Review: The Sims is a great game. It is SO addicting! Everyone should own this game! The best thing to do is make you and your dream house-then make your family and your family's dream house! One of the great things about this game is that you can become famous! So everyone who wants to become famous or likes computer games should buy this game. THIS GAME IS THE BEST IN THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Summary: The Tripleeagle rating
Review: When I first found The Sims, it was in my dad's office.
I looked at it. I was amazed: it was the present I was dreaming of for years and years and now I had it in my hands. It was mine, all mine!!! I didn't ask him for it but he just bought it like that. But did I tell you that it was only the Sims original (because you need the Sims original, Deluxe, Double Deluxe or Sims 2 to make an expansion pack work.
So I became a BIG fan of Sims and my first expansion pack that I had for my birthday was The Sims Superstar Expansion Pack
by Electronic Arts.

But I remind you to visit sims.com and Tripleeagle.net for a nice relaxed day!!!

Summary: Not a fan of "The Superstar"
Review: When I first purchased this, I played it for hours. My opinion, this is my least favorite expansion pack.

The objects are excellent! I think one of the reasons to purchase this pack is for the great objects. The new location offers poster and clothing shops, spas, movie sets, music studios..etc. The celebrity Sims are all right, as well (athough I disagree with some of the celebs Maxis has chosen to 'sim'"). What's funny is if your Sim earns a few star points, you get an "obsessed fan" who follows you everywhere.

So what are the bad things about this game? Well, it just gets pretty repetitive. Earning star points at first can be easy if you are close to maxing out your abilities, like charisma..etc. When you finally reach stardom (but not super stardom), making music videos and walking down the runway can be quite annoying. you don't really know what the directors want. you can be fully refreshed and you have maxed out your skills, but it gets annoying when they disagree with what you're doing.

Summary: SuperStar- not that hard!
Review: I was very suprised to find that many reviewers were saying how hard it is to gain one star, and to make famous friends. Just make sure your sim is all greened up when they head to stuido town, and since the first few levels don't require skill, it should be easy! As for getting famous friends, find a sim who has a lower or about the same star level as you. Talk to them, compliment them, whatever, just get a few social points. Then head home and invite them downtown! We all know it doesn't take much to make friends there. In no time you'll have famous friends and some star levels. Once you get to the more advance photo shoot, and from that point, don't make the same mistake I did at first. They'll give you 3 ways to do the shoot (or song, or soap opera, whatever). Randomely pick one way, and choose it three times (you dont have to find the sequence the three go in like I thought). The director will either have you in a thought bubble or you in a thought bubble with an X through your sim. Use these indicators to switch what you need to. You get three tries, so it isn't too bad. Just make sure in between visits to studio town you work on charisma and creativity. Use a piano for creativity because they'll gain fun at the same time. Overall, this is more challenging then the previous expansions (and makin magic) but if you work at it, it's quite fun!
p.s. if your sim is good friends with a celeb, go into the celeb trailer, and invite that person in, and see what happens ;)!

Summary: Not one of The Sims best expansions
Review: The long wait of a new expansion is over. The games have stopped flying off the shelfs. And now, their computers are slow.
In "The Sims: Superstar" your Sims can embark on the jorney to become famous. When I heard this I was extremely excited, thinking of all the fun it would be to have famous Sims and trophies and gold toilets. I was very wrong.
In reality, The Sims Supterstar has a new Studio Town wear you can pose for tabloids and eat sushi. You can meet real movie stars such as Avril Lavinge, Cameron Diaz, etc. But really, I dont think its worth the money.
Pros:
- New Stuff: The new game has great stuff, including statelites, wallpaper and carpets.
- New Actions: You can blow Star Kisses and ask people what it is like being famous.
Cons:
- Speed: Sims has always been slow but this is rediculos! When I go to load Studio Town, it takes up to ten minutes. By then, my sims have laready thought of something to do!
- Diffculty: I know The Sims is supposed to be hard, but it is near impossible to make it oast Stepping Stone unless you have the startagy guide...which costs alot of money!
- Errors: When you go to move your mouse, it leaves a trail. The little white mouses pop up all over the screen! Now *that* is annoying.
Okay, as you can see the Cons outweigh the pros but only by one. This may seem like a good buy but I seriosly would not recomend it to who loves The Sims.

Summary: Very Dissapointed ..
Review: Okay now I play the sims for hours at a time because im addicted to all of the games, and I own all of them. But I am very dissapointed in this game because even though the new Items are really cool, and I like the new location... Its just not that fun! Its almost impossible to get famous or even to get one star, and its truly impossible to make friends with anyone remotely famous. This game was a huge let down for me and all my friends who play. I can tell you though if your looking to play the sims then your best bet is to buy all the other great ones like Hot Date or the best one Makin Magic. Definately do NOT buy this game!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Addicting..... Until later
Review: This game is fun, but it sort of gets annoying when your sims won't do things or get depressed. And it's hard and takes long hours to get your sim to even get to a "stepping stone". You have to work really hard at creativity and carisma to get 1 full star. And i don't even know what happens after that because i can't get to it! I mean, you work on creativity and carisma, then go to studio town, get half a star point for singing, and by then, it's midnight, your sim is hungry, depressed and needs to go to the bathroom really bad. And worst of all, it messes up their stupid sleeping pattern when they get back to their house because their house doesn't change at all! If you know someone who owns this game, borrow it, no use wasting your money!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Superstar 'rocks'
Review: I bought the sims superstar and love it. With 150+ new items and with the new 'tabloid' feature this game deserves a 5/5!!! The new STUDIO TOWN is great with fashion catwalks, rock stages, music video and movie sets. You can even meet celebs like Avril, Christina and Marilyn Monroe!!! You know your sim is a superstar when he/she gets 1 of 3 awards presented by Marilyn herself. Oh, and watch out for those OBESSED FANS. If you have a butler, it could get ugly. Overall a great game that never gets old.
