This game was getting awfully close to getting a 10, but fell a little short.
Playing the original Sims on the XBox sure heightened my expectations for this year's version. It has all new items, and you can FINALLY go somewhere besides your house! Yay! Anyway everything was great from the get go, but the fun didn't last nearly as long as I thought it would. It lasted a week or two, and I was a little bored. If EA works on the fun factor, though, they'll get it next time.
