I think I'm alone in this statement, but I believe the Sims' games to be a waste of money. I mean honestly, who really gets enjoyment out of watching other people live their lives? I just can't stand it whatsoever. I like first and third person shooting games -- Battlefield 1942 Series and Halo. I also like some RPG games such as the Warcraft, Starcraft, and Age of Empires Series. I'm undefeated at Age of Empires so PM me if you wanna hook up a private game sometime :wink:
Okay, you've only mentioned FPS games and RTS games. There's not really any third-person shooters anymore, not like there used to be, anyway (yay Contra and the original Duke Nukem side-scroller!). RPGs are more like Baldur's Gate, Final Fantasy, and Zelda (which is really more an adventure game w/ RPG elements).
I know about the Sims and I have a few friends who are highly addicted to the game. I've tried the first one, but couldn't really get into it. I know about Sims 2 and there's actually a video (as in movies) series based on it. Check out www.strangerhood.com
Oh, and for Halo fans, there's also Red vs Blue (hilarious, even if you're not into FPS games) by the same people: www.redvsblue.com
I don't like Sims m'self, but I won't say it's crap 'cause there are a lot of ppl who enjoy it so I'm sure it's great, it's just not my kind of game.
