After starting my blog, I am surprised that I haven't even written about Sims yet...
The Sims happen to be one of my passions and yet they go unnoticed in my mentions.
When I was in high school eons ago I became aware of this game through a friend. I would remember her telling me on the bus on how she stayed up very late playing Sims. At this point in my life, I was only playing PlayStation 2 games so I guess, now that I think about it, Sims was my first PC game!! Wow... he he. Anyway, after obtaining my first copy of the original game it wasn't long after that that I began purchasing expansion packs. To me, it didn't matter that the expansion packs would almost equal the price of another game because I was more interested in trying new actions or adventures. Then, once I managed to get about half of the expansions, EA introduced The Sims 2.
"OMG!!!" I would exclaim and I passed on the first game to my siblings. Soon, I was immersed in Sims 2 causing all sorts of mischief. It really wasn't until The Sims 3 that I wanted a better PC and eventually we finally got the internet. Slowly, my family was moving out of the Stone Age! Yes! I thought, I can finally customize my game!
And that's exactly what I did. I found the sites where people were adding custom content. I created stories and even tried to film them. And then, I even attempted to build my own homes and upload them so other people could enjoy them. Sims was the life for me! ^^
Now, it's years later and I am eagerly awaiting for The Sims 4! I think in celebration, I will upgrade my computer too! I've always wanted to because just a few months ago I became horribly depressed to see that my graphics card is now in the minimum requirements on recent PC games.
