I realize there is a photo thread for this already, but...let's discuss it! I think this game is what got me hooked to the computer. I could play this game literally all day with no food or bathroom breaks. I love all these games to no end. And making my characters do mischevious things. I like the first generation better. Cool

I own:

- The Sims (first generation w/exspansion packs):
- Vacation
- Hot Date
- Makin' Magic
- Unleashed
- Living Large
- House Party
- Superstar

- The Sims 2

I don't have any exspansion packs for this one. ;_;

Other Maxis/Sims games, etc:

- Sim Coaster
- Sim City 2000/3000
- Sim Town
- Sim Park
- Sim Ant
- Sim Tunes
- Sim Tower
- Sims Creator

I will get more. tehe

Discuss! Express your nerdy computer gaming love! Naughty

I love the Original Sims (The Sims 1 and every EP), as well as the console versions of the Sims 2.

And, because I'm a Maxis Whore:

Simcity 2k, 3k, 4k with Rush hour
SimTower
SimEarth
SimIsle (Boring, I suppose. But cool.)

And, when it comes out: SPORE!!!!

Computers suck.

I mean, really. Can't they just make a computer that works???

I have the Sims 2.
I love it so much.

I have a town called, This Is A Town.
pretty pwning. (h)
and it only has 1 family.
the 45920 family.
The mom is living in a ~trailer~ house.
and the dad and son is living in the house.
but their lazy and don't clean up their dishes, so the house always has a green hue to it.

I'm thinking about getting an expaxantion pack.

Any ideas?

I wish I had the EPs for The Sims 2. Sad

I got it about a week after it was released, which was quite a while ago, and never got to play it because my computer was too old to support it. It was sad. Now that I have a new computer, I play it all the time. tehe

I used watch my sisters play it when it was only one game, the original Sims, and started collection them. I blew soooo much money on them. That and The Greatest Empires games. Cool I'm such a nerd.

Once I wanted to build a haunted house, so I moved a family in a killed them all, then did the same thing over and over again with other families to make a graveyard and stuff. There's always ghosts walking around.

I love The Sims 2, but I don't have any expansions pack so it can get pretty boring. :/

How do you make a town?

I have The Sims, all of the expansions, The Sims 2, and all of those expansions.
I started playing it when I was 9 or so. After I got the Business one I sort of lost interest, but now I'm back in the loop of playing it.
xDDD

making a town is very easy. All you have to do is instead of clicking on a town to play, go to the end of the list and there is a button to make a new town.
I can never make a new town...I always fuck it up. Lol.
But I kick ass with making families. They're normally all punked out since the University expansion has all that cool stuff.

Without BoolProp, I don't know how I'd play the Sims.
Yeah, my friend and I have all the expansion packs, and all the little town games between us.
We're waii cool.

I remember (reading about) the aquisition of Maxis by EA awhile back (1997). Everyone thought, "Damn. There goes another great software company."

Shockingly, they got better?
I mean, they were good before, but after EA, they really got to work (The Sims, The Sims 2...).

Anywho... Yeah. Will Wright is awsome.

I only have The Sims 2 on PS2. It's sooooooo addicting. I attempted to make MCR and FFTL sims, but they came out lame looking and they don't give you good clothes to choose from...I refuse to play Sims with my 10 year old step brother cause all he wants to do is "Woohoo" :Rolling Eyes

I do love playing it though and getting abducted by aliens XD
