The Sims 2: Open for Business (Add-On) (PC) ... Business is the third expansion pack for The Sims 2, released on March 3, 2006, which allows Sims to run a home or community lot based business. The idea of a Sims business tycoon game may seem odd, but this is a surprisingly fun and accessible expansion. Although you can stay at home and create items to sell, most businesses are run from a new shopping centre area, which you can also visit separately. To run a shop you buy objects as normal, and then display and price them individually, or in bulk for your store. Running a restaurant or other service is more a case of creating the right mood with furniture and staff. You can hire and fire employees as you want, but it’s worth being as hands-on as you can because you gain a wide range of new skills from the work you do.

Other than this, shops can be made to sell any of the other items in the Sims catalogue (paintings, furniture etc.) You can chose the stock and set the price, employ Sims, gather sales and restocking badges and gain customer loyalty and perks and climb the business rankings. *Benefits* + Additional clothes and 125 new objects, including a Lemonade stand and elevator + Sims' Turn-ons and Turn-offs can be set to facilitate match-making + Businesses provide more diverse game play a...more

Another sims expansion pack and this one is relativley new territory for EA. We've had a remake of The Sims vacation with The Sims 2 Bon Voyage, The Sims unleashed is The Sims 2 Pets and The Sims Hot Date is similar to The Sims 2 Nightlife. So this expansion pack is exciting and one which represents a new challenge for simmers. WHAT IT'S ABOUT The Sims 2 Open for Business allows Sims to build and run there own businesses, from restaurants to florists to toy stores and bakeries. Your Sims can run home based business or buy a community lot to create your own retail megastores. Watch you business flourish or flounder as you try to win over your ...  Read the complete review

Ever since I was in Primary school, my friends and I have been quite obsessed with the sims! The craze started out with the Sims one, which I latched onto pretty quickly! Though when Sims 2 was first released, I didn't really bother with it. However last year I decided to buy the game, and many of the expansion packs to go with it. One of these expansion packs is Open For Business. Open For BUsiness can be easily recognised on the shelves as it has a bright orange cover, with the Sims 2 logo on the front, and OPen For Business written underneath in a handy shop window sign. There are two 'sims' on the front too, working hard at a till and eating a cake. How ...  Read the complete review

I bought this expansion pack because I found the Sims 2 on its own a bit boring and have to say I really like this expansion pack. You need the original Sims 2 to play this game, this is an add on to the game. Sims 2 Open for Business gives you the chance to create your own business with staff from either your sims home or you can create another building. You have the chance to create various businesses like bakeries, clothes shops, salons and so on. You can make the business successful and it makes the Sims 2 game much more interesting. The game is being sold for £20 but if you look about the internet you can find it for a cheaper price. Ebay does ...  Read the complete review

I bought this and expected it to be good but it was amazing! This is the best of all the sims expansion packs (in my opinion) as you can really create a booming business for your sim characters! You can hire and fire employees, set uniforms, price items and manage your employees - a modern day Alan Sugar!! You can have any business such as bakery, restraunt, clothes tore or local shop - selling everything that your sims could possibly need! You can build your own business empire and have as many shops as you like which is great. If your sim would rather not buy a sommercial unit or is a stay at home parent there is also the option of starting a ...  Read the complete review

The Sims 2 is a game that everyone loves, it is a great game and you will have hours of fun playing it. The Sims 2 open for business, is one of the better expansion packs, you get to go to work with your sims because they can now run their own business. You can run a shop, cafe, restaurant, hairdresser and many more. This can be really fun but also can be annoying if you don't succeed in your business. You must gain customer loyalty so you know they will come back. Make sure to make money, not lose it... This expansion pack also adds new furniture, outfits, locations, shops and many more. You will definitely have loads of fun and entertainment with ...  Read the complete review
