Oh don’t we all like to play God with our little animated Sims? I bet you’ve all starved and drowned them, haven’t you? Of course you have, get the most out of the game, that’s the way.
The Sims was a classic game when it first came out, it really was. Although as the days past and the pizza boxes grew in size it began to get boring didn’t it? In a last ditch attempt to amuse myself I made a large pyramid on one of the house plots; it looked really nice in the big view. Eventually I gave up, the most amusing thing left to do was to put new wallpaper up, riveting.
And people who made The Sims, whoever they were knew this. So extra packs came thick and fast full of wonderful new things. We had that ‘hot date’ one where you could chat up some pixels or forget all your troubles and go doooowwwwntown. That one was okay as you got to explore around the seafront but eventually got boring. Then there was the ones with pets… oh how great eh? Oh look I have a virtual dog… emmm now what? And the one they went on holiday… you should save up the money you wasted and go on a nice little trip to South of Spain and drink some Sangria.
Now I can see this happening forever and ever. I bet they made up a chart that comes and goes in waves. After every new release people find it exciting and the wave goes up then it falls again. So to help The Sims people make more money I think I’ll make some suggestions of my own for future games:
Sim Ill
-------
Yes that’s right luv, you too can now control you’re very own infected Sim. As you’re little peep waddles around the house sneezing and coughing you can have great fun making Lemsip and some nice soup. Have fun as you watch the Sim stay in bed all day with the curtains closed and try and accurately place basins for projectile vomiting. This game includes 22 injuries and illnesses including influenza, kidney stones, explosive diarrhoea and chicken pox. As well as many unique dressing gowns, furry slippers and various health remedies. Just make sure you don’t catch anything yourself.
Sim Drunk
---------
It does exactly what it says on the tin. The game’s meant to replicate real life right? Everybody gets drunk, well nearly, if not you’re missing out. Anyway the main addition is the building of public house just down the road where you can meet up with the neighbours. Have a few pints, play some darts or snooker and have fight with that upper class boot in the red dress. The try and master the control of the drunkard Sim as he twists and turns up the road. You want him to go to bed; they have some other ideas and instead makes some chips or falls asleep on the table. Of course this can take place at home too, invite some friends round and have a few. This game includes many drunken moments as waking up in a ditch, hangovers and sleeping with the neighbour’s wife as well as a wide variety of alcohol. Remember kids, it’s not big and it’s not clever.
Sim Profession
--------------
We all know the Sims go off to work to make a living from 9-5 but that time is wasted in the game. Instead this game involves you going to you’re work and deal with the problems that arrive. From making tea for the boss to rescuing a cat from a tree, making that game a bit more fun. Of course more professions will need to be added ranging from a top porn star to the local binman. Work your way up the job ladder and you could be the next David Brent. This game includes 28 different jobs as well as the bonus of the unemployed; enjoy going to collect your dole money. However, this is not a case of ALL work and NO play, quite the opposite. Ho Ho
Sim Gutter
----------
You’ve been made bankrupt and been forced to sleep on the streets. You need to build up your begging skills over time and try to stay alive. Things may improve, some kind person may throw you a mobile phone and finally you can buy your own little flat in Simville. This game includes a variety of money making techniques as dancing for cash to medical testing as well as unique tramp clothing and beard. Just remember kids; this is no laughing matter, next time throw a quid at that poor sole in the street.
See? I can entertain you for hours. It’s all up here *taps heads* and there’s a lot more from where they came from. Imagine your very own Sim Garden… the challenge is too keep that grass means and you could win the Sim Garden Award. You know it’s all there, just get those willing Gods to buy my games.
Coming Soon – Sim Sim

You control the person controlling their own Sim.

Don't blame Maxis, blame EA they are the ones who keep marketing these bloody add-on packs, and are responsible for the cancellation of the quite good looking simsville. EA also own Maxis, and are sure milking the company for it's got when it comes to the sims.

OKay, joint rulership, with you ruling more. Meka rules more than anyone on the GAD front though.
I think maxis produced a good game and are milking it for all its worth. My sister got the first and thought it was great, and bough an add on disc which contained pretty much funk all, a few new outfits and some different wallpapers.
Its selling the game out completely and its a shame because the original was a good and original game.
Maxis, are total sellouts. (Wow that was blunt)
I think the Sims does allow girls to get into computer games aswell, but It wasnt designed solely for that. Maxis have taken the add-ons too at though and made me sick of the game. Sellouts!
