The Sims 2
Review by Komania
"Woah! Not what I expected!"
I got this game along with my DS for Christmas, it's been already 2 weeks, and I'm still playing it, I think that this game is underrated and needs to be congratulated and admired for it's amazing gameplay.
Graphics 10/10:
They may be kinda pixel-ish, but still amazing for a DS. Yes it's no Xbox 360 or PS3 graphics, it's in full 3-D. It has good details and you have more freedom in Create-a-sim, before all you could do was change the color of clothes and the color of hair, now you get to change the type of hair, the skin color, the facial features, the type of clothes and pants and even chose your PJs and bathing suits.
Audio 9/10:
I hate how people slam the sound making it seem like the music is crap, trust me, the music suits the area. There is rock, metal, techno and lots of other music. As for SFX incredible, amazing footstep sounds, great simish and even a mini piano build into the game :P.
Gameplay 10/10:
This is where the game shines, you manage and own a hotel, building more rooms, trying to make money and customizing the rooms with furniture, there are tons of things to buy and lots to do in the small town. And people will give you missions that you can do. In some of them you become the Rattinator and fight goons or robots, you might need to extinguish a fire with your Super Drencher or maybe just go get an item.
To get your relationship up with people you must either Impress, Calm down, Romance (opposite gender), Restrain or Cheer up other sims by waiting for them to do a movement, then you press one of three buttons on the touch screen that matches theirs. Ex: They put their hand in the air, you push "High five". There are also mini-games to do, did I mention that when you buy an art gallery you can draw picture that people can buy? Or how you can play a show on a piano or record your voice at a lounge?
Overall 10/10
If you want to have A LOT of fun, buy this game.
