The Sims - Livin' Large (PC)

I will assume, that if you are reading this review, you have The Sims and are thinking of buying The Sims Livin’ It up, or you are thinking of buying The Sims and The Sims Livin’ It up in one package. So, if you are the second, you may want to know more about The Sims than there is on the back of the package box.

The expansion pack. An excuse to bleed more money out of the game buying public’s pocket? A chance to implement some new features into the game? A last attempt to prolong the life of a dated has been? Expansion packs are funny little things, especially in this day in age. Don’t get me wrong I like the idea of getting more stuff to do in a game but now that we can get most things like that, like new maps, mods and skins for all sorts of games from the Internet for free it’s a wonder why they release them, maybe the first choice on the list is all too true.

Those are the "I want to be God" gamers, the "I love to design houses" gamers, the "I love to play with action figures and barbies" gamers, then there are the "I love to create new stuff" gamers.

The new Sims 'Livin' Large' upgrade package is out. OK so in the UK it's called 'Livin' it up', I guess they felt we couldn't uderstand such hip 'n' happening language. For those of you who know and love the Sims this is probably all the information you need to whip out the credit card and bring more joy to your Sims lives, but for those who still have lives of their own here's what you're missing.
