Game = Pathetic and pointless
People who play it = people who like crap games
This deal with Fox = another reality TV piece of sh!t?

I mean camon!!!
TV was great in the 80's oh you heard it right, give me back A-Team, McGuyver, Captain Planet, Transformers and everythign else then because it was excellent, now TV is littered with stuff like Big Brother and other crap like that, damn producers to hell! :mad:

This game must die, along with Fox, EA, and Will Wright

What the heck is wrong with you all. Can you, for just one second, get rid of your freakin' pick up a gun, run around and kill someone mentallity. Yeah, the best selling game ever is a load of crap.... I mean how do you get off saying that.

Yeah a tv show is overkill, but the game is awesome, but it seems none of you have ever really sat down and played. Ever made your own objects, floors, wallpapers, clothing.

Nevermind, I know this won't matter, It wont even get through. I feel like I'm trying to talk to a stump.

ok, the sims was fun for a while.. then the 1st expansion was cool. new stuff to build/buy ok, understandable... then they began to bush this game way too much. unleashed is pointless. every other game between the first expansion and TSO are overkill.

Congrats to wright for his success, but do we really need to have all this sh*t? pets are fun, i suppose, and new lots are cool new places to walk around in are prolly fun. but i think 50 lots is a bit much. will anyone ever really try 2 develop all 50? who has that kind of time, and why arnt they capping bases for the NC instead?

ok, im done for now. </rant>

Arent thre like, 10 sims expansions? okay, 50+50+50+50+50+50+50+50+50+50+50 for TSO+ 10 a month fee (I guess thats how much it is) + 700 for repairs cuz you punched the monitor cuz the "Toby" family all died in a mysterious fire ingame = A shitload of money wasted!

I hear there is a sequel coming out wherein the sims don't look like they were rendered by a playstation.

Good god that article can't be true! The sims is getting realy old. I bet the show won't last long.

the sims is a pretty retarded game I must admit. The idea is perfect though. It has a very wide target audience. A lot of girls play it, A HUGE amount of gay people play it, and lots of adults who have never played a video game in there life. That group has never been touched by video games and The sims has them all.

From what I got from the sims is that is is a way for people with shitty lives to live a life where there is NO WAY to fail. You always succeed.

The creator of the sims is just a business man, he wants to make money and thats it. The sims is his product and he's becoming a rich mother fucker off of it. I wouldn't care if I were the CEO of the biggest Dildo company on the face of the earth because I would be roling in cash.

When me and 7 friends of mine tried to play TSO we couldn't stand it! People were too polite, there was nothing fun about the game at all. It was just make a chalkboard sell it and repeat a couple hundred times then go buy a fountian YAY now go do it all over again. Well we slowly started falling like flies and in the end our accounts all got baned. Mostly cuz we'd harass the people that started gay night clubs and stuff:D

he is right, my ex-girlfriend played the hell out of the sims.... the fact that it was called a video game was about the only thing we had in common :D


look if your life is that pathetic that you have to play "life" on a computer, well the sims ain't your asnwer....

I will admit that being able to design your house is fucking cool, but that it. if I want to eat, sleep, get a job, bitch slap my wife, run off with the neighbors kids I'll do it in real life thank you very much..

Its sad, the only reason half my friends even got the sims was them having the opprotuinity to make two girls kiss eachother
It is pretty interesting, but pathectic non the less

My friend got the sims. I remember we demolished all of the houses, made cubicals and put women in them(with phones of course), built our house, and proceeded to pimp hoes all day long.

Oh, we also built a wall around some chicks husband, and started setting off fireworks in there. He didn't stand a chance.

SIMing a war in some far flung planet is one thing....



SIMing your life here is something quite different. Almost disturbing. I think that this is another sign of the Apocalypse. We have three more signs to go....

1) Squeeks grows some facial hair.

2) PSU goes down....again.

3) The Cubs are still in 1st place after the All-Star game.

Are we safe? You make the call.

That'd be funny if you could get one Sim to go insane and kill all the other sims.
