The Sims 2 Deluxe (PC, 2007)

This reviewer won't get into game-play as there's countless videos showing how The Sims 2 functions.

While not "The Double Deluxe" pack that you see in most stores nowadays, The Sims 2 game and Nightlife expansion are included in this box. The quality of artistry is notably visible in every facet of the game. And even though The Sims 2 has a very large modding community, this is a game that can easily stand on it's own as a keeper. Every decision of every Sim can alter the state of the game. That in itself is worth having a game for, but the goodness keeps on coming. Skill and wit will help you keep your Sims happy and attaining their "life goals" is no easy matter for even the most skilled gamer. Give and take is a necessity in the world of The Sims 2.

The Sims 2 puts you in charge of the fate of city and town residents known as Sims (or Simulations). Most of the main characters have well thought out stories, families, turn on/off's, interests and hobbies allowing a sort of Roleplay experience.

Bottom line is that this game's expansions may be overly priced for an older game, but THIS package is well worth the $20 you may have to put into it.

I bought it for my daughter, she likes to build houses , its great for someone how likes to design things. Another thing is you can see how the sims charaters interact with each other.
The way this game is its pretty interesting.
The outits the kids get to pick from , hair styles , all that fun stuff.
They even get to design the house their characters get to live in.
One thing I thought was pretty neat.. My teen had to make sure to feed the crew, when they are hungry or sleepy a bubble thing pops up.
In other words its a pretty interesting game.

I've been a fan of the series for a long time, and, well, I have to speak up.

The Sims 2 is the game for everyone. It never ends, because you have so much you can do. And if you do kill off the entire Goth family, make your own. And if you get bored ofthem, go to Veronaville and live like Romeo and Juliette.

It really is a wonderful game and if you're thinking about it, just do it. What I love is that they made up a language, so it's up to you what they're talking about.
