Xmas hit in my household

My 6 and 9 yr olds love gaming characters with tattoos, piercings, funky clothes & hair. We have Sims for the PC (for which I think I've developed an addiction) but this seemed a little more up their alley. I noticed that on one of their wrestling games they spend hours creating and adjusting the characters, so I thought this would be a great game for them. I was totally right. They are content with just changing the characters' appearances and arguing with each other about what's cool and what's not. Definitely one of my better purchases this season.

Liked the other Sims better..........

It was nice to play a different version of Sims, but I'm a die-hard fan of the Sims we all know and love. After playing this game, I went back to Sims Bustin Out. Urbz doesn't have much replay value. If they could make a PS2 version of Sims 2 for PC, then I would be in heaven. I love all of the Sims games, EXCEPT the Urbz.

More addicting than drugs

Okay, people write reviews saying that this game is too short. It isn't. The only reason this game seems so short is because it's so additcing. So you play it 24/7, and time flies by really fast, making the game seem short. Trust me, this game is REALLY addicting, and I recommend it to any Sim-lover.

Not what I was expecting

I got the game to rent, and thought it looked cool.
The only thing is that if you want to be good instead of bad it is no fun.And when they use the bathroom, you can hear it. The sim music is all human vocals, you cant buy stuff unless you get promoted, which is really hard.
And you cant get pets. It looks nothing like the previews and pictures on the web.

I would not recommend this game
I would play the sims the regular one for PS2

put bad things to good use

well the game is pretty cool. but its not like the other sims like bustin out.
this game is alot different, like instead of building a house you just fix your apartment
and instead of pressing the X button over and over and over until your guy moves but now you actuallycontrol it.
And at your job instead of waiting you get to control it
. some people wrote reviews about this before
beating the game so they get stuff wrong like the fact that you can have pets.
i read two people reviews that complained about not being able to have them. but its a pretty good game overall. and to the
point of my title the load times are fairly long but look
on the bright side while you wait you can use the bathroom

My kids loved this game

Usually when I am about to buy a game, I rent it first to see if I like it.. I didn't like Urbz...
The game is some-what fun, but what threw me off was the graphics and inability to do what I wanted in the game. It was hard to pick a spacific thing to do.. the "arrow" used to pointing and picking out something was very jerky. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE the Sims!!! But I find the video games horrible!

What the F@$% is This?

This game was horrible. The graphics are crapy and the game is slugish, ON A CONSOLE! its like amazon took a s*** in a box and charged you $20 bucks for it. Overall this game isn't worth a pile of cow s***

It was a pretty good game. Quite different layout than the other Sims games. My only complaint is that it took forever for everything to load. I assumed it would be like that with a playstation. But there were so many different areas to go to that it really added up.
