Only buy if you are wiling to buy a few expansions, without them this game is really boring, with them it is great fun.
User Rating: 9.5 | The Sims 2 PC
The Sims 2 is really boring with no expansions. After you build your house it is the same thing over and over again. You wake up, you go to work, and you satisfy your needs(like use the restroom and eat) And basically that is all you do without expansions. With expansions this game is one of the best there ever was. You can basically do anything you can do in real life. You can start a business, go on vacation, go to college, have pets, go on dates, do things outside, and do almost everything else there is to do in life. My score reflects what the game is like with expansions. Without them I would probably rate it a 5.0 and I would classify it as boring. Things that really frustrate me in this game is that your sim(that's what they call the person you're controlling) always goes and does you don't want them to do if they are idly standing there. They just don't know that you don't always have to do something. Also, when there are tight spaces and there a few sims there they can't move around, and takes them forever to walk away.
