Introduction to The Sims
"It is really one of the most awesome games i've ever played !!"
That could be my first impression for The Sims series. Yes, i'm not lying. I believe everyone would have said the same thing. Exactly the same thing, right?
It was maybe in the middle of 2008, when i FIRSTLY heard about a game called The Sims from one of my classmates. No joke, guys.. i'm maybe this silly person who lost in 20th century. I'm an old gamer, however. I started playing many games since i was 3. It was the gamebot or whatever in 1997, then SEGA console in 1998, PS1 in 1999, and some other gaming stuff until i came into my first lappie in 2002. There weren't so many good games in the lappie, so then i occupied myself much more on writing and playing PS1 in the other time. My parents had stopped buying me PS1 game CDs in 2002, so i had to enjoy all my old PS1 games.
Probably in 2005, my father bought a complete set of PC for me and my brother. I was so glad that finally i had something really entertaining at home. I learnt everything about computerization, together with my brother, and now computer is being one piece of my life. After the PC, i almost forgot about my old PS1, because there were actually so many new PC games to enjoy. Well, i like strategy and racing game for the most.
Back to the middle of 2008, i remembered looking at my friends building a house in The Sims 2. They also made a family, and named it with their names. I kept watching them, and i thought the game was wonderful, but i hadn't decided to try it yet. In the beginning of 2009, my brother showed me The Sims 2 Deluxe he just installed on his lappie. I tried to play, and i didn't understand anything at all. I understood about the purpose of the game, play with life. I just didn't know how far it came to our real life. I felt really stupid and excited at the same time.
The game is really great and i was addicted ever since. We can make our own family, build and decorate our own house, oh.. even the town. The simulation person is realistic and yeah.. the furniture and everything are good too. I played The Sims 2 for almost 5 months, and i stopped because of the national exams. I was really sad that my parents asked my brother to remove the game because my score at school was getting worse. I didn't think it was completely caused by the game.
Not long before that, i had heard about the new The Sims 3, which allows the player to interact and visit all over the town. Yeah, that's brilliant.. knowing that we aren't able to do such thing in The Sims 2. I don't mean to compare both, cause they have their own plus and minus. I decided to play The Sims 3 ever since, and now i've collected all the expansions.
Play with life, yeah.
