    The Sims: Livin' Large is a great first expansion to The Sims, and I can't think that I could ever play The Sims 1 without it. The expansion feels a lot like Maxis testing the water, and most of the content are flashy Las Vegas, and medieval decorations and furniture, but it definitely is not a stuff pack.

The biggest reason to buy this expansion is probably the fact that it adds a second Sim Lane, with some pre-made houses and the surprisingly memorable Mashuga family. The game also adds six blank worlds for you to populate with your own creations.

    The game really lives up to it's title; everything is about Livin' Large! You have slot machines, garish, tasteless house decorations, golden statues in underpants, crystal balls, and even a creepy Tragic Clown that won't leave you alone.

    This expansion is a blatantly absurd, and entertaining addition to the already great original Sims.    … Expand

    Until Maxis lets us create our own material possessions with the click of the mouse, this is the closest you'll get.

    A nice, though hardly necessary, expansion to one of the most innovative games yet to come down the pike, and a must-have for any true Sim fanatic.

    The new characters and the new soap opera situations all make for a lot of fun in the same fascinating world.
