legameboy Posted September 16, 2004 Posted September 16, 2004 Huzzah! The sequal to one of the most unique, humorous, and revolutionary games is here! All hail The Sims 2! Now, all of you who are busy playing, get off for a second and rant about it!
Mike Windu Posted September 16, 2004 Posted September 16, 2004 I wish I had a good enough computer for it. And battlefront And Rome total war.
Sam Fisher Posted September 16, 2004 Posted September 16, 2004 The sims seems a little..stupid to me when the first came out.. nothings changed :/
TiE23 Posted September 16, 2004 Posted September 16, 2004 I got it yesterday (Opening day) I would give it a solid 9 out of 10. Its like the addiction all over again. And don't be fooled by the console version Sims, this is alot different. The Sims console was just the Sims in 3d, Sims 2 is a lot better. If you liked the first one and got addicted to it, get it, if you hated it, don't get it! The only reason Im not playing it right now, is because my brother and sister are playing it Meh Oh, and you are going to have a medium-high rig. At least a ATI 9600 XT or a FX 5600 But it uses a special technology, unless your moving the camera, it will only render the characters and moving objects, and will give you a silky smooth 40-50 fps (When moving, 20-25 fps) Oh, the animations are so F*CKING GOOD! It blows away anything you thought it would be like. ***Warning*** If your parents don't like you seeing two Sims making out and rubbing eachothers asses when on the couch, watch out. But if you like making the sims do perverted stuff, and watching two animated people do the "WooHoo" *looks at Insanesith* Go ahead PS: The insanity inducing music is gone, and has a more upbeat pop music soundtrack instead of a violin & piano song. Better custom soundtrack support, movie maker, story maker, better picture taking.... the list goes on and on TiE
Tyrion Posted September 16, 2004 Posted September 16, 2004 Evil Genius>Sims 2 Why have control over a family, when you can have control over the world?
IG-64 Posted September 17, 2004 Posted September 17, 2004 It rox, I finally have something to do ^_^ I just played it for like, 5 hours
Mex Posted September 17, 2004 Posted September 17, 2004 I got no money. So I won't be getting The Sims 2 any time soon.
Crow_Nest Posted September 17, 2004 Posted September 17, 2004 yeah me wont be getting Sims 2 either, but my cousin is cause hes a sims fan. I'd rather get Half Life 2.
CapNColostomy Posted September 17, 2004 Posted September 17, 2004 I'll be getting it for sure. Can you still add your own mp3's? Nothings better than watching Sims dance in cages and on a floor with lights in it to Goatwhore. Well, okay lots of things are better than that, but that's still pretty good.
El Sitherino Posted September 17, 2004 Posted September 17, 2004 *stabs tie* I want this game bad, but not because of the animated mini-people sex. I wanna watch mini-people grow old and die, being in total control of their lives >:] I hate the idea of pop music in it though. I'll probably just turn off the music and listen to my own stuff.
Crow_Nest Posted September 17, 2004 Posted September 17, 2004 I went to teh store just now, saw the DVD edition. But requires an 8x DVD drive. Anyway, i wasnt interested. I can tell you The Sims 2 will be obsolete once Half Life 2 and Halo 2 releases
El Sitherino Posted September 17, 2004 Posted September 17, 2004 Originally posted by |GG|Crow_Nest I can tell you The Sims 2 will be obsolete once Half Life 2 and Halo 2 releases uhmm... what? The sims is a simulation game, HL2 and Halo 2 are FPS', they're totally incomparable. To do so is, as I believe, grounds for a face beating with a wiffle bat.
Crow_Nest Posted September 17, 2004 Posted September 17, 2004 Im not comparing that. I mean The Sims 2 is also one of the most antipated games, and is a sequel to the best game of all time years ago (The sims was more popular than HL last time i think) But Halo 2 and HL2 were more antipated and most ppl are into it. Thats why i think HL2 and Halo 2 and will sell more when it comes out.

At any rate, I couldn't give a rats ass about either of those, even though I play alot of FPS's. I'm getting Sims 2.
Doomie Posted September 17, 2004 Posted September 17, 2004 I think it's stupid to play something that emulates life. I mean, you can do some stuff that you can't do in real life, but generally, the fun was gone after a few hours tops for me... Guess it's a matter of taste.

Don't base your gaming off how well it does in stores and the massive anticipation it recieves. C'mon now boy! You're just digging yourself a bigger hole! *takes IS's advice and pulls out wiffle bat and begins slapping it against the palm of hand*

I was checking out the settings earlier today, and menu music is changable to your specification TiE

Doomie Posted September 17, 2004 Posted September 17, 2004 Ever thought of changing your name to Cap'n Irony? EDIT: woops, that's supposed to be Cap'n Sarcasm. Gimme a break here will ya? It's special for kids my age to be able to write this well in english where i come from. well, not really, actually. but screw that.

I never thought you were a Sim kind of guy. Of course, I also get your personality and Kain's personality mixed up. Oh, I'm getting the Sims 2 today!

I didnt say it sucks or anything, i know its a good game since the first one was great so i think the 2nd one should be better too. I'm just not interested in it.

Yeah but Halo 2 and Half Life 2 will give you a rush and a sense of survival mode while the Sims 2 is just strategizing on how they live their lives, long or short, your in control, YOUR GOD!
