reality, however, I found myself becoming quite bored after extensive play. The worst part is that there's no logical reason for it, the game just doesn't seem as fun as its predecessor.

    Has anyone else found this to be true?

    I hated the original Sims, but I love Sims 2. The customizability in the facial features and other body details is what appeals me. Full 3D is also ncie. The whole new "Aspiration Points" system that they implemented make the game seems a whole lot more deep than just having your Sim make it by day to day.

    I've had the game for a bit, now, and while it may not have as many items or as many possibilities as the original included with all the expansions, all the user-made items and such will hopefully close that barrier; although I don't mind that much.
