Hey all i just finished playing The Sims 2 for the psp, the game was pretty good. The Story line is pretty simple and will be the same story for all of your Sims models, the only things that will change is what you have in your house and your Sim and how much money and Food, Skills, Wants, Perks and Inventory Items you have along with Goals which is set of things your Sim wants to do to get rewards and to advance in game faster. The game will keep you really busy, because you will need to feed, shower, entertained, rest, and etc… your Sim character. The game is pretty fun for most parts epically when you buy very good Perks, that keep your Sim less hungry, more clean, and can stand bad smells “Grave yard, Bad food”. The money system in Sims 2 is called “Simoleons” and their very easy to get you can do missions and earn money, buy Money ++ Perks and sell house hold items to earn more and more money.
The game also features a system called “Skills” just like in real life you have to build your Body, Charisma, Logic, Creativity, Mechanical, and Cooking by eating, cooking, reading, working out and etc… Their is also a menu called “My Sim”which has the following options “Buy Perks” “Secret Score ##” “Friends Score ##” and “Assets Score $####” read below for information on My Sim options.
