Gameplay-9/10-With new gameplay features, such as the fully functional camera, that zooms in all the way from every side, new create a sim options, and the new generation feature, where your sims actully grow old and die. Sims 2 has all that Sims one had, with much more. The only thing that the game lacks are very many objects, but I know it will get more when expansion packs come along. The first sims had a lot of expansion packs, therefore, way more objects and options. Graphics-10/10-The graphcis have made a revolutionary leap from the first game. The sims look remarkably real in this game, with lighting and shadows portrayed very well. Sound-9/10-The sound will be a flashback for people who played the first sims because basicly what the music Sims 2 offers, is a different version of original songs from Sims one, with a few new songs. Value-9/10-Sims 2 is worth buying, because not only are you controlling their lives, you're writing their story. Wether your playing as your family, yourself, or someone completely fictional, you will have a great time with it. Tilt-This is a great new addition to an already outstanding game. The Sims, was one of my favorite PC games of all time, and with all the old features, and so much more to offer, Sims 2 is definitly one my favorites.
