Summary: This was the first expansion pack of the Sims. The Grim Reaper was first introduced in this expansion pack. When a Sim dies, the Grim Reaper shows up. Another occupant of the house can beg the Grim Reaper not to take their Sim friend. When you beg the Grim Reaper, one of the following things will happen. Sometimes the Grim Reaper will play rock paper scissors with you. If you win, your friend comes back to life as good as new. If you lose, your friend becomes an undead Zombie. Sometimes the Grim Reaper refuses to play rock paper scissors and your friends die. This game is cool but can also be boring. You make your Sims eat,sleep,bathe,use the bathroom and go to work. That's about it. You can also make Sims play an instrument and make them study. You can also make them slap each other silly or attack each other. The computer will make other Sims you're not controlling slap or attack you if they're mean. If you make your Sims nice, they usually won't hit or attack. Note:If Sims who live together attack each other several times, one of them will leave the game permantely. So be careful. A good way to make Nice Sims slap you is to buy and use a Voodoo doll on them. The voodoo doll was first introduced in this expansion pack. Only adult Sims can use the doll. It can be used on the other Sims who live in the house or visitors from other houses. Note:To make the Sims be able to slap you, you,the voodoo doll, and your victim must all be in the same room. The voodoo doll will work if your victim is in another room but he/she will not slap you. It is better to keep the voodoo doll outside. If you and your victim are anywhere outside he/she will slap you. The Sims mumble. You can't understand what they say. When women slap each other they yell "Snick!" or "You fracken!". When men slap each other they yell "Ve Vi Sliden!". When men and women slap each other they mostly say nothing. Except for the Grim Reaper,the voodoo doll, four new neighborhoods, and a couple of other things this expansion pack isn't much different from the original sims. You will need at least a 32MB computer to run this expansion pack.
Summary: The Sims "the best game ever", I despise the people on this website who have submitted the reviews saying that The Sims is fantastic. They are a bunch of liars and sadistic, boring folks. They tricked me into buying this game, when I could haev bought something far, far, far better. Livin Large or Livin it up does not seem to add all that much more to the game. It remains the same, boring, repetitive and docile...not to mention that it turns your brain to mush.

Summary: This is edited version of Mark of Virginia Loundon. Pleas replace, he apologizes for the initial shoddy job (edited by him overseen by his parents) General/Summary: This expansion is okay but is not the best thing I have seen maxis make. If you want a couple new things and maybe some new floor or wall tiles with some extra crud this is the game for you. Party house expansion is a 100% better then this game .I was real unhappy with this game when I got it. This expansion stinks trust me. On the box it looks cool but really stinks. This expansion is not worth your money .If you're looking for something new, buy party house expansion; it is much better, and loads better.(Note both expansion packs can not coexist ).
Summary: The p.c was dead untill all of the sudden the sims came out and blew my mind away. not only did i play it 24 hours a day but also had to pre order. Boom all of the sudden the first expansion came out and wow did this game rock.after playing it for 2 weeks strait i played it some more,because i got 4 more neiborhoods to build
