Simply Marvelous To The MAXIST!

Pros Rich Graphics, Detail, Sound, Hours of Gameplay
Cons Slow load times.
Recommended it? Yes

From time to time, we all here the phrase, "There's no need to reinvent the wheel!" or "If it isn't broke, don't fix it." Apparently Maxis, thinks outside the box, and beyond the norm and has decided to reinvent it's hit game "The Sims" with it's new offering "The Sims 2".

A worthy successor to the Baldur's Gate Series

bycorey_russell Mar 11, 2010
14 Helpfuls 15 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Excellent graphics, sound, story, party based format
Cons Considerable hardware to run
Recommended it? Yes

First of all, let me just say that I very much enjoy Baldur's Gate (made by BioWare, the same people who made Dragon Age: Origins) with its party format and NPC interactions. Dragon Age: Origins helps to recreate that enjoyment by having up to 3 other NPCs (Non-Player Characters) be part of your... Read full review »
