The Sims 2: Pets

So after recently writing a review of The Sims 3, I decided it was time to do a review of all of my Sims 2 games since I'm not ready part with them just yet! I'm starting with the Sims 2 Pets because it's the one I have the most to say about it. WHAT'S IT ABOUT The Sims 2 Pets Is an expansion pack for The Sims 2 which allows your Sims to add a furry friend to their family. You can chose pets including dogs, cats, birds and Guinea pigs. Buy them from a pet shop or adopt a stray kitten or Puppy then breed your pets or train them to do tricks. ADVANTAGES The pets are really cute and you can customise their fur patterns and colours to make ...  Read the complete review

I used to be obsessed with those little computerised characters who ran across the screen living the perfect lives you could create for them. When I was about ten I had the first Sims 1 game and then gradually built up my sims worlds by buying the different expansion packs. When I was around twelve or thirteen the Sims 2 came out so i had to ditch Sims 1 and buy a load more expansion packs for the new Sims. As well as having Sims 2: Pets, I also had the Christmas expansion pack, Open for Business and Glamour Life which were all just as fun. I am an animal lover and when I saw Sims 2: Pets I just knew I had to buy it. With the Sims 2: ...  Read the complete review

Alright then. You like the Sims 2. You love it, in fact. You wanna add some adorable pets to your little sim families. That makes sense. You asked EAxis for it and they delivered... what did they deliver? Well, exactly what you asked for, pets! Absolutely nothing else! Sure, there are a few extra things in this EP but not very many, to be honest. Its theme revolves around having a very limited amount of... pets, limited to a dog and a cat of different breeds. Making the cat and the dog is quite fun as you can add up layers on its skin to nearly five-hundred, if I am not mistaken. You also make your pet have a personality but it's quite basic, you get to pick from ...  Read the complete review

The product I am reviewing is "the Sims 2 pet's expansion" About a year ago I loved playing on the Sims 2 games. I paid £14.99 for this game from play.com Id purchased : The Sims 2 University, The Sims 2 Nightlife, The Sims 2 Open For Business, The Sims 2 Family Fun Stuff Pack, The Sims 2 Seasons ,The Sims 2 Bon Voyage and of course last but not least the Sims 2 pets . The thing that appealed to me the most about purchasing the expansion and stuff packs were the fact they offered great new furniture, hair styles, clothes, dialect, houses, cars and many other things my Sims could experiment. Buying the expansion packs made playing ...  Read the complete review

This expansion pack is really worth the money as it adds a whole new element to the game. however, you don't get very many new objects or furnishing styles with the pack, apart from the obvious pet related things. One problem that I had with it was that it has the same problem that I have experienced with some of the smaller add ons- red flashing walls due to the video card. None of the suggested solutions are any help, and I eventually had to but a new video card. So don't try to run this on an older machine or laptop! The pack itself is fantastic though. The pets are absolutely adorable and breeding them is loads of fun- the puppies and kittens ...  Read the complete review
