Beware. Your Sims have Magic.
In The Sims™ Makin' Magic Expansion Pack*, your Sims can now harness the supernatural, casting spells with playful or mischievous intentions. With a new magical, carnival-themed location, over 175 new items, and a host of quirky new characters, Makin’ Magic is the largest Sims Expansion Pack ever. New gameplay includes making, gathering, and questing for ingredients to brew magic spell recipes. Get help around the house from magical minions, turn pesky neighbors into toads, or make that hard-to-get Sim fall in love with you. But watch out, spells can backfire if you’re not careful. Either way, the neighborhood will never be the same.
*This expansion pack requires the original 'TheSims' game to play.

that's exactly what i meant in my last post. i did not notice the word review. maybe he meant him reviewing over what it says on the back of the box? meh...
Eh?
I have no idea what your last post meant, but I said it looked more like an advert to a review because he called the thread 'makin magic review'. The key word being review.

if it was a review, he'd submit it AS one. not in chat. from the looks of it he's merely letting god knows who, that it's out, and by copying (what sounds like) the back of the game box he's just telling people what they've written about it.....
just because he's a newbie, you all assume the worst...

oh, and goatboy - no offence. it could have easily been THE AOE SLAUGHT or hedfix...

Copying the back of the game box, isn't a review.
This looks more like an advert than a review...
It sucks. It's one of the Sims series for God's sake.
