Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

The Sims 2 is an incredible game! The PC version, that is. But the Playstation 2 version? Guess what? This is NOT the Sims2. No matter what the title may be, this is an unbelievable farce. Let me tell you this for a fact; Sims 2 on PS2 is complete rubbish. There have been plenty of products that I have ridiculed on Amazon but I have always been aware that they are only my opinions and everyone has different tastes. But I want anyone who is considering this game to know that what I am telling you about it is not an opinion.It is a straight fact.This game is... (a word Amazon will probably block, that starts with c and ends with p and has 4 letters) It is nothing like the real Sims 2, and it is less interesting than any other SIms game ever. The Create A Sim area involves a few small drawings of tops, skirts and pants.Apparently you can be a fashion designer!Oh sure, long sleeves or short sleeves?Collar up or collar down?How exciting. The body and face maker is lesser than even the first Sims, you won't be able to see what you are doing anyway and no matter how you "morph" them, they stay looking the same.Plus, they don't even look real.They are ugly. Story mode?Forget it. How fun it is to fulfill your sims needs that include Take A Shower. (Not!) All while your ridiculous looking sim runs around like a lunatic as the useless creation that it is. Free play mode?What the hell?? The SIms 2 is supposed to be about creating family trees.They can not even have children!!! There are about 2 familes (but they aren't really families, there are no actual families) and there's space for you to create two more lots of roommates. The build mode looked like a migrainne, while the buy mode was absolutely pathetic, with teensy child-like drawings.Very few too. Thsi game is expensive but reeks of amateurishness. You will have more fun with a 2 dollar toy. (And please note that this review is coming from an extreme Sims fan) Maxis needs to aplogize to anyone who waited for The Sims 2 to come to console, and anyone who spent money for or recieved this ghastly piece of cow dung. I have really really liked the Maxis gang for a while, very grateful for what they have done with the original Sims 2. But now, Maxis, you owe us. Big time. To start with, can I have my money back? It baffles me why they have made such an honestly horrible game.Do not buy it! If you have been dying to play the Sims 2, I suggest the computer game.I know it has steep system requirements but I managed to purchase a new computer and I don't have much money.SO it can be done, if you want the (real) SIms 2 as badly as I did. The computer game is truly fantastic but the console version is a nightmare created in the bowels of Hell.
