I haven't played The Sims 2 yet, but my concern is that Maxis updated the original game but left out too many of the features of the expansion packs. For example, there is no vacation area, no pets, none of the Superstar features, no magic, and so on. They also left out some of the jobs from Livin' Large and Unleashed. This means that if you have most or all of the expansion in The Sims, upgrading to The Sims 2 will take away most of them. Maybe it will be better when more expansions come out for the sequel, but until them, it seems almost like taking a step back.

Wow, you got twins and aliens after only playing for a few days? I've been playing for several months, and I haven't gotten either! wow...

Oh by the way, don't worry, this obsession should wear off in a few months, and playing 10 straight hours is nothing. It's when you start playing 48 hours straight that you need to be worried...;)

lol!

actually im annoyed. I deleted the old families because i tend to get annoyed with the old story lines, but i didnt realise you could transfer the families to a new neighborhood :doh: . Ah well to try again.

My sister told me knowing my luck i'll end up with alien triplets :eek: . It is my intention to get a good mixture of alien/human families. I deleted the old neighborhoods and came up with my own storyline similar to strange town. I call it Area 66.

MwuhahahahahaHAAAAA!!

:sorry: ... :wave:


(unfortunatly i have no time to play for 48 hours, my college work suffers enough ^_^ ).
