One of the most succesful games of all time, one of the modern classics, and also the best, most innovative gameplay, that is still being unsuccessfully imitated (Singles, etc.). Breaking it Down: Gameplay: It was unique when it came about, but also it was very well done. The game sold this much, and is still selling, because of this aspect of the game. We all know it, so I won't explain it in detail. Basically, you pick a sim or a whole family of Sims, build a house or buy a house, decorate the interior, and move your Sims in. It might not sound like much, but the depth that this game has is unbelievable. The jobs, the furniture options, the random events like fire and bulgrary, the family friends...it is detailed!! Graphics: They are gettiing on in age. Pick up The Sims 2 if you are looking for eye candy. Still, they are good enough to not get in the way of the gameplay, so it isn't that big a deal. The animations are done very well, and are funny only when they are meant to be funny. The fact is, the graphics should be something that you shouldn't worry about that much. Sound: Same goes for this. The background music is good and goes with the mood of the whole game. It definetly helps get you really concentrated on the game. The gibberish that the sims make can get annoying though. Value: People are still playing this in extended periods of time. Even if you do quit playing for a while, you will keep coming back to it for the sole reason that it is so fun. I think that this game or its expansion packs can be the best investment gaming-wise for anyone out there. Tilt: The game is stable, fun, and also very easy to begin playing. There is a lengthy manual, which is a fun read. I found myself coming back to this game over and over again (that is, until I bought the Sims2). I recommend this.
