sims = officially worst game ever + award for the most amount of add on packs, due to people becoming laughably obsessed.

I agree. How can you find a game like that fun? Point click click click no skill at all.

They show everything in the game ailevation.

they blur out all the titties.... but you can get a nude patch :cheecky:
 
I really don't see how anyone can not like this game. Thats one of the cool things about these Maxis games, you can either play it properly or just screw around, and its fun either way.

Exactly, and there's no time limit or anything, you decide wether or not you want to complete the objectives =)

It's all about fun hehe.
 
the best things about sims 2 are the asperations. Unlike the Sims, which had no real perpose other than to be richer and happier than you allready are, The asperations actually add some structure to how you play. It means that every day you are given goals- and whether you accomplisg them is up to you. It certainly drags you away from the tedious cycle of day in, day out routines though.
 
I haven't played any sims game in my life.

Should I play it or not ? Alot of people are getting this game.

I don't understand why people love to play kids game ?
 
My guy has an elixir of life addiction, it's really quite harrowing.

kids game?

I think its agreed on this thread its not a kids game. a kid wouldn't have a clue what to do and would get bored quickly with it. Yes you should get it, you'll change your mind then :)

Agreed, really is much better knowing what you should do than guesswork like the first time around. Much more interesting and playable.

Coming from someone that has CS in their sig :p
 
Got it :D Haven't played it much, moved a guy into the desert town (strangeville?) and so far he's made friends with the newspaper girl, gone to a hottub with two hotchicks and been fired from his medical career (he was moping around the house until I told him to go to bed, it was one of his aspirations from the start). Here's a screenie, I'm really quite impressed with how customisable the sims are :) Come to think of it everyone should try make one of themselves and post a screenie of their best effort. I'll do mine soon :D
 
Ladies and gentlemen...

Mr Lenny Zombuss!

He likes cleaning, cooking and socialising mostly. Also fond of reading.
 
Haha, random sim generator rules. Check out this guy, afraid of his own reflection >.<

try flirting > suggestion

Well that worked pretty well, after becoming best friends, more options appeared =)

Guess what happened?

Yay the maid moved in. How do you get them to Woo-Hoo? >_<

Flirt, hit on her, cuddle, try different things the options allow you to until you see the pink hearts (crush) fly over both your heads. It may not happen at the same time for both, so keep trying. =)

I haven't "woohooed" at the pink heart stage so you might have to keep going at it 'till you get the red hearts (love), then you can "relax" in bed and ask the maid to join, then you get more options in bed, one is woohoo!

Oh get the special woohoo jacuzzi, it's great :LOL:

And Gorgon, when you can get two hot chicks to make out in a jacuzzi you can be sure it's not a kid's game hehe ;)

holly smokes, that first guy looks like me. :O
 
its an adult game, just dummed down a bit for kids. Like "having sex" is "woo-hoo!" and "having sex without a condom" is "try for a baby".

and im gonna try and make the FIREMAN move in lol :D i befrended him by giving him £100 tip after he saved my oven ;)

It's not so much dumbed down though, its just "having sex" and "having sex without a condom" simply wouldn't have fit in the style of the game.
 
Maxis did a really good job creating the mood in the first game - quirky, comical, but somehow genuine. You were made to care about the sims (even though you may not have chosen to :p). Another thing is it was light-hearted and fun while still pushing back the politically correct barrier. I think they've done an even better job at doing this with the sequel. Kudos :)

Hehe, I love the way the sims rock the casbah to that funky music :D

I have a supernice 80s miami styled house with white pastel and neon lights and palms etc, I got 650.000 after getting Mortimer to marry the room mate that moved in when my George Dillon married Dina Caliente :D

Big family now, in other words.
 
Haha, I got that one girl that moved in with me pregant after a few tries. :O He has to pass on his genes before he's an old man! Now she goes to the toilet to throw up every once in a while, and it shows her belly getting larger and larger. :LOL:
 
Oh I thought my lady was just getting fat when that happen so I killed her :/.
 
Where are your screenshots located in the game folders by the way? I can't seem to find them.

It's in: C:\Documents and Settings\Username\My Documents\EA Games\The Sims 2\Storytelling ;)

But you have to go through all of them to find yours, the story-telling pictures are also stored there.
 
damnit! I dont know what the problem is! I put the sims 2 into my drive, and it doesnt even spin, it just goes "uh..uh..uh" over and over, and the damn thing wont open in "my computer" I took it back and exchanged it, and I have the same problem! The disc wont even read with my computer. The bonus disk in there works on my computer, but not the bloddy installation disk! Can anyone give me any help?
