Life leading up to The Sims 2 (PSP)
Tank, his father, General Buzz, and brother, Ripp, all live together with the Smith family. Oddly, Buck doesn't appear in this game. Tank has let someone hack onto his computer and you have to repair it. During this time, he will be constantly beating on Ripp until his computer is fixed. You can sell secrets to Tank, but the one he wants to know is why Pollination Technician 9 Smith is outside around midnight, snooping by the alien crash site. You do not have to tell him, but if you choose not to, he will become very angry with you.
