after being addicted to the sim's pc games for like 2 years, just about, i got all the expansion packs and enjoyed them all. then i got the ps2 sim's game and w-o-w. the first 3 days of having the game i didn't do any thing but play it. all of the good humor made me crack up out loud. this was a fun and entertaining game for me and obviously alot of other people. :-)
I Liked it but...

I love the Sims games, but a few things i dont like about it is you have a buying limmit, so its not as fun as the Pc game. Another thing is you cant make a two story house, only one. But i like the idea about haveing a goal on the get a life. And its easier to controll on this game once you get used to it, unless youve been playing the PC for a while. Another thing is it kinda gets boring and pointless once you pass it, so i think they should make another PC into PS2, like unleashed or vacation.

This is The First Simulator that adjective "life" to the ps2 console, perhaps it's a break-trough? you have two modes: "Get A Life!" Mode, & "Play The Sims", Get A Life Mode it's for make money, and do your nessecery goals, Play The Sims it's thr version we all know. What is New In this Version? You Can Angle the camera view like 360 degress, and to do a very very close zoom. I can't tell you in words how much big this game, see for yourself.
Very fun, not as expandable as PC version but great for PS2

Yeah, so you can't upgrade like the PC sims version but for a PS2 version, it's highly entertaining. A worth while buy for Sim fans who want something on their PS2. Some of the downfalls, the controller can be a bit tricky and at times confusing but after playing the intro, easily masterable. The 2 player function is definately an added bonus and tons of fun, however, for users with a smaller TV set it can be a bit conjested and an eye strain. All in all, I think The Sims for the PS2 is a fun adaptation of the PC version with many hours of entertainment to offer to all ages.

I thought I'd see what the hype was on the sims games. It's pretty easy to get the hang of the controls. I basically started out a house with every guys dream.. you and 2 hot twins. It seems however that if you spend all day in the hottub your characters get upset.. something about not having a job and never using the toilet?? Who does that now-a-days anyways? Honestly this game isn't my thing and I don't understand how so many people can be hooked by such a simple and unrewarding game. It's intertaining but I'd say rent before you buy, unless you play sims for the computer.. then I'm sure you already know you want it you addict.
Great Graphics

I love the 3D graphics in this game. Better and faster than the PC version and much faster than the Online version.
Don't waste your time with this

There's only one word to describe this game: EA. It's coming out on Gamecube and X-Box new and improved over the PS2 version, just like James Bond Agent Under Fire, James Bond Nightfire, Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, and Metal of Honor Frontline did. PS2 is my favorite system, but don't waste your time with one of EA's downgraded products for it.
Great! Has more stuff than PC version!

This gsma eis great although you have to get used t the controller. I reccomend that you buy it but if you don't like action games, I reccomend you put this game down. It's ok and if you play with our friends in 2 player mode, it is hillarious having fun with friends and family. When you are enemies in 2 players you could insult each other and other stuff. If you like The Sims get it, it will get boring though dont get the Sims online, it's just a chatroom trust me.

I’m not going to go into the history of how this game is much like the computer version, instead at how it screwed up. I bought this game on its release date, however recently the game doesn’t work right. First there is no audio coming out. Second three to four minutes into the game the entire thing locks up. Irritating when I almost completed the Get a life scenario. However, I must admit, this game is like playing with grown up Barbie’s (a lot better though). We get to dress them certain ways, have families, homes, and jobs. I love this game; except for the hassle it has given me recently. It was about time that there was a girly game for Playstation 2.

The Sims for Playstation 2 takes gaming to a whole new perspective! It has to be the best game in my opinion. Its like living somebody elses life for them. Theres a variety of things to do from watering plants to building big houses and controling your own virtual family. It clearly is an unbelievebaly good game. I definately recommend this game to someone who is looking for a whole new type of gaming experience or just something totally new. Plus it has great graphics a Get a Life mode where you advance through lifes big moments such as: learning to cook, responsibility, getting married, finding a job, and raising children. The other playing mode is Play the Sims where you just build a house design it yourself and furninsh it with a great amount of furnishings. It is awesome! If you get a chance to play it, PLAY IT YOU WONT BE SORRY!
