Sims 2: How to Cheat on your Real Life

Date of Review:  Oct 8, 2004
The Bottom Line: If you don't play Sims 2 you must be a cold-hearted Nazi who tells little children that Santa is dead and you ate the reindeer.
Review: Gameplay: 10
Graphics: 9
Sound: 10
Concept: 10
Replay Value: 10

How do you follow the best-selling game of all time? Easy: make a sequel that's the same, but better. That's exactly what the Maxis team did with Sims 2,...

Simply Marvelous To The MAXIST!

Date of Review:  Sep 18, 2004
The Bottom Line: This is a must have for Strategy and Simulation enthusiasts. Great game for the entire family.
Review: From time to time, we all here the phrase, "There's no need to reinvent the wheel!" or "If it isn't broke, don't fix it." Apparently Maxis, thinks outside the box, and beyond the norm and has decided to reinvent it's hit game "The Sims" with it's...

A Game That Makes You Feel Guilty About Not Doing Your Homework

Date of Review:  May 1, 2005
The Bottom Line: i see many expansion packs in your future.
Review: Today, I woke up. I took a shower after I neatly made my comfy ultra-modernly designed bed. (It's bright green!). I went to the fridge and fixed myself a nice omelet. My car pool came and I went to work. At the record store where I happily work, I...

Live and Let Live Then Die

Date of Review:  Aug 12, 2005
The Bottom Line: Complex, detailed, beautiful to look at.
Review: I was an absolute Sims Junkie. I deliberately stayed away from the Online version as I knew, deep down, it would kill all real social interaction and would replace my friends with little online avatars. I needed those expansion packs like a smoker...

They Like Us, They Really Like Us! And We Like Them Back: The Sims2

Date of Review:  Jul 1, 2005
The Bottom Line: The Sims 2 is larger than life.
Review: The Sims 2 from Electronic Arts as a game has done more than the whole world in terms of fighting prejudice and discrimination. This game made many real dreams come virtually true. And I don't mean becoming a mayor or a crazy scientist with a daily...

The Sims 2 PC game for Windows

Date of Review:  Jun 17, 2008
The Bottom Line: The Sims 2 PC game is great for the whole family, we have really had fun with it in our household.
Review: I got the Sims 2 PC game for Windows last year as a Christmas gift from my mother. We like games like this in our house so it was a great gift to have gotten. I was very exited to open it and get it going. It was fairly simple to install and run. I...

I'm addicted to Sims 2!

Date of Review:  Jun 29, 2005
The Bottom Line: A fun update of the old Sims games, more to see and do, still haven't experienced every little thing, very addicting
Review: I have been a Sim addict since the very first Sims games. I loved how you could take these people and teach them new things and then have them fall in love, take them out on dates, have a house party, go on vacation...

Messy , Messy , Piggy Sim !!!!

Date of Review:  Sep 1, 2006
The Bottom Line: Awesome game. Love my sims, like I love my real life family. Highly addicting, and entertaining. It's like playing God.
Review: My love for The Sims 1 was what brought me to buy the newest addition, The Sims 2. I already had my copy pre bought before it even hit the shelves. I knew if I did'nt get my copy early I'd most likely be waiting a month after it came out, to get it...

The Engrossing Day to Day Life of The Sims

Date of Review:  Jun 21, 2007
The Bottom Line: A not to be missed classic. If you even remotely liked the original game, the Sims 2 is sure to delight. Maxis should be proud of themselves.
Review: I have always been pretty impressed by games from Maxis. Going back to the heady days of my Commodore 64 and various AMIGAs, stunningly original games like Sim City and weird and wonderful titles including Sim Ant and Sim Farm fired my imagination...

The Bottom Line: Sims 2 is the best.
Review: The Sims 2 for Windows works with windows 98 through xp and is so much better then the first sims. I purchased it from Walmart for 49.99 a few months ago. I am addicted to the game.
