Bought "The Sims" for the Playstation 2 today. Impression so far: worst case of "Just a few minutes more" since I first played Civilization on the Mac back in 1993.
Ergh. I can't stand it. It's fun for a little while, then you get really pissed off that they won't look after themselves. I hate wiping their bums for them. I hate having to get them up for work every morning. It's a complete pain in the ass. Only good thing is when you put them in a small room with no doors or windows and watch them die.
Welcome to the club. YOu know, some of my online friends from here are from a Sims Forum called N99.....which is very interesting. I've never played the one for playstation though........I'm too hooked for the one on the PC. I hear it's got some very kewl stuff about it though.
Run! Run now! Just grab the wife and flee to the woods! Then call in some neutral psycho to go in and smash the CD into little pieces, otherwise you will *never* have a life again.
Seriously.
I'm addicted to Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, but I can stop.
I bought it for myself for Christmas 2001, and played for 8 hours straight. My stepkids are both so addicted I've bought them nothing but Sims extension packs for presents for two years. I'm a little more reasonable about it now, but I still throw things when Sims refuse to turn gay for me.

I can *never* stop once I play the Sims.
