Sims 2

I've just recently bought this game, and it's usual for me to buy this kind of PC game as I tend to like playing board games and card games

Well I seem to have become very addicted to the SIMS

I sat one day (on my hols) and never moved from the game, even forgot to eat until T Time

Has anyone else played this game?

Me.
I was a previous addict to Sims 1, and I'm to the V2.0. Altough you can't make your own aliens babies. You have to wait for one of your characters to fall in love with the current aliens.

My addiction to games come in circles : once is Sims, once is Age of Empire, once Diablo 2 or Legacy of Kain, and every time i come back to Alpha Centuri and Civilization 3. i can ploay on almost everything except FPS and soccer simulations

I never managed to make my sims fall in love

Lost its appeal after a couple of fresh starts...

My other half has been addicted to the first Sims - and the kids like to get her to design homes for the Sim characters based on their own designs.

If I'm feeling generous at Christmas, she might just get Sims2 - compensation for being an internet widow.

It's because you're a two time loser in love mate.

I have never fancied Sims but could well imagine getting addicted to it.

I tried The Sims but had to give up because I enjoyed torturing them too much. It's the computer equivelant of pulling the wings off flies

I can understand that. I quite often torture computer peoples in simulations.

One good thing of this version is that once you've designed two member of a family you can set them up as lovers. So they go directly in the same bed without fuss. No trouble with having a spere bed for one time.

Foxbat, torturing your creation is one part of the joys of this game.

I don't feel so guilty now. Maybe I'll get Sims 2 after all

I'm not mean to my sims, I try to be nice to them, because I feel sad when they make despairing faces at me if they aren't happy.

Cal, make them flirt lots, and it should work.

I used to have a problem with my sims always being very fat, but I found out that a swimming pool is the right solution to that problem, even a very small cheap one.
