The second expansion pack for The Sims 2, entitled Nightlife, has arrived. One thing is for sure, we can always count on Maxis and EA to add new content to The Sims franchise with it's multitude of expansion packs. This new expansion pack adds cars and a chemisty level, but adds a couple of bugs that were non-existant in other iterations. First off, it is definately cool to take your Sims out on the town. Going to clubs, bowling alleys, lounges, restaurants, etc. is just plain fun. Every location has it's own look and feel, it's own style. I can name 2 things right now that make this expansion worth while for me : karaoke and being able to DJ at a club. There is tons of new content in here, and being able to take your Sims on dates and outings is a tremendous idea. It ends up being a whole lot of fun to see them in action, especially when they are doing the Smustle. The cars are a cool little addon, but they don't really save time that much, even for the carpooling. What I didn't like about this expansion is that Sims seem to "forget" what they have to do. You queue up an action and it just dissapears. You queue it again, it dissapears again. This can get really frustrating and I had not noticed this bug in the original game and University. Another thing that I've noticed is that when you do an outing with your group of friends, they tend to wander off and do other stuff, making you have to call them back to you. It's not a big deal, but it can get tedious when you are trying to coordinate a "Super" outing. All in all, The Sims 2 Nightlife is a good expansion of the original game, although it has a couple of annoying bugs. It is great fun for any Sims fan.
