The Sims 2 is the BEST video game franchise, ever. EVER. Sims 3 looks too ugly for me though. Anyway, I love the Sims 2. I put it on my new laptop and it worked like a charm (it went blue screen on me twice but I think my laptop overheated so it didn't damage anything, I uninstalled and re-installed the Sims 2 and I don't have the blue screen error anymore). I got The Sims 2 University and the features are AWESOME, but my laptop couldn't really handle it all, haha, so I had to uninstall it but as I played it for about a week before taking it off and just playing the base game I was pretty impressed. When I get a new desktop I'll put University on it and own it :)
I love the Sims2 so this was just another opportunity to get my sims out of the house. I love the fact that they turn into young adults when they go to college. I like all of the fun new outfits and furniture. The fact that I cant move a sim into the same dorm as one of my roommates sims without having to play both sims is frustrating. I just have to make sure that all my sims are in dorms together and try not to mix things up too much. This expansion pack is cool also because your college sim can invite their family and friends from "home" to come to their cool college town to visit and go out. It also seems like the young adult sim learns things faster in college and doesnt lose so much from their fun meter while studying, which is GREAT!
I liked everything about this product. No complaints. I bought the Sims University two or three weeks ago and was immediately impressed with the number of features available on this game. It has a great picture and on the cd was little to no damages. The Sims game is perfect for people who are in college and also love sims. Cheap price and a great deal!
Well, I'd hoped the University would be able to have more crossover possibilities with the regular neighborhoods. Apparently only Young Adults and Adults are able to access University areas, there's no possibility for families to grow or even visit from the main neighborhood. Additionally, I'd really hoped that Young Adults could exist in the regular neighborhood either by leaving early or even having the option of growing up the rest of the way. I'm still giving four stars for this excellent expansion, because it does provide a lot more options and possibilities. I only dock it because I had hoped for a bit more.
This is the first expansion pack for the awesome Sims 2. Your teen sims have the option of going to the University where they will live, obtain skills, and go to classes to get a degree they will use in order to advance or get new career paths. The new careers, items, and social skills are pretty cool, but the play at the dorm rooms and around the university aren't that interesting after a while. Graduation is a big disappointment. I found myself using the cheat to get the new jobs instead of having my sims go to college. If you want the new objects, buy the game. If you just want to see what it's like in college, get the game, but don't expect much.
