Ive been playing The Sims games and expansions packs since I was around 10 and have addicted ever since, the ability to recreate yourself and make a life for someone else and control it is so addictive.

After the original sims and its seven expansion packs, it felt natural to try the new Sims 2, I got it the day it was released and although my computer at the time was quite slow to run it on, I still found it incredibly fun to play. The added features on the Sims 2 mean sims can age and life full proper lives, they can get have children, get jobs, move house and even have roommates, take holidays and have a christmas!

After updating my computing system I found the graphics alot better, the game was so much faster and navigation was better. Its fair to say that you need to experience this game for yourself to understand the hype, its a fun, easy game to play, for ages 10 to 100!
