GameZone | The Sims 2 Review

by The Bearer

Bigger, badder, and better than ever, The Sims are back to drain any last vestiges of free time you may have had, and some you didn't, with The Sims 2.

How do you follow up to arguably the most popular and most accessible game of all time? You create the Sims 2. The move to 3-D, with a few additions to the massive catalogue of items you can purchase in the game, would have probably been enough to satisfy fans of The Sims. But Maxis and EA refused to rest on their laurels, refining and improving all that we loved, fixing what we didn't, and adding enough new aspects to the game to make it feel new, while maintaining that Sim charm. Take away all of the hype, hyperbole, and this game's celebrated lineage, you are still left with what can only be considered a masterpiece of gaming.

Maxis and EA have lovingly taken everything that people loved about the first game and made it better. They've also taken great pains to fix the things some did not like and most importantly of all, they've added enough new wrinkles and content to make it not only its own game, but also a worthy successor to the best selling PC game of all time. If you loved, or even just liked the first Sims, run, don't walk, and get this game. For the small minority that haven't allowed themselves the pleasure of playing this game's predecessor, I dare you to give this one a chance and you'll no doubt see what the craze is all about.
