Review: This "pack" is one that I never really got into. It just allows you to go on dates and go shopping downtown. I found this pack really boering.

Review: I recieved The Sims Hot Date as a gift for getting an award at school. This is really one of the 2 best expansion packs out there for your sims; Hot Date and Living Large have the greatest new items, themes, and all sorts of other cool stuff. The content may be a little much for younger people, but mature and trusting indivudials should be fine with this game (the parents should see the game, then decide). This is really an awesome game =)

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 did'nt 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: Hot Date Expansion Pack
by Electronic Arts
.
But i remind you to visit sims.com and Tripleeagle.net for a nice relaxed day!!!

Summary: Romancing the Sim!
Review: As I say with all Sims expansion packs so far.. this one is GREAT! It's a fun addition, full of new stuff, new interactions.. everything your Sim needs to get the apple of his eye to gaze upon him with adoration.

With this expansion, you get a downtown area to go to. The downtown is full of shops and restaurants your Sims can visit to have a good time. In the shops, you can try on and buy new pajamas or evening wear for your Sim (or his/her date!)! ANd the coolest thing is that if you buy new PJs, your Sim will be wearing them next time he/she slips in to bed. :D Also, buying new clothes for a date reallly impresses them. Sims are very materialistic creatures.

Also in the shops you can buy chocolate, flowers, teddy bears and jewelry and give them to your significant other as a present - which is sure to gain brownie points. Like I said.. Sims love stuff! There are also magazine racks where you can buy magazines -> these have the added benefit of helping your Sim gain new interests. So if your Sim beauty is trying to impress a certain someone with her sports knowledge, reading the magazine can help!

You also get your choice of fine restaurants.. anywhere from a greasy diner type to fine dining with mood music courtesy of a pianist. While eating, there are tons of new interactions - including my favorite: Cuddle! Plus, while your Sims are cuddling up in a booth they can take it a step farther if they're daring and give their sweetheart a smooch (or maybe an all-out makeout session?). Just watch out for the old crone...she frowns heavily upon public displays of affection.

There are some new items for at home too - including the cream of the crop - a love bed! Your Sims can have a little fun in the heart-shaped love bed, but beware the consequences (hint hint accidental baby hint hint).

This is one of my favorite expansion packs - I always enjoyed the relationship aspect of my Sims.. getting one Sim to fall in love with another. It's the reason I play the game! I highly recommend this expansion pack - you won't regret it. And that nerdy Sim who needs a little boost to his love life will thank you as well!

Summary: Lots of fun if your computer meets the specs
Review: I would not recommend this game for anyone who has below a 500 mhz Pentium 2 or Duron processor, especially if you download fan skins and objects a lot. (The more non-official stuff you put in your game, the more memory and/or processor power you will require, and the longer your game will take to load.) When I had this game on my old 500 mhz processor, I had about 1 gig of fan stuff in my downloads directory, it took half hour to load, and animation was choppy when downtown got crowded. (If you do use custom downloads, I strongly recommend to back them up before installing ANY new Sims expansion pack. That way, if you have to reinstall from scratch, you can reinstall your custom downloads.)

But if you have a newer computer or are not using custom downloads, the game runs great and is lots of fun. (Once I got my new (faster!) computer, the game ran so much better and I never had anymore trouble with crashes or slow-downs when downtown.) If you liked the lovebed from Living Large or Sims Deluxe, you'll love the new interactions and relationship options in Hot Date.

Summary: A huge leap for Simkind!
Review: This game really really adds to the Sims. It was the first expansion to let your sim leave its house, and introduced a whole slew of new people for your sim to become friends with, with out you having to manage them in an actual sim household. The new "Downtown" area is a place to meet people on your own, or go on dates with prospective lovers. Go shopping for swimwear, formal wear, and pjs, as well as other trinkets and gifts to give to other sims. Go out for a casual drink and hit the dance floor, or take your love out for a dinner date where you can cuddle and make out in the booths. Be serenaded, or have a picnic outdoors, or just cuddle on the new swing bench.

The new household objects aren't that vast, but they are generally classy themed. Most of the things for this game are designed for downtown, but the ones for the house are lovely as well. Another huge part of this game is the new social interactions! Tons of new kisses, hugs, talk-subjects, nagging, bragging, insults, teasing, just about every aspect of the game has a new level to it that you can test out. This is a really great expansion pack and highly recommended!
