YES. That is right the highest selling pc game ever is moving. Its been on pc and comming to the ps2. So what is left? Yes if you guessed GameCube then you guessed right! The Sims are coming to Invade the GameCube!

The game is going to be released in the spring so that leaves a few months to when the actually release date is but I am guessing it should be around when The Ledgend Of Zelda: The Wind Waker.

The Sims will feature a new mode called "Get A Life". This lets you just get to expireance the big moments of in life, like getting a job , having a family.

This game will be n ot just 1 player but there is a 2 player options to go head to head with building up your charictors life or a co-operative mode in 2 player and this will let you both control the family you are creating.

The sims are great on the pc and are just coming out on the ps2 and soon the GameCube.

thats only because it has about 6 expansions which are £20 each except one which is £50

VC toped the amount sold by miles. the sims is basically a series of games. so if you added up all the gta's "bang" at least 2 times the money

It's not the best.
Best selling doesn't equal best game.

It attracts non-gamers because it appeals to their voyeuristic nature.

Ah yes but you say it works on ever ones pc but i got news for you! It don't work on my pc! It isn't just for preteen and non-gaming adults. It is for every age above however old you have to be to beable to use a pc.
It may be tedious and boaring to you but to the billions of people who have baught it it isn't! And plus the cheapest you will find the sims is at £20 in whoolweths!

It's the highest selling PC game because it costs £10, because it works on everyone's PC, because it attracts both preteens and non-gaming adults, and because it is simple as intuitive.
But it is also incredibly tedious and boring.
