Re: Sims 2

the other way is to go the slightly silly route: my current favourite characters include Mastodon & Halibut O'Frenzy, and Bunty Cakehole and Hercules Lard. These are people who could possibly exist if we allowed them to...

theming in families is also a good idea, hence Ulysses, Agamemnon and Caligula Fruitbat, with their siblings Charity, Chastity, Faith, Hope and Vanity.

maybe i just eat too much cheese too late at night.

Re: Sims 2

I don't have much experience when it comes to the Sims games. I am assuming that the Sims 2 game isn't the online version, right?


Has anyone tried out the online Sims? Is it any good?

Nope. But it's a good game

The Sims online didn't seduce that much players, Electronic Arts is in total denial of the game when it comes to talk about it to the press.

Ivy, your daughter is a nasty one.

*L* It sounds like Sims has replaced the Barbie make-believe society for some girls. I remember my sisters putting their famous blonde dolls in situations that, to me, bordered on insanity.

Re: Sims 2

Is Sims2 on X Box a lot better than the PC version?

Re: Sims 2

Title doesn't exist on XBox. Are you talking about the Urbz ?

Re: Sims 2

Check there : http://www.eagames.com/redesign/games/xbox/home.jsp and here : http://www.eagames.com/redesign/game.../sims/home.jsp
Electronic arts don't provide SIMS 2 on Xbox. Although there's some old Sims on XBox (more recent of course than the original SIMS and with some innovations which ended in SIMS 2) and the equivalent of Sims 2, the URBZ.

Now, someone may have done a bootleg copy of Sims2 for Xbox but it this case it comes directly from the PC game, hence no better nor worse than it.

True, Sims 2 hasn't been ported to the Xbox yet. There is, in addition to The Sims and URBZ, a sequel-like game exists on called Sims: Bustin' Out.

Considering how many Sims titles have made their way onto the Xbox, there is a possibility that the game will also show up on the system. Not being a Xbox owner or a Sims fan, I guess I am out of the loop, anyway.

Re: Sims 2

I'm confused, I'll have to check with Blockbusters again because I had a Sims2 in my hand last weekend that I could hire from them and I'm sure it was XBox


It said Sims2 on the box, so is that another version, not the same as Sims2 on PC?

Now it's clearer. That must be a tag used by Blockbusters as a marketing trick to sell Urbz. No, it isn't the equivalent of the Sims 2, it's a different game which take place downtown, rather than in the suburbs usual for the SIMS. Check some specialized website as GameSpy.com to have an opinion on them.

Now I get it I could always hire the game and see what it is like, even if it's a totally different version. It could be good for a change
