I like it. On some reviews, I read that's this game is really good and addicting. I don't know about addicting, but I do like it. I like this game because it's like the game of life. You have to get to work on time (a car picks you up), keep your sims healthy, etc. In the beginning, you go through a tutorial to get to know the game. After the tutorial, you can create your own sims, then let them live in a house, and control them. In the beginning, there are 3 pre-built houses, and 1 lot where you can build your own house. Don't worry though. You can destroy a house if you don't like it and want to build one on your own. You can also delete a family if you want. Like I said, you're in control!I dont know if other reviews have this code. If you want more money (who doesn't?), then after you pick a family and a house, during gameplay, press and hold down Shift-Command-C, type in "Rosebud" in the grey box on the top left-hand corner, then type in !;!;!;!;!;!;!;!;!;!;!;!;!;!;!;!;!; until the grey box is full. Then press return. I don't know how many simoleans you earn (simoleans are what people call money), but it's a lot. Repeat the process for as long as you want. I think I saw somewhere that earning too much money is a bad thing, but I may be wrong. You never know.
Rating:  - Unbelievable... Aspyr has put the human experience in a box!
When I first heard of this simulation being released for PC, I must admit I was skeptical. I mean, it sounds crazy to consider simulating life. I assumed any success of the game would be due to the popularity of past "Sim" games. Never have I been so wrong! When The Sims was released for PC, and met instant fortune, I knew I had to have a Mac port ASAP! We owe this wonderful port to Aspyr because you simply couldn't release a great game without support for a great computer. So, "The Sims" has managed to allow the ordinary gamer, to become some persons fate. Scary as it is, it is also intoxicating, to have someones life in our hands. You will be tempted to ruin some lives, and start others... all of this is possible with "The Sims." Many people don't know, but the creator of "The Sims" had originally set out to create an architecture game. Eventually, he realized that he was adding more and more people to the point where people were the game, and architecture, a commodity. Regardless, the original theme has carried over to "The Sims" and the user may design his sim's home and property. Maybe one of the coolest tricks... is that of the shopping. Gamers can buy their sims new things (ie. TVs, furniture, etc...) only enhancing the reality of this game. But of course, there's more... While the game is not about romance, there is enough to keep it from being rated "E for Everyone". Still, it isn't too much for the average kid. It IS a family game, after all. I certainly hope this review was helpful. Perhaps you're ordering now. Or maybe you can't handle being a god? Whatever.... just ORDER NOW!
Rating: - Quite possibly the most inventive game in history
THis is the most creative game of history. You control the sims lives. It's great cause you can totally screw their lives up if your so suited. Or you can propell them to unprecented fame. You even build their houses. You can torment them as much as your mind wishes. but the best feature is the create-a-sim, which allows you make a sim. You can make yourself and your friends or just bs it. This is a fun game that is a great source of entertainment. The only reason it didn't get five stars is cuz it can and does get old. But that's what the expansion pack(s) are for. I suggest you buy the sims wait a few months then buy the expansion packs.
