Its good but...

The game is great and fun but there are a few major flaws. First of all the sound is out of sync with the picture when the sim does something sometimes, second, most of the time in fast forward the sim freezes, causing you to pause and undo the action, third sometimes the sim doesn't respond to certain actions (ex. drinking an espresso) which can be a real hassle, especially if it happens once the carpool arrives, and lastly: story mode! Once you reach the HMS Amore level in story mode, your sims platinum want becomes impossible! "Help Betty marry Nelson" Betty can't marry Nelson because he keeps rejecting her. All in all the game is flawed but fun, especially in freeplay. But I'm pretty sure you can find a better investment of your $10-15.

Great Game!

I not much of a sims fan, but this game is so awesome. You can do many things (almost anything) including getting a job, customizing sims, making a family (of adults though), change locations, making meals, buying items, decorate your house, and much more. My favorite thing in the game is that you can choose to control your sims through the classic controls or direct controls unlike the sims 3. I would totally recommend this to someone.

Excellent Sims game
PostedOctober 28, 2011
The Sims 2 game is very fun. It also is funny. Of course, It's just like a every day life with a house, jobs, bills, and more. You can buy lots of cool stuff and you get to do lots of fun things. This game has a record of never getting me bored. I absolutely LOVE the Sims! The music is great too. You can create a player with awesome personality! Great game.

The Best Sims Game on Console!
PostedJune 21, 2011
The graphics are iffy, but hey, this game is 6 years old. It has its issues, but what doesn't? I absolutely adore this game and I think it's the best out of the Sims 3, Sims 2 Pets, and Sims 2 Castaway on console. It has a pretty cool story mode but I like to play it on 2 player the most. This is definitely worth picking up!
