But it is WooHooing. Sure, it may look like sex, a lot, but really, it's just some innocent WooHooing.

Tired of ads?

I saw the game at the shops, and I was like "WooHoo"!
Then my girlfriend saw it, and she was like "WooHoo"!
So I got it for her and we went home and WooHooed.


WooHoo!

Uh oh.

I have a sim who was at 8 in cooking and got +3 in cooking through a career event. Now he can't cook at all. I'm thinking the skill somehow "flipped over" when it went over 10 and is now stuck at 0 or 1 or -256 or something. He can't cook *anything*.

Edit: I checked the Sims 2 official BBS, it's a known problem, but no fix as yet. So heed my warning, if you have a skill near to the max, ignore events to the best of your abilities lest they go over 10 and you end up with the skill useless beyond repair.

Since you have a girlfriend to woohoo with you might not need the full range of pleasures some others are apparently experiencing with the game.

Support Apolyton, buy Civilization III: Complete

is there a nude patch yet? what do the nude graphics look like.

not that this should influence me on buying the game, but I like to know these things beforehand .

I would prefer not to pay full price. I may wait until a reduction in price before buying. I only played the first game for about a week before I got bored of it. So I'm wary of shelling out 50 bucks. This game looks more involved than the first though. The original really didn't have much to do. I'd imagine the add-ons greatly increased gameplay- but you had to pay for those...

Yes, there's a "nude" patch, and it doesn't do anything aside from get rid of the blurring.

There's no "bits and pieces" modeled in the game...

actually I don't even know why I asked that. I never downloaded the nude patch for the sims first game. It didn't seem worth the trouble. The graphics weren't good enough to get excited about.

I should point out that my previous post was just an excuse to use "WooHoo" as many times as possible in the one passage. I took certain liberties with facts.

I don't have Sims 2 yet.

Well some might say I am a little biased ( ) and I haven't played Sims2, but my thought is if you didn't like the first game you probably wont like this game.

Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

What I'd like to know is:

the add-ons for the first game added lots of functionalities and features, such as a neighborhood and lots of different scenarios and environments. Does this second installment have all these things or is it just "The Sims 1" with 3D graphics?

(Not that this would make me buy the game, I'm just curious)

Not all, but some of it, like you're able to go downtown, but not on vacation...


I just got a visit of two pink rabbits... two of the people in my house has been very low in social for some days, then all of the sudden two pink rabbits came down from the sky, to keep them company (one to each sim)
One of the sims started talking, and thereby quickly got the rabbit to go away again, but the other sim kinda started the opposite... she started fighting with the rabbit instead
Looks funny from the other sims perspective, since they can't see the rabbit (when you got other sims selected)

I guessed that would be the case, but figured it couldn't hurt to ask if anyone had heard anything to the contrary.
