The Urbz: Sims in the City, is a genuinly good game. The Good: Good graphics, there are not as many polygons that it had in the previous installments of The Sims series. There are creative styles that you can choose from, and getting the money actually gets you to participate in the job, when in the other sims installments you just watched your character drive away. There are lots of people you can meet, and either start a friendship, defeat, or just, you know, get them pissed off. Value is good, because the game doesn't have a time limit, but once you get to the "superstar" rep, it kind of gets boring. The Bad: There are insanely long load times, whether its just changing into an item, or going to a new area. There are very few choices for clothing for either gender, and sometimes when you are doing moves like breakdancing or fighting, it slows down and you can see that they are not even touching! ( Especially with Fight ). The Urbz: Sims in the City is a good game with flaws, but it offers a totally different experience, and if you like focusing on popularity and reputation, this is the game for you.
