I've played every sims console game (besides the Urbz) and this is the best one in my opinion. I've been playing this game since I got it in 2004. The story mode is wonderful in this sims console game. The story mode starts out easy then as the game prgresses it gets more challenging (though not impossible). As you go through the story mode you unlock various things; cars, objects, social interactions, free play mode etc. In the story mode your character is basicly going through a story. In the free play mode (unlocked through story mode) you get to choose a house and live your life. You can be a single sim or a sim with a family. Your house can also have various different pools and spas. If I had to rate this 1-10 with 10 being the best I would give it a 9.5/10. The only thing that could make this game better would be to have multiple story houses. I think that bustin out will remain one of my top console sims games. Looking forward to MySims for the Wii, which will be released in late 2007 and is supposed to feature multiple story houses.

Great Game!!!!!!!

I am 12 years old and I loved this game! My computer does not have enough memory to play this game on it. Many people say buy it on PC. I say buy it on Gamecube. You make a Sim and you start out living with your mom and the goals are so easy there you will be out of her house in a few days. At first I was worrying about when you are at work you have to sit there and wait. You can put it in triple fast forward so you don't even sit there for a minute. The only thing I don't like about the game is that at Pixel Acres you can get "FREE" naked. That is the most stupiest thing in the game. When you start playing the game you are a bit short of cash but you can cheats from websites and get more money. I am so rich now, I have $158,786. I also like the free play. There is no goals and you can build your own house and have your own family. This game is a must have. I know it does say for teens. I disagree, when they go to the bathroom or take a shower it is blured out. You can have kids but you just go up to your husband or wife and kiss them and a crib appears. They don't curse because they don't talk. This game teaches also. You have to pay bills and feed your sim. You have to go to work and all. I loved this game.

A no-no, Maxis.

I really like the Sims for PC. But this is not the Sims for PC. I bought it for the Online thing and guess what? Maxis randomly decided to take the best feature out of the game! No more servers! And it shut down around 2004. When it was still new! Stupid.

The new features are.

More sim customization tools. But don't think it's like the Sims 2 for PC. You pick from a small variety of whatever part you are working on. 4 different skin colors, 3 different body shapes, and 3 face customization tools
Incredible 3-D graphics. The 3-D graphics are absolutely stunning and breath-taking! It is so beautiful! Even prettier than the Sims 2 for PC which is unbelievable.
New objects from recent expansion packs from The Sims 1 franchise which are pretty much cool. Especially the Sim-Eating Plant! Really hilarious!
A WIDE variety of interactions such as "Bust a move" and "Bear Hug" which aren't a big deal but if you have either high or low relationship points it could turn out to be a funny reaction! Like, if you Bear Hug someone who is your enemy that sim will throw you to the ground.
16 all-new locations which is pretty nice. My favorite was Mimi's Place. Most other places weren't that fun. OH OH and the Goth Manor!! Awesome!
New NPC's not included in the Sims for PC such as Monica, Rubb, and some other weird sim who I don't know :-)
New wallpaper coverings, floor coverings, and plantings.

HOT LIKE FIRE

This is my first time playing this game on gamecube. I play this game on my niece xbox system and it was fun. A have littie trouble at first but then got the hang of it. The ghraric is great. Still learning the button for this game but I still still there. I don't know why people give this less star then this but it's all good. (for both the xbox and gamecube.)

I love this game so much! It has a classic touch to it, when you start out, you are in your mother's house, and she keeps nagging you to get a job, which makes it feel like it is real, I can't believe that the sims creator ever changed this!

And then when you get a new job, whoever you need to move in with, will give you the scooter, but in the future, you can upgrade it to a car, and other things I don't know. I haven't completed the game yet, I just went straight to play the sims mode right away (R1 R2 L1 L2) all at the same time and then enter in sims.

It has a nice feeling to it, there are public areas, houses, that you can visit, and the mom should never had been changed! Now she doesn't even look like a mom! She looks like a green monster, I liked the previous mom. :'(

OVERALL GET THIS GODDAMN GAME!

Great... for a while

This game is great, you get to manage your sims but it gets boring trying to complete goals. Also you take a long time getting everything unlocked. This game is good but be prepared to play it for a few days or even weeks and then put it in your closet and wait a few weeks and play again to make it fun again.

It can be better

This games pretty good but it requires the highest powerd GCN Memory Card Out. Thats the worst downside. Its pretty good but gets boring after progressing through for a couple hours of the game. This game is good for those rare people that like to play videogames for a short period of time and play again a little later in the day. I don't reccomend this game to NEW sims players because this can be pretty confusing of a game and the little booklet given with the game sucks it is printed in Black & White. NOW THATS CHEAP!

The Sims

The Sims Bustin' Out is one of my favorite video games. Having beaten the game at least 3 times (I'll tell you, it took me forever!) by finishing all of the different careers, etc. I had a lot of fun with it. What makes this game the most fun in my opinion is that you can actually get around and move to different locations with vehicles. This was fun to unlock new vehicles and drive to the new locations in the game. My younger siblings liked it as well. My favorite house was Casa Caliente, a new house in which Randy and Paisley live. I would suggest getting into the movie star career or fashion career. This game is great, and it's worth every penny!

My kids love it

I bought this for my daughter and her and her friends will play it for hours. They get a kick out of the real life action of the characters they make in the game.
