Rating: Summary: Sims: Awsome Game For Everyone Review: I first played Sims at my Grandma's house. And I was instantly addicted to it. Controling the actions of all the sims was very fun, and seeing how they acted was also cool. I would recomend this game for ages 8 and up since there is death, crooks and such. But is overall a great game. I know I will be buying the expanson pack right away.-Sims fan
Rating: Summary: An important add-on! Review: My friend actually got the opportunity to be part of a smallgroup that played a demo version of the game, and from what I can tell the game sounds incredible! New furniture, characters, skins, homes, gameplay and more will make this expansion pack an essential addition to your original Sims game...An excellent game to expand the original, be sure to pick it up the day it hits the shelves, or better yet, buy it NOW off of amazon.com
Rating: Summary: Awesome improvements! Review: I have played the original version as well as the expansion and loved them both. There are unique differences between each, however. "Livin Large" throws in an enormous amount of new products and furniture to place at the fingertips of the sims (125 to be exact). Of course you can only appreciate this if you have experienced "The Sims" by itself. Basically, I would not recommend going out and blowing seventy dollars on both the original game and the expansion. Play the original and get a feel for the life of a sim. Then, don't hesitate to purchase "Livin Large". This expansion offers 5 new career tracks (50 new jobs). These include slacker, journalist, paranormal, hacker and musician. Of course you can always play on one of the original careers offered in "The Sims". Also included are new characters. For example, you can purchase a robot to do the tedious jobs around the house or a genie to grant your sims' wishes. And in character creation mode, several new outfits and heads will be available. And in case your one neighborhood is feeling cramped, "Livin Large" adds three new ones. Had enough? Be sure to check out "The Sims" and then enhance your gaming enjoyment with "Livin Large". You won't regret it.
Rating: Summary: Livin' It Up Review: Livin' Large wasn't bad, but I worship it compared to Vacation as it's got variety. Livin' Large has new items concentrated in the different ways of construction of a house. Lots of new doors, windows, wall textures and roofs are added as well as decoration items to go with the theme. I use the medieval theme a lot! It even includes the Love Bed, abduction of Sims are now possible through frequent use of the telescope, and Grim Reapers appear to decide the fate of your close-to-dead Sim who you can only save by beating it to a game of Stone-Papper-Scissors (cute).
Livin' Large definately enhances the game, and it's absence would affect the game greatly unlike some other expansion packs I could mention.
Rating: Summary: The Most Underated Expansion Pack Review: Actually this is a great installment, but my favorite is House Party. What's great about Livin' Large is mostly the items. New items include a robot, love bed, and a lot more. Like all the other expansion packs this one more neighborhoods. I would suggest you just wait for Sims 2 to come out instead of buying more expansion packs.
Rating: Summary: execelent Review: As all Sims players know, it can get rather boring with just the normal pack ` The Sims '. May I introduce you to livin large. Even though this expansion pack does not offer 'Downtown', 'Old town' or 'Vacations' it is a wonderful training tool of learning the way Sims work. With more relationship options, a heck of alot more decor, and new careers this pack is essential to the completion of mastering the Sims. One thing that is bound to help in this expansion pack is that you can make more 10 than houses. That number has now been multiplied by 5. You now can make over 50 houses, and better than ever. Some of the new objects are sure to make a large difference in your game... The magic lantern, other wise known as the 'Antique lamp' does indeed bring out a genie, which grants wishes. However you do not tell him what you want. He gives a choice, (for ex. Fire or Water) and the one you choose sets the spell he casts. It can be bad, it can be good. But you are taking a chance. The love bed, or 'The Vibromatic Heart Bed'. The big buzz about this object is it enables your Sims to experience sex. This became the downside of this expansion pack to younger children. If your child is the mischievous type, I don't suggest you let them play this, or else 'the talk' could come sooner then you think. In this bed it does give your Sims children, sometimes. But it does not change the raising process. And my favourite object, the electric guitar. A favourite among teens, your Sims now have the chance to live their dreams of being rock stars! Giving Sims the creativity skill point, it can totally change your household. But beware, if your Sim sucks, their family and friends will boo them. The Sims Livin' Large is definitely worth the money. I recommend it to new players, and experts that just want more stuff. Pick it up, you will love it.
