 Leaps and Bounds Above TS1 October 14, 2008
A sophisticated and complex sequel to The Sims, The Sims 2 is pretty to boot. I think that my favorite aspect of this game is the new levels of complexity in the sims. They have hopes and dreams as well as fears. Another noteworthy feature is the life cycle -- sims age, now. No more perpetual children or adults who live forever.
If you enjoyed The Sims, you'll definitely love The Sims 2. If you've never played The Sims before, now is the time to start.
A review by my daughter August 26, 2008
My name is Frances Applegate and I'm 9. I just ordered The Sims 2 and I'm very excited to play it. I have played it at friends houses, and enjoyed it very much.
1. First off there's the plant people. (you can recognize them by their green skin) They lurk around some neighborhoods. They're very nice, but poeple are scared of them and misunderstand them.
2. And then there's the werewolves. If you mess with a dog with yellow eyes that walks outside your house at night sometimes, and you become friends, he'll bite you, and you'll become a werewolf.
3. There's also aliens that evade occasionally. Some sims fall in love with them and have alien-human babies.
I won't give anymore away but here's a few cheats for money.
C+ctrl+shift, motherlode and katching.
Enjoy playing sims!

Ah, the Sims. Wonderful little creatures that obey our every commands, making us feel like God, only without some smart-a$$ coming along and nailing things to cathedral doors.
You're doubtless quite familiar with the Sims as a premise. Basically you create and control people. You run every aspect of their lives. You make them do their bidding, and if that means building a house full of nothing but wooden furniture and fireplaces, then by gum, you can do that!
"Sims 2" is a massive improvement over the original game. It took everything that was good about the original and basically set it to eleven, while toning down a lot that wasn't so great (you don't have to micromanage your Sims nearly as much). With this game you get a whole new set of bells and whistles, including a 3D enviroment, Sims that actually age and will eventually die of old age (provided you aren't the sort who tells them to go swimming and then deletes the ladder so they can't leave the pool. Mwa-ha-ha-ha!), new jobs, new aspirations, new gizmos, new building options, etc, etc!
It can be kind of overwhelming at first, but if you start out small the game will guide you, and you'll soon be running people's lives just like that one aunt you have who thinks she knows exactly how everyone should do things and loves to tell you, at length, about how you're messing up your life!
Addictive Game July 24, 2008
From the moment I installed this game I was hooked. Who doesn't want to control other people's lives? To be honest since this is just the base game after you get the feel of the game and how to play it will get boring. So before you buy it make sure you can afford and your computer can handle a few expansion packs and maybe even some of the stuff packs that are offered. However, it is worth the investment.
LOVE THIS GAME! June 17, 2008
I absouletely love the sims 2! Even though it is much better with the expansion packs it is so much fun to play...I'm really into life simulating and stuff like I always just played with my dolls and stuff when I was younger so this is extremely awesome! There are some downfalls but the good things over weigh them!
