Where will it end? I can't say whether or not everysim requires these new features but certainly no house party should be without them. Just be sure to experience the real thing before sim'ing it.

I thought this would be good, but I found it boring. No new jobs, if you don't have lots of memory, the party goes slow. Sure, there is some cool stuff, but it is just chairs, tables, walls and floors. I mean, you don'r really look at the walls. No new beds. They could just make one new career ladder, but they didn't. I recamend that you don't buy this game! And there has been lots of complants about bugs in this ep! Save you money, and save it for better ep!

It looked so cool, but when I got it, I was queit dissapointed! the sims got home at 1, and it takes up lots of memory. I have it intsalled, but I don't throw parties. it is a stupid expansion pack. MARK MY WORDS! DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON IT! What Maxis needs is new jobs!

Overpriced!

I know that $*** does not get you much these days, but at least Maxis could have included something worth the price of admission. Parties are VERY expensive to throw and do not benefit your Sims very much. Skip this one and hope for more from "Hot Date".

The expansion pack crashes everytime try to run it. Had to de-install. No customer support. It might be fun - IF you can get it to run.

(>_<) (^_^)Great Game for losers and people with NO LIVES!

SO!!!for the local loser looking for a great good ol' time(Laughs) then this games the one for you! (Including all the other additions, upgrades and what have you)

What's New?

What's new? You can screw up your Sims' lives, inject some romance or have them partying like wild dogs, other than that, what's new? Sadly nothing. Nothing at all.

The Sims Expansion: House Party is basically an add-on pack that focus on the social interaction of your Sim(s). New Party items such as costumes, toys and an "improved" way to call your Sim friends are in this package.

This is what I liked about this package. The new items, such as those electrifying cages, the time-saving pre ordered meals,the groovy disco floor tiles and the mechanical rodeo that somehow really add a punch to the whole "party" package, but that is all I find interesting about the expansion pack. To tell the truth, I kind of regretted buying it .

Here is what I hate about this package. Unlike the previous expansion pack, The Sims: Livin' It Large (which I enjoyed tremendously) this expansion pack doesn't have new neighbourhoods to build new Sim homes for. Sadly, most of the "new-items" in The Sims Expansion: House Party doesn't seem to be a big help to throw parties at all! And let's not talk about the party crasher! Instead of adding fun to the game (hey, it is fun to see your Sims screw up you know), this guy adds frustration!

The gameplay is still basically the same. Click to have your Sim do this or that. Take care of their needs or forget about it to mess up their lives. Yawn. Intially, half the fun of playing The Sims comes from the humorous ways your Sims acts. Unfortunately, the game actually gets boring after playing it for a long time.

The Sims Expansion: House Party could have been a great expansion pack to buy if it ACTUALLY had some new features (hey EA! Why not make the Sims fly?). Same old boring game with same old boring concept.

Don't get this game unless you are a die-hard Sims fan. Save your money for something else.

*Da Bomb!!!*

Anyone who says house party is a piece of junk.. is totally wrong!! This is the best game in the whole computer history!! Not only can you create people, edit their personality and more, this game has everything you need to make the best party ever!! It has a costume trunk, where you can choose anything from togas and more, It has awesome new styles in clothing and it has houses with themes, for example you can build a hawaiian house and more, It has the option to just talk to other neighbors over the phone, It has dance floors, and dj boothes, a electronic rodeo thing, and my personal fave: the dance cages!! It's the best way to get your sims friends and it is the best sims game in all of sims history!! buy it fast!!

this expansion pack [is really bad]! the livin large one was great but this one has nothing more than music and food. the dancers u can higher dont take off NONE of their clothes and u cant higher more than one entertainer at a time. the things that ARE good in this game are a birthday cake,punkin and the campfire.and also the all girl and all boy bathroom. once u buy the birthday cake, you are already starting a birthday party, u can choose who's birthday it is that day. this expansion pack doesnt come with the vibromatic heart bed either. when u get the sims house party you will feel like you are playing the original sims.

To tell you the truth it sucked.The items are cool(bubble chair ect.....)But you could hardly build a good home if you already have a full house with many other items.And the partys are confusing because to many people come and you have no clue who you are meeting!
