I remember Urbz so strongly because of the "pyromanic". You see, my brother and I would always notice this weird dude in sunglasses next to fires. Obviously, he was the one causing them so we always shooed him off and put the fires out ourselves. Fast forward to us now in our penthouse, grilling hot dogs for our guests when we caught ourselves on fire. Suddenly the weird dude jumps down from a helicopter, extinguishes us, does a cool pose, then hops back on the helicopter. And that's how we learned that we were constantly chasing off the firefighter. 😅

I remember my 11 year old brain thought that this was how adult life was going to be and how excited I was to have my own apartment and group of friends where we're out late at night and chugging redbull and doing cool stuff.

Yes!! The art style was great. I used to go online to read the comics and read the character descriptions

[@sombrego2260]

I loved the Urbz so much back then. It had a lot of flaws but it was also so crazy and different from the base sims. I liked the concept and I'd love to see a modern version of it.

There is something very relaxing with your videos. I really enjoy watching them, especially when I feel down. It might sound weird, but I have a condition that makes me have severe migraines that last days (few times a year only, fortunately) and I always come back to your channel when I recover from one. Thank you for you videos

[@Dream7Wolf]

And, yes, at the time I'm writing these comments, I am recovering from one lol

The Sims RPGs are so zanny. They're really underrated. I really like the Griptonite ones on GBA and the Castaway on PSP

[@lullabysorrow5746]

They need to bring back this game. It was hilarious. And fun to play with friends

[@Daniel-ci6wt]

One of my favourite games as a kid, thanks for playing it.

[@GrimGrenadine]

I've been loving your return to the sims, but never did i expect you to pick the game that had such a stranglehold on my childhood. I feel like i spent most of this in a nostalgic haze, thank you for reminding me of this

AA: Sees something nostalgic Also AA: **nyeeeeeh**

I remember being at the skate park, inhaling helium and then being very concerned and asking my mother if helium is a serious drug

When you find a channel that manages to manifest the exact kind of videos you wish you had the energy to force upon the world. And the best part is that means you don't have to do it yourself now. I've been laughing and smiling all morning at these videos while avoiding doing my shitty pointless job so thanks for that.

wish I could avoid my shitty pointless job...

[@Deus_Payne]

The SimCity Snes music popping in occasionally is pure bliss. Love that game, purest form of nostalgia for me.

[@jasmine-ruff-puff9951]

I've always loved Urbz. In fact, I could go for a playthrough right now.

[@cassirollo]

The Olympic breakdancing joke made me think this video was recent lol.. u called it

[@Dead_Hitori]

00's kids had all these different kinds of sims games, today kids only has sims 4

[@strawberrykais2808]

this game was my childhood. so many memories. i was so sad when i found out quite recently that they wanted to make an urbz 2 but didn't because the urbz kinda flopped

[@noobievids]

God I remember having the GBA and DS version and the DS version had this weird mini game where you could splice DNA of dinosaurs and you could keep one around as a pet. What a bizarre mess of a game that was on the same token a complete masterpiece.

[@trurocker03]

I love your writing style and I love the sims! I’m loving all the sims content 😁

[@darkranger116]

ah yes, Urbz, the Fallout 2 of the Sim series

[@xkristixx]

Ah yes... One of the PS2 games I still reach for to play at times. I remember I started my first playthrough in Neon East. It's still one of the best areas in my opinion (Skatetail park is pretty cool too).
