Summary: Not what I expected from Prima!
Review: By the game not the book! Everything in this book can be figured out in less then an hour. What also made me mad was that the new toys chapter left out some of the idems. By the livin' large stratigy guide to get just as much info on The Sims

Summary: *tsk *tsk *tsk
Review: I bought this book, hoping that it would give me some insite into certain questions I had on little 'trivial (yet annoyingly persistant) question that arose with the House Party expansion pack.This book was obviously nothing near what I had been hoping for! Yes, it gave you a printed out list on the pricing of ALL the objects in the game, but who on Earth would need that?!?! I derived nothing I did not allready know from this game, which made me a firm believer I had wasted my money. The Sims is not an RPG, there is no *MIND BOGGLEING* test that you must accomplish to be able to proceed in the game. Having a guide takes away from the experience of discovering new things to do--BY YOUR SELF! Heed my warning, avoid this book and discover things for yourself!

Summary: Sims Games
Review: I find this to be an incredibly good guide. Not only does it cover two games (original Sims and House Party) in one, but it gives excellent advice. It also has a bit of humor in one section (Chapter 8) The book has a total of 15 chapters, each describing something else. While one chapter goes into detail on Sim's personalities, another talks about throwing parties. Another chapter has a buying guide, with tips on what to buy, while another chapter is dedicated to telling you who can show up at your parties and how to get them to show up. The book also has pictures. This book is very helpful if you are having trouble holding good parties in the Sims House Party.

Review: I LOVE THE SIMS GAMES! they are so much fun. if you buy the sims games your money is being well spent. but there was just one thing that was a bummer it is that it does not work on XP it says it does but i have XP and a few of my friends do and it does not. but other than that it is awesome and fun a great thing to play when you are bored! I hope u get it and enjoy it!

Summary: Cool!
Review: I think this strategy guide is absolutely perfect! When I bought the SIms expansion: House Party, I didn't know what was in it and how I could handle it, but when I got this guide, it told me whats new and whats not. These amazing outfits, characters and themes made by Electronic Arts is simply a teenager's dream!!

Summary: One star for having the game on the book.
Review: It's not that it's poorly written or even that it doesn't have info but I guess I was expecting something that would help me. If you want to learn some strategies don't buy this book. common sense will tell you what they did. I was hoping for some real good stragegy but there isn't none. But if you do want to know little stats like how much your social goes down when you're at work then yeah this is for you. and the thing on the ghost with the campfire was neat. That's about it. But don't waste your money. You can figure this stuff out at the sims.com..
