I thought this game was really bad.
I got this game for my 11 year old daughter at christmas. the rating says 13 years old and older, but I thought they normaly over rate computer games and my daughter had The sims, so I didn't think it would be that much worst. When I saw what was in the game I stopped my daughter playing it. There was a love bed [that was very rude], there was a a love swing and a picnic basket that they kiss on. There was to much Love and kissing. I Think the game should be for teenages 15 years and older, not 13 years and older.
I would like to say to parents with children under 15, DON'T GET THIS GAME!
Spend money on WOMEN, not silly GAME

Guys, really! If you want to go on a date, fine... get a fine looking woman, and ASK HER OUT! If you want to sit around the house all day desperate, alone, and lonely...buy and play this game religiously!
With the amount of TIME and MONEY you spend on these PATHETIC games, you could be meeting real people, doing real things, and maybe...oh my gosh!...GETTING ***REAL*** WOMEN! LOL!
hot stuff for your sims!

I had a lot of fun using "hot date" w/ my sims, and the range of new items was pretty good. However, unlike house party and livin large, there were not many options to explore. Much like the sim's vacation, which I just got, once you go to the new areas, maybe redecorate your sim's house, there isn't much to do. Livin large gave new job possibilities, the genie (which none of us use, come to think of it) and the grim reaper. House Party gave us the option of turning our houses upside down with PARTYS and the option of seeing Drew Carey "Simulized". But hey, I'm not saying it's isn't worth it, I'm just saying buying your sim's pjs and flowers doesn't give a lot of gameplay options.
Exactly What I wanted, but not what I expected

Its the best expansion pack so far, but I can't help thinking something is missing. Though in itself, the expansion is probably the best yet. There are many new interactions such as "cuddle" "play footsie" "sweet talk" "growl" and the many ways to insult and attack people. But I am dissappointed in that there are very limited shopping capabilities and why can't you buy things for yourself (besides clothes)? I like the new magazines and all that stuff, but the other stuff is WAAAAY overpriced. At least I think. But I like the fact that you have a lot more friends to make there. Also that you have a lot more choice, ex. what gift you give people, your interests. There really isn't much new at the homestead of the sims. and no new neighborhoods(thought that can be fixed). What I do like is that there are cool new single beds for adults. And also I like the sub-categories, they make it much easier to shop, though more clicking. And the best part is definetly downtown, where you can date people, hang out with people and most importantly SHOP. lol. Anyway, the downtown area is the biggest reason to get the expansion. It makes the whole game worth your $. And I like the whole ice-cream bar and the fact that the objects just employ people. It makes things MUCH easier. And also you can take advantage of the fact that when you come back home, no matter how long you were downtown, time hasn't even passed a minute. But take it from me, this is definetly a must-have for fans.
cool and fun

this game is really cool and has like 100 new features that are jiggy! here are the pros and cons of this game
PROS~
-fun game play
-hundreds of new interactions with other sims
-many new objects
-you can go down town and do stuff on a date
CONS
-down town is kinda weird and is not that fun and it costs a lot of money (like 100$) to take a taxi there and back
-NEVER EVER USE "GOSSIP" THE OTHER SIM WILL NEVER LIKE WHAT U ARE SAYING AND IT SHOULDNT EVEN BE ON THE GAME CUZ IT DOESNT WORK
-the really stupid thing is that your house can catch fire and it burns down and u die but if this does happen just quit and come back to ur house w/out saving and every thing will be back to normal
-but if u do not save and come back ur house will catch on fire again
BUY THIS GAME ITS SO FUN AND COOL AND I LIKE TO PLAY AND U SHOULD BY IT IT IS COOLER THAN LIVIN LARGE
Soooooooooo Disappointing

Boy oh boy. I was really looking forward to playing this game. So far, all it has done is freeze up my computer. Previously, I had the Sims Deluxe Edition with House Party and everything was groovy. Since I have installed Hot Date, I have yet to close the Sims normally...it always crashes my system. My system is well beyond the minimum in all aspects. I have also installed the recommended patch, after the first few crashes.
Game won't play on Windows XP

I love the Sims have all versons play them 24-7. They take up soo much memory and then can run slow or you have to turn off all the extra items to get them to run that you lose some excitment. I bought a brand new computer just to help play the Sims Hot Date only to find that it won't play on Windows XP. Bigger problem is that Maxis states that they won't write a patch to fix this problem. You can't buy a computer now days without XP and it won't run on Windows 2000 either. Good luck to all those who don't know like me!
Hot Date.....

Getting Hot Date was like walking into a warm room on a rainy day!I was overwhelmed with all of the new items!Hot Date gives you a lot of new furniture and new plants too!In Hot Date,you can go downtown and let your Sims shop go to the beach or eat at an elegant restaurant.The selction of items outdoors are wonderful.I found that it is a lot harder to have sims in different homes fall in love!You also need to be careful with how you approach Sims.They are much easier to offend. Thanx for your time, and happy hunting!

I love the Sims. Whenit first came out, i played it all day every day. With every expansion I would get back into the game again, but not this one. I only played it for about 3 hours and I was done. It takes FOREVER for things to load and its so chopy and I have a good computer. It takes up a lot of space. The other problem is that they think its so great to have a few new furnishing and floors and wallpapers, but you can download practically anything you want from the internet. The internet is just like millions of expansions packs. You can download anything. This expansion sure didnt get me hooked.
