I know a lot of people have seriously bashed this game and I must admit I really did expect a lot more but I will tell you the truths about this game so if you decide to buy it YOU really know what you are buying. Firstly, don't get the charter eddition because it REALLY isn't worth it. Ok now lets compare some things. The game really does not have an objective. I think it REALLY desperatly needs that. All you do is socialize, make money (VERY SLOWLY), and build a home. It really is basically a avatar chat. I mean you get to have room mates, you get to build a h ome. I think the game is fun but it definetly needs some upgrades that I assume will be made eventually :-) ...

I got this game for Christmas when it first came out and for about a year i loved it. Then once after a update that i had to download it i could no longer access my account. I conteacted tech support MANY times to NO avail. The told me the problem was on my end...but that wouldnt explain why i couldnt log into the game after i could get part way in. They even had me download and reinstall and what-not. BUT..i still could not get in. I tried for 3 months..paying the 12 bucks a month and not being able to play the game. I am not the only person who has had this problem either. Beware this game. Its very fun..until you can't play it anymore and cannot get tech support.

This game is no game. It is no fun at all especially because of its price 75$ for a cardboard box and for online chat after 3 months. I thought it would be alot more fun then the online virtual chat that im using for FREE, but apparently it ... I dont want to pay money to do something I can do for free.

First let me assure you that things like skill decay, not getting into your own house and other complaints issued on this page have been dealt with.

I have been a beta tester for over 2 months and the game has come a long way. It is the Sims with the added value of having real people instead of just artificial Intelligence. You make of the game what you want, one review stated that. That is probably the most truthful statement I have heard so far. Go for the money, the stuff you can buy, to be the most skillfull or have the most friends. Truthfully I play for the friends. Many of the Sims you will play with will become real friends!

in this game you have another life. its fun when you can create your own charachters. you can make him or her look like a polar bear or an alien, and best( whitch cant get inside anywhere!), a clown. also the sims online taught me alot of new things. i also got to play poker at a casino thing. it was cool.you can also chat but they will say weird things you never heard. also i got to go in jacuzzis and go to weddinngs. i am ten but in the game i told them that my real life age was 21! this game is fun. BUY IT!

If EA ruins any more of Maxis's games I am going to plant a bomb in their headquarters!

Everyone remembers Maxis in the 90's. Maxis spent time in their games and didn't just focus on garphics and they didn't let money get to them.

Now, Maxis makes a bad mistake, which will probably ruin their company, THEY JOINED EA! EA is a fat, greedy company who is buying all the good companies into them. Money, Money, Money is all they care about.

EA caused the Sims expansion pack disaster and made the Sims Online a flop.

And the worst thing is, THEY RUINED SIMCITY! AHHHHHHHHHH!

SimCity 4 was a very anticipated game. When it gets released, EA makes Maxis hurry it up so they can get money. EA just wants to bring it to stores without even giving Maxis the time to check for bugs.

Oh, back to the game. It is not that great. Thanks to EA.

The title of this review says it all.... that is pretty much how the game went for me. Granted the first hour was interesting to look at the houses people built and try out all the gadgets and gizmos but after that it was just an expensive chat room. Sitting at a chess board and 'hearing' Hello, welcome, come on in and thanks over and over is not my idea of a game.... I had a blast building a house, decorating and filling it with everything I possible could but after that... chat room mode set in and I was never into those, even the free ones.....
