the part 2 of sims for those of you don't know is actually a totally new game built from ground up. check out the game, and it's new graphics and engines. smarter sims, and sims that grow old and take up your genes for generations. the previous ones didn't do that. and as for those sim bathrooms and sim bars? all crap.
Crap, it came out so soon. My daughter has been hounding me to get this but the old series of sims had alot of install problems on my machine. we have 4-5 expansion packs that never got played because it wouldnt recognise the host game no matter what we did.
well then consider those expansions irrelevant because the new sims has a whole new engine. they're almost alive. your daughter will never leave the computer. and if you play, you probably'll get hooked too.
