    The sims has got to be the best game eva and adding pets to it has added a whole new dimension, but I do think the graphics and sounds should improve. Overall though its a good buy.

    While it will grab your attention to begin with, "The Sims : Unleashed" isnt as long lasting as its previous expansions. Its a shame that Maxis couldnt leave a good thing alone when it was at its height. If Expansion Packs like this keep on coming than The Sims bubble really will have burst. All that said, dedicated fans on The Sims will no doubt love it. The rest of us wont be quite as impressed. Expand

    I have it my self oh my god it is great. Almost everything is improved from the first one. I also love the new interactions. One word: the sims unleashed is great. Well maybe 5 words.

  1. You owe it to yourself, and your sims, to give them the widest range of human experience currently available.
  2. While The Sims: Unleashed offers plenty of new features, game objects and gameplay changes, it doesn't significantly add pleasure to the game, which is a real disappointment.
  3. Another solid expansion which relies on adding depth and fun rather than tons of goodies.
