Original Sims

I'm not afraid of change, but I definitely like the first Sims more than Sims2 or Sims3. I think it's amazing to base the characters off of people you know, even though i'm sure everyone does that at first. I know every cheat, and the only family I use cheats on are the Cheaters. I don't like using them on any other family, because... it's cheating. I have this weird habit of starting a family, with a small house, and cheap furniture. I like progress. As they go to their jobs, and make money, and get promotions, I used their money to add more rooms, and improve their motives. Does anyone else do that, or does everyone cheat?

I love the sims 2 more than both the other series when the sims 3 just launch but I am now loving the sims 3 also more , it is so advance and give me limitless things to do . Sims three goals are so hard to get making me hook to it , I like a challenge I am over sims 1 long time now . I always start my family with a humble life also and watch as the next generation rise to riches . The think I could not enjoy about the sims 1 the children cannot grow up nor anyone die making it less realistic to how I want to play .

I think all the sims are great. I have played them all and find them to be most fascinating. As you venture into the game you come to find that some of it not fit for kids but the kids don't always figure it out lol. I do have to say that sims is a very time consuming game. You start and before you know it and hour goes by, then two, finally you look up and omg 5 hours. It is crazy to say but it is true. Has happened to me.

What a surprise! I like Sims 2 more than 1. I haven't Sims 3 yet. I really like the improvement when I can be able to deliver my own child. Whereas Sims 1 doesn't have this interesting feature. I know a few cheats in this game, but I don't like to use it. I think it is funnier to play it by myself rather than depending on the cheating ways. I love China

I used to play the original sims. It was sometimes a bit frustrating but i still like it. I havent got a chance to play any other sims. I also did the same as you, i didnt cheat. The fun of the game, was starting low and in the end having all the good stuff. I dont really see any point of using cheats. See ya and happylotting.

I like Sims 2 and 3 more than the original, because sims can now age, they have babies and toddlers and it's all in 3D. Plus, you can be more creative with their clothing and looks. They can also have a car and visit neighbors or go to the spa, library.. I used cheats in Sims 1, but now I like starting with a poor family with a small house and working their way to the top jobs and everything. If you play with the money cheat, it becomes boring after a short time.

I do not like the original sims, but I do like Sims 2. I wanted to get Sims 3, but it wasn't compatible with our computer, so we had to return it. I don't know that I'd want to get it anyway. Now, I do use the cheat codes but I've played the games a few times. I was actually thinking about playing the sims again. I don't use cheat codes the first time through, and it seems to be that I've only used them for the sims games.

My kids still plays the original Sims up to this moment. I had given them the second and third version of this sequel, but still they prefer the original one. They never use cheats though I can provide it to them.

I like that The Sims works faster on a computer and is easier to navigate through than its sequels. Back then, I used to cheat a lot, but my main purpose was just to design a house. A few years later, still playing the game, I wanted to be challenged so I had to let my Sim earn the hard way.

Sims games are really great game it is like having a human pet and it is not easy to take care of it when you have many sims in action. I love that game but I wish it will be online for free to play.
