The Sims 2

Overdone, too little to tell it apart

User Rating: 2.3 | The Sims 2 PC

By magnaboy | Review Date: March 8, 2006

The original "The Sims" was always going to be a hard game to top. With expansion packs roughly every six months to keep gamers interested and EA's pockets full, the original had almost everything you could want.

The same could not be said for "The Sims 2". Nothing really to set it apart from the original apart from 3D graphics. The gameplay is similar and the quirky expansions we come to love in The Sims are gone.

Save yourself the effort, dont bother with the basic "The Sims 2". Go take a look at the expansion packs, they may add some value to the game.
