I have it. It's great, but more addictive than heroin. There is a reason why the last game was the best selling game of all time - you just can't stop playing!

I posted this about the game in another thread:

I really hope my fascination with the game wears off soon because it isn't helping my studying at all. Confused

Damn you Sims 2, damn you!

And yes, you can make your sims have sex, and you can make them grow weed. Mr. Green
If you are concerned about your studies, you better hope you have some strong willpower. If not, don't start playing. images/smilies/lol.gif

I never really like the first Sims to be honest. It had some interesting things, but in order to play it, you need at least 3 hours of time and I never have that much time even if I seriously wanted to play it. Sims 2 should be better than the first one, but Im not going to rush out to the stores to get my copy.

If you are weak minded then there's this weird thing called willpower that you are missing. If this is the case, then you probably smoke, drink excessively and if you start playing The Sims 2, you WILL become addicted.

If however, your mind is strong enough, then Sims 2 is an awesome game that you'll keep coming back to (if you have the time).

This is in no way related to the Sims 2 specifically, but I've heard that http://www.suprnova.org is a great site for all your torrent needs.

It is a ridiculously large game. In the past, I have outright refused to install games such as Unreal Tournament 2004, FarCry etc. based on their stupidly large file sizes. I couldn't resist the Sims though... I almost saw it as an improvment. 2.7gigs is smaller than having the original Sims and all of it's add-ons installed. images/smilies/tongue.gif

I remember freaking out over Microsoft Flight Simulator 95 because it was over 200MB. Heck, one of my first computers was an Amiga 500 which had no hard drive at all. images/smilies/eek.gif images/smilies/lol.gif
