    It's really fun but I hope the next sims game for ps2 will be able to have the sims grow up, like the sims 2 for pc. I found it really hard to fall in love with another sim.

    Too easy, In the first day I made it to the big house. Is there anything else to do?

    It was a great game but i thought it could be much better. it's really good but the goals are kind of hard and there are more goals as well. other than that i think it is great.

    The real appeal to the game is not building or furnishing your house. Instead, you see your Urbz(this game's version of Sims) work in either 9 districts in the city, shop for the best style, socialize with other Urbz in the city and party until dawn. Call me crazy but this is my favorite Sims-related (or best Sims' game for some's case) game.

    Tem uma trilha ótima e um visual bacana. O jogo prende bastante pra simplicidade que promete no começo. Essa vertente urbana de The Sims podia ser mais aproveitada.

    I feel that the game opens up too quickly and that, while there a respectable nine districts, each has very similar goals and features. [Dec 2004, p.164]

    Possibly the best choice for those wanting a Sims game without having to do the house decorations and design, and for those who just want to be able to keep playing and playing without worrying to much about time management and having to deal with mundane tasks in an on going fashion.

    The Urbz is simply not fun. At all. Not only are your Urbz's bodily functions hyper-accelerated, but satisfying one of them, naturally to the detriment of another, is too time consuming with animations lasting an uncomfortably long amount of time, especially when you'll be seeing them so often.
