Advantages: Lots of new features make for great gameplay

Disadvantages: You'll be sitting at your computer for HOURS!

Be warned - settle yourself down for a game of Sims 2 and you'll feel like you've entered a time warp because within moments you'll be saying "How on earth can it be 3am already?!". The Sims has always been a highly addictive game and the new features added in Sims 2 only give the addiction a stronger hold! You have much more control over the physical appearance and personality traits of your Sim, with an extensive selection of outfits, skin tones, eyebrow shapes, cheekbone positions and much more to tweak! As well as retaining all the basic parts of the original Sims game - and some of the more annoying parts, such as how long it takes for your Sim to go to the toilet! - your Sim also now has goals, both short term and long term, which can be anything from earning some Simoleans to going on a hot date to going to university to having a family! You can spend more time (and Simoleans!) building, decorating and extending your house with a host of new objects. There are a number of expansion packs available to make Sims 2 even better, but the original game itself will have you tied to your computer for many happy hours - absolutely top notch gaming!

Summary: An excellent, highly addictive game
