Advantages: Laptop Friendly

Disadvantages: Missing Features

The Sims Life Stories is a role play game where you control the lives of virtual characters that are created by you. You can build and decorate their houses, chose what career path they will follow and even influence who they like and dislike.

The Sims Life Stories is of simular quality to The Sims 2, however does lack certain features but also gains a few too.

The main difference between the 2 is that The Sims Life Stories has a optional scenario mode where you have to complete objectives related to 2 ready created sims lives to gain bonus items to use on the free play mode and The Sims 2 doesn't. This i think is a great feature as none of the P.C based Sims games other than the life stories ones have this feature. The other big difference is there are no add ons, sure there's The Sims Castaway Stories and The Sims Pet Stories but these are both stand alone games.

The main advantage of the game is that it's laptop friendly, it runs really fast on my laptop which has 1gb of memory and a duo core proccessor.

The main disadvantages are the lack of downloads and the fact you can only have 4 people in a family whereas in the other sims PC games you can have up to 8 people per family.

Summary: Could be better
