The Sims

[heavenleigh2001]

I'm strongly thinking about getting Sims 2 after AP exams and I was wondering which expansion pack to get (my friend will lend me her Sims 2 to install, and then I will just use the expansion pack to play). I'm trying to decide between University or Open For Business. Any advice?

I don't like University that much. Its not as fun as I thought it would be. I really do like playing Open for Buisness. If you are going to get Open for Buisness. You should also get Nightlife. That way you can more options of what kind of buisness you want.

I've got just Nightlife and it's a lot of fun. I do kind of miss the fact that I don't have young adults, though.

[laconicchick]

Oh yeah, the young adult stage is a nice benefit of University.

I don't have OFB (yet), so I can't say - but I love Nightlife and hate University. Who the hell wants to watch their Sims study, go to class and write tests? Too much like my real (boring) life, so: zzzzzzzzzzzz!

Spike has a new episode of Playing With Dolls up, which makes me way too happy.

So, I finally got regular old expansionless Sims 2 (barely used copy from a friend) and it'll have to be good enough because I just remembered that I really suck. I made one family that seems to be working now: the husband is in the slacker career track, works nights, and cheats on his wife all day, and the wife is the main breadwinner in the athletics track. It's easier to create these little soap operas in this game than the prequel.

One of my sims has a weird blue glow around him that won't go away. It appeared after he drank some Elixir of Life. How will it go away?

I was wondering about that blue glow, too.

I can't make families, or even two-person households. I just can't handle it. I always stick with one Sim. One of my Sims started a lesbian relationship and wanted to marry her girlfriend. I let them get married because hey, that's the way it should be, but I quickly abandoned them because it was too much for me to manage more than one Sim. Now I feel guilty.

On the Sims 2 homepage they had a survery about OFB, and what next expansion pack would we like to play. They had some really good ideas. You can find it at here.


I really want my sims to be able to go on a vacation next. Or to have pets again.

I love to use the "boolprop testingcheatsenabled true" cheat. It's my favorate, because it lets you do all kind of things. This web site here will tell you all the things you can do with the cheat. This website has many pretty garments.

ETA:I made it blue and linky!
