The Sims 2

I loved this game from the moment I installed it.

User Rating: 9.9 | The Sims 2 PC

This game certainly lives up to what it is supposed to be. I loved the first Sims pc game for sure. But this game tops the original even with its expansion packs. The new additions to the game, such as Wants, Fears, and Aspirations really helps the gameplay and develops the game into something special. Aging was definitely a great addition as well. All in all, The Sims 2 is one of the best PC games i've ever played.

At times however, the game does tend to get a slow framerate at certain parties and gatherings with many people. Turning down the resolution on the game and some of the extras helps to remedy this. There are also a few bugs here and there, but that can be expected for such an innovative game, and most of them are minute anyway.

I highly recommend this game to any fan of the original series, and even if you've never played a Sims game in your life, here's the place for you to start. Buy this game!
