The Sims 2 (DS) Reviews

Oooohh I love these games! To give The Sims 2 my best, I think it will require me to put the DS on and go through the game bit by bit...... (great excuse hey!) Ok first things first this game is unlike some other same games, this game is based around you running a hotel and not your home like usual. Before playing ...  Read the complete review

I loved the SIMS on the PC and brought loads of the expansion packs, I recently recieved a DS and this was a game that I instantly wanted. However, the first time I played it I was quite disappointed! I was expecting to create my own house, decorating it with different wallpaper and carpets, creating my SIMs to put in the house....but no! You ...  Read the complete review

I first bought the Sims 2 on PC and I quite literally became obssessed with playing it. I started buying all sorts of expansion packs for it so that I kept interested in the game. I have bought a DS quite recently and for it I decided to buy the Sims 2 hoping that it would be a good portable version of the PC version and to an extent it was. I ...  Read the complete review

I've played the Sims on the PC, so when i first bought this game (£20) , i expected it to be similar, as in your build a family, get a job, have kids and die LOL. However i was a little disappointed that the game was completelet different to the PC game, although i still enjoyed the sims on the DS very much! In the game, you are the ...  Read the complete review

AVAILABILITY The Sims 2 is the eagerly awaited follow up for the original Sims game that was available on PC all them years ago! It is available on a number of platforms, including the DS and is available at a number of online stores and all good gaming shops. Currently on sale in Game for £14.99. GAMEPLAY I was very wary of ...  Read the complete review

At first I didn't like the look of this game as it's not like other Sims games I had played. You only get to play as yourself; you can't create characters like in the previous games. You are tasked with becoming the manager for the town's hotel and have to build up the rooms as you make money. Unfortunately I saved up my money and built all ...  Read the complete review

I regularly play the sims on PC, so i brought this game to play on the go, i was highly dissapointed. *Gameplay and Storyline* You turn up at this town and are placed with the task of running a successful hotel, so its not as free as a normal sims game. The gameplay is fairly repetitive, repetitive, repetitive.... and in the end ...  Read the complete review

I'm a bit obsessed with The Sims if im honest, so when I got my DS I was excited to buy this as I always play it on the PC. I paid £20 for it and if im honest it was a complete waste of money, you can only make one sim and have to play it in story mode, you can't make a few sims and play a family. You can have 3 saved games. It starts ...  Read the complete review

The aim of this game is to run a functioning and successful hotel which seems easy at first but gradually gets harder and harder. I found this game quite difficult in some parts and had to look for tips on the internet as I quite regularly got stuck and could not figure out what to do next. I restarted the game numerous times to try again but ...  Read the complete review

Firstly I'd like to say to all Sims fans that this is not your typical Sims gameplay. Forget looking after hunger, sleep etc. in the usual way as does not exsist! All of this is now incorperated into your 'sanity' meter. This is highly confusing to begin with but give it time as it only takes a small time to get used to. The general jist of ...  Read the complete review

I love The Sims, The Sims 2 and can't wait for The Sims 3 (which comes out on 20th February), however this game really does belong on the PC. It's just not the same on any other console as I found out whilst playing The Sims 2 on my DS. The Sims 2 on the DS is very limited, even the fun part of creating characters is lost with about ...  Read the complete review

The Sims 2. I bought this sims 2 DS Game as I spotted it on offer in the GAME Store, along with the Sims 2 Pets. I bought it whilst it was on offer. I paid £30 for the two games which seemed fairly reasonable. I have played Sims before on the PC and was kind of expecting it to be fairly similiar however i ended up very disappointed with this ...  Read the complete review

I really enjoyed this game but was very dubious about it owing to the fact that I had tried to play the sims before on my ps2 and really didnt get it at all. With this game for the DS I found it much simpler and easier to understand without having to sit and read the instructions for hours. You basically have to build up your hotel by various ...  Read the complete review

I love all the other sim games that I have played as you have total freedom and got to try all different things and had control over another person's life which is really the main point of the sims. This was very different and I didn't really like it. You don't really have the control over your character that is associated with normal sim games. ...  Read the complete review

I love the sims on PC, just love it! The idea behind it and all the little things you can do are just great, so I was very excited to try it out on the DS. What a disappointment! It may be called Sims 2 and the graphics may look similar, but that is about it! The game just seemed like a bit of a con to be honest, and i found it quite ...  Read the complete review

Sims 2 is my favourite DS game!!! If your already a fan of the Sims Games you will love this one! If you haven't played a Sims game before then this is a great one to start with. Usually the sims focuses around houses and people, basically acting out their lives for them. This game is a bit different as you get to run a business. You ...  Read the complete review

Anyone who has played a Sims game will know the format - you create your own family of 'Sims', you build them a house, and you guide them in their relationships and careers whilst buying better furniture, having babies, meeting new people... and sometimes maybe locking them into rooms they can't get out of, setting fire to the house, and making ...  Read the complete review

The Sims 2 for DS has a different style of gameplay to the PC version of the game. It is more of a closed gameplay where you compete missions to proceed, compared to the open ended gameplay of the PC version. You can customise your game to some extent in The Sims 2 for DS, e.g. you can choose your character's appearance and change the furniture in ...  Read the complete review

I found this game completely addictive! I was bought it last Christmas with the DS Lite and couldn't stop playing it for a week solid! If you are a fan of the Sims, you will really enjoy this game. It is a bit different from the PC game, as you are essentially given charge of running a hotel, and whilst doing so you have to solve ...  Read the complete review

I had this game bought on christmas last year and I was very glad I had not spent my own money on it. I enjoy sims games and was glad to have a version I can play on the move but sadly I was disapointed. This isn't sims, there is no building your own house, no making a family none of the stuff that really makes a sims game a sims ...  Read the complete review
