Pros: fun, addictive, never ending game!
Cons: none
The thought of being able to completely control someone, other than yourself is pretty cool. That is what pulled me into this game.
Basically with this game you create characters, families, and their homes, and live their lives for them....

Pros: Great Idea, Extremely Fun
Cons: Addictive, Your Own Social Skills Might Go Down:)
This is the most novel and mundane game out there, and it is highly addictive. You basically get to play God with your little family and neighborhood of Sims. Controlling all their actions (eating, bathing, sleeping, and even trips to the Throne!) as...

Pros: Everything! Fun, captivating, thought provoking (if you want it to be), you get to be a god-like figure
Cons: You can play for hours on end and not notice the time at all!!
After Electronic Arts (EA) bought Maxis, I feared the SIM empire was dead. I couldn't be further from the truth. EA and Maxis churned out a great idea. An idea so simple it takes a genius to realize it! A Sim Family! You start the game with a Maxis...

Pros: can create new scenarios daily
Cons: very addictive!
Though the Sims was above my price range for computer games, I decided to purchase this game as soon as I saw it at the store. My best friend had told me about it and I wondered how she could get addicted to what I thought was a kid's game. The more...

Pros: Great Game, very addictive
Cons: Too addictive
The Sims is a highly addictive game which blends virtual reality with reality. After a while of playing the game I was thinking about how I could get my little "creatures" more friends, a better job, or more money. This game sucked me in from...

If your hesitating to buy this game, let me put your fears to rest. After all they're only keeping you from all the fun. This is one simply addictive game that you don't want to miss.
Sim games are all pretty much the same. We've all played...

Pros: Good graphics, fun, addictive gameplay, downloadable accessories off of the Internet.
Cons: The gibberish becomes annoying.
As it says in the title, The Sims is an everyday simulation of life. It has only a couple flaws that can be easily overlooked and tons of great features that uh, shouldn't! Maxis has done a great job of implementing everyday life into this game, and has...

Pros: Fun, versatile, great game!
Cons: none!
Anyone who has played and enjoyed any of the other Sim games from Maxis/Electronic Arts will enjoy this game.
You control people's daily activities, help them train for their careers, clean up after themselves, and many other things.

Pros: Addictive, multi-faceted, layered gameplay
Cons: Slow to load, save, exit, and install
Having been a Sim Junkie since the early days of a 2-D SimCity, there was no way I was going to miss the latest offering from the mad designers at Maxis. After all, romance? Death? Intrigue? The Sims purportedly had it all, and the second I could...

Pros: Awesome life simulation! And the gibberish talking is hilarious! Incredible realism in relationships, too!!! Plus, a great help system.
Cons: Tiny control flaws, like problems with agendas or free will.
When Maxis produced this game, they took a big gamble. After all, who would want to control one household when they could control a city or army or planet? Most everyone, that's who! The gamble paid off and sold big, and for a reason: THE SIMS IS THE...
