    Probably more fun than any other game released in the last half of 2002.

    The frustrations are enough to make me wroth enough to wall a Sim up in an exitless building and watch them slowly expire.

    PC users may be disappointed, however, as the core of the game is still essentially the same.

    Anyone thinking of "getting a life" would be well advised to do so in the real world rather than this one. There's nothing wrong with the execution - it's the concept that's so dispiriting.

    Very nice game, but to hard to move them and to dark colours. In conclusion you can play and you wont feel the real time..
