Superstar- experience the lifestyles of the rich and famous and guide you Sims to stardom. Make a name for yourself as a movie star, rock star or fashion model, and then spend your hard earned cash on a selection of extravagant new items for your home. Will your Sims skyrocket to fame or fade into obscurity? Dazzle directors, rock the recording studio or light up the fashion runway. Indulge in a mud bath, massage or a visit to the oxygen bar.

Makin' magic- add a little magic to your Sims' lives. Cast spells, hypnotize friends, and even turn your neighbour into a frog. But watch out, spells can go haywire if you're not careful. Either way, the neighbourhood will never be the same. Perform magic, quest for ingredients, and unlock spell recipes. Craft charms, animate minions, and add magical decor.

On holiday- take your Sims on a holiday of a lifetime. You choose whether they'll spend the weekend at a beach resort, rough it in the woods, or chill out in a winter wonderland. Whether they're embarking on a family adventure or hooking up on a romantic getaway, your Sims will always have plenty to do on Vacation Island.

Unleashed- give your Sims the chance to add a furry friend to the family. Housebreak your pets, train them to do tricks, buy them toys, treats and accessories, and do your best to keep them from destroying the house! Create new community lots with parks, cafes, shops, and a market. Adopt a dog, cat or another pet for your Sims.

Hot date- play a matchmaker to your Sims and watch the sparks fly or fizzle. Get them out of the house and into the all-new downtown area where there'll be gossip over a candlelit dinner, buy gifts for their dates or just cruise the Strip in the hope of getting lucky. Will your Sims find true love or be destined to a lifetime membership in the lonely hearts club? Create a downtown neighbourhood complete with shops, restaurants, parks and a beach. Improve long and short-term relationships with over 40 new one-on-one interactions.

House Party- it's the party of the year for the game of the year and you're the host. You decide if its time for your Sims hoedown at a country barn dance, chow down at a tropical Hawaiian Party, or go underground at a rave. Will your party be a smash or a snore? House party is your invitation to rock your Sims' house! Rock with the house with 5 new music and dance styles. Mix and mingle your Sims in new group activities. Build the ultimate theme party with new Cowboy, Rave and Hawaiian Party design sets.

My personal favourite would have to be The Sims Superstar. I really enjoy the challenge of stardom, people asking me for autographs and having the paparazzi chase me around.

Summary: love the game and know lots of people who also love it.
