[@Emmyy]

Oh my god I hated it, still love The Sims 2 on pc tho

[@kathrynkeeling6440]

Emma McChug I got stuck on one of the missions and got so frustrated that I traded it in for Sims Castaway for the DS but got stuck on that one too... lol.

[@cybernicala]

Ashley R I couldn't get past the MOLE....it's honestly didn't know what he wanted

[@CHIYOMARU730]

The aliens and the soundtrack for the robots scared me as a kid

[@cybernicala]

i could never get the robot out of my penthouse lol so i just gave up a few years ago, but it was hella fun looking back. i used to play this game for hours at a time lol

[@TheChillyCucumber]

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who got scared shitless by the aliens!! I tried time traveling once and ooooo boy that was traumatizing

[@alec7550]

TheChillyCucumber playing this as a probably 8 year old, the aliens were traumatising for me 😂

[@Daniel56233]

I have great memories of this game in 2006 I was 13 and used to play the game every single day after school on my Nintendo ds , miss those days :(

[@ellize1998]

I love How weird and dark this game got at the end. Like there was a sect and a maffia boss and the evil robot you had To flight

[@ashtrashhh]

Celien M. think so

[@TeeReed]

ellize1998 how do you get the robot out the penthouse? Because I still have the game and still haven't finished it .

[@craptap2029]

ellize1998 I never got to the end but I loved being the superhero mouse

[@miaa8500]

Celien M. The autopsy was so fun as a kid

[@bloodyrose2076]

OMG THE SUPERHERO MOUSE. God this is seriously bringing back amazing memories.

[@bobbybrainstorm]

That nostalgiaaa... I was too young to even realize what was going on in the game but I still loved and played it anyways

[@alyssamoses5273]

Just a few tips for this game if you plan on playing more (please do, I love this) -If you fool around in the desert for too long or let your needs stay low for too long, your sanity will decrease by the second. When your sanity is too low, you pass out and re spawn in your room, and you walk funny for a while, which usually lasts about the length of an in-game shower. -Don't time travel (change the in game time) because if it happens too much, the concierge freaks out and yells at you -You have to memorize the interactions to cheer them up, calm them down, etc. If you get one wrong, then your sanity goes down. If you get it wrong a few times, they get upset and walk off. -You can sell nuclear rods in the town hall and gourds in Mama Hogg's restaurant for spare money. -Go to the freezer in the basement in the hotel and punch meat to get your sanity up. -Nuclear rods only fuel for a certain amount of time, so always pick them up and keep them handy. -When you vacuum, items will pop up that isn't dust (pennies, gold teeth, rings, dice, action figures, gnomes) and you can pull them out and it will sell them and give you money -Build the art museum ASAP and make POS art and make sure it is ranked as a masterpiece. (you will see what its ranked when you finish it) you can earn major cash that way Hope this helps, thumbs this up so james can see it!

[@splat1701]

Helpful but im already a veteran at this hame lol (not bragging) also did you beat the game?

[@dog8438]

Reading these tips is very nostalgic. I had this game back then when I had no access to the internet so I had to figure everything out myself on video games. This game was great. I eventually beat it but got stock on the mechanical points part for a very long time.

[@aniekvanbennekom6242]

Not only will the concierge yell at you for skipping time, you will also launch an alien invasion and you’ll have to shoot aliens with the water gun or when you already have the rat superhero, you can beat them that way. They will be in the lobby, atrium, basement, rooftop, outside the hotel and in the desert.

[@ArcaneEntity]

How do you know if it’s ranked masterpiece? I’ve completed this game several times and somehow I totally missed that part?

[@canariawing]

who would've known beating your meat restores your sanity ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

[@panbake4622]

I loved this game so much as a kid , but I remember always being a little scared while playing it , idk it just had a weird atmosphere.

[@f1yrand0m50]

Same! I was always scared playing this game because of the atmosphere

[@katieburns1101]

Same! I had the GBA game, such a weird creepy vibe, but so good!

[@ewidontlikeyou]

@@katieburns1101 good like urbz gba ? or not comparable? urbz and sims bustin' out gba were greaat.

[@aceford5523]

Exactly

[@StarrieMoonlight]

Same I don't think I got too far in the game

[@cayla4379]

James, if you tip the cow and then milk it, it gives you a milk shake! 😂😂 If you milk them without tipping them, it just gives you regular milk!

[@KHCoasterKid]

Cayla Welty And if you give the cow chocolate you can get chocolate milk and chocolate milk shake!

[@Managirl112]

Plus feed them chocolate to get chocolate milk/milkshake

[@daoneforever7204]

now i really want this game

[@what13106]

Ohh i never even knew that

[@abignoux]

I remember this game omg. The aliens and the goons used to scare me sm considering i was only 7 😂😂

[@thomasvalenzuela720]

Antonia Bignoux yeah same! 😂😂

[@ajedwards194]

That alien music was honesty terrifying 😂

[@marteens6398]

Do any of you guys, remember the basement in the hotel oh man it gave me the creeps.

[@ellie8161]

DUDE I almost flipped when I saw that thumbnail... the Sims 2 DS is a beautiful, trippy mess.

[@mmaantj]

So we stay in this mess this beautiful mess

[@jamieroberts8911]

Tip to get your sanity up really fast is to go down to the basement and into the freezer and punch the frozen meat in there, I loved this game so much when I was younger lol

[@SmilyLily1996]

being careful not to stay in the freezer too long because being in there also depletes your sanity very fast.

[@GymmyRhys]

haha, of all the things, punching a bag of meat in a freezer keeps you sane, classic example of gaming logic xD i hate how by the time you get out the freezer; your sanity goes down a smidge though, because you know... by the time you've walked through the freezer, it goes down, this upsets my OCD

[@GymmyRhys]

@SmilyLily1996 - thats why you go straight to the meat asap and leave asap

[@rachelp2960]

Omg same!

[@ollydavis2495]

*Go into the basement and beat your meat

[@xRainbowCheeriosx]

Omg I miss this game! I loved how weird this game was and the fact that you could just paint pictures whenever (and I think sell them?) was the best thing ever tbh

[@Clooooxx44]

This will help! (Not mine) Romance: they have their hand on their ear - you click serenade they lean in - you kiss them they have their hand down their waist - you show off bod Calm down: they get in fighting mode - you beg they give you the hand - you yell at them they put both hands up - you give them calm hands Restrain: (this is hard to explain) they have really high sorta chicken wings - you do steady they have medium chicken wings- you do a stern yell they a down really low - you do stop Cheer up: they put their arms out - you give them a hug they start crying - you console them they put they head up and hands together - you give them a pep talk

[@alibean101]

Chloe-Mae lol i loved how they explained the restrain one 😂

[@sillE2025]

what a hero you are

[@molliewilliams-hughes4964]

For years I thought this game was a dream, but now I've found it again and I'm having so much nostalgia!! ♡

[@jermaine1998]

I always was like "screw the customers" and took the prettiest room instead of the managers sweet 😂

[@ecliptic410]

Jebellish omg I used to do that kkfjfdj

[@e.9785]

Suite* tho hahaha

[@LeahDanielleeTTV]

SAME LOL especially the deluxe sweet

[@antheajohnson4234]

In the end you were forced to be in the penthouse suite until ava showed up though

[@tylersoto7465]

Ikr I did the same thing after I was done with the main game and just moved in the penthouse living like prince oh yea and decorated my way with a plasma tv, hot tub and my pet and have Ara fullisi as my live In girlfriend as a guest to pretend she's living with me and when I have to check her out I just check her right back in lol and I didn't really care to run a hotel to much bullshit to deal with so I just let guest in and didn't bother to mess with them and if something happened I was eh fuck it it's whatever and I just wanted to chill and enjoy by cool crash pad and roam free doing fun stuff and just collect nuclear rods for money and for hotel electricity etc wish my hotel could be a free flowing community and not a hotel and just let people roam free without charge in the rooms and go wherever but my penthouse was off limit and I did need anything real I just collect nuclear rods for money and have free power and just live off of it and if people want to stay just have to contribute someway another and let's this PARTY STARTED 🌿🌿🚬🎊🎊🍻🍻😆😜

[@maddiedoyle2234]

[@rachelp2960]

this was honestly my game lol

Yes there was a bovine shrine and the mob guy Frankie Fusilli lol!

[@minakunn]

Omg this game was so awesome xD I used to love this game, but was always scared of the aliens and robbers? Idk for sure anymore. But one thing I still know is how I loved to tip the cows to get milkshake haha And now I remember, I used to love drawing paintings in the gallery. I had so much fun with it as a kid!

[@SophieRoseSims]

I used to love playing this one!

[@Samm1e]

Man, I'm still mad that I lost this game a long time ago. THAT PIRATE CASINO GAME, i WAS A CHAMP.

[@cordeliax8972]

I REMEMBER LOVING THIS WHEN I WAS YOUNGER but i always got stuck after the second alien attack IM HAVING NOSTALGIA

[@VesLuma]

James, you need to play more of this. Change time back once! :P Really, you even can be a rat super hero in this game. You NEED to experience this.

[@stoucemouse]

Definitely one of my favorite Sims games! Had this when it originally came out but I lost it when moving. I finally found a new copy at GameStop a few months ago. I've spent so much time playing it, such an addicting game.

[@jessierivera6857]

stoucemouse that's interesting...I was addicted to the game and ended up losing it to a move as well lol...I never got another copy though

[@dog8438]

My dog chewed up my game when I was a kid. Good thing I beat it :/

[@isabellewoods3074]

@@dog8438 the dog or the game? i'm calling peta, say sike right now

oh my god... I played this game SO much despite it creeping the fuck out of me. the aliens and robots are so terrifying and to this day I swear to God this game is legitimately cursed.

[@kmvzlh]

"It's old" he keeps repeating as I am sitting here remembering begging my mom to buy it for me when it first came out. I am only 21, I shouldn't be feeling this old. lol.

[@sarahjames9768]

one day, I'm going to buy all my old console sim games. I had so many great memories playing them. I didn't have a computer as I kid, so I cherished these titles. I even still have the old game informer magazine that did a two or three page coverage on all the sims 2 console ports

Oh my god, I remember this! I got to a point where if I went outside something happened which you will find out later (I hope) and because I couldn't go outside, I just stopped playing the game 😂 If James gets past it in a later part, I might start playing it again 😬

[@oceanaelf]

I didn't want to like this comment because it had 69 likes, but it's a good comment so I liked it anyways.

[@courtney7519]

This game was honestly one of my favorites growing up right along Animal Crossing!! Love the series!

[@Kaitza2]

this is giving me awful flashbacks to when I’d almost finished the game and then overwrote my save file. very traumatic.

[@hotandspicyqueso27]

James you can pick up cards from the discard pile so if your opponent throws down a card you need to can pick it up and play it!

[@avocadocorn]

Casey McNeilis this was kind of bothering me because he could have taken one from that pile at least once and he would've had three of the same card

[@hotandspicyqueso27]

Yeah same! I was cringing as he passed up some of those cards.

[@zexceed4388]

When I was a kid I loved playing this, it gives me so much nostalgia. I remember being super scared when going in the desert, when fighting those big evil guys when I was a rat hero and the scariest among all, Alfred... I don't know how i even managed to "cheese" it, because I couldn't beat him normally. Good memories...

[@valessandra4323]

Omg, you unlocked a memory I completely forgot I had

[@knotz909]

I played this game so damn much when I was a wee lad. The vacuuming minigame stole my childhood. Also, THEONA!!

OOO I had this game, it was my favorite!

UM NO. the alien music was scary and I avoided it at all costs because that was what nightmares were made of.

[@TrinaVega119]

Shannon Omfg, the Alien music freaked the fuck out of me too!

[@TrinaVega119]

Archie Read I would change the time on my DS and fast forward but the game knew when you did that so you'd get punished and I hated that!

I wish there was someone on KZbin willing to do a full playthrough of this game. I have such fond memories of it. I never got around to completing it, but I got pretty close I think!
