Product Description
The Sims  2: the next generation of the #1 PC franchise of all time. For the  first time, players control The Sims over an entire lifetime. Every  choice that is made has a relevant and dramatic effect on the life of a  Sim. Guiding your Sims through "Life's Big Moments" takes on new  importance, as players now get a "Life Score" to measure how well they  are playing each individual Sim. The decisions that players make  throughout the lifetime of their Sims now have an impact on their  long-term success or failure. A choice made as a toddler has a direct  effect on the teen and adult Sim they become. Will players be able to  successfully lead their Sims through such important events as a first  step, first crush, or marriage proposal, all while the clock is ticking?
The  Sims in The Sims 2 are more aware and responsive to both other Sims and  their surroundings. Sims truly come to life expressing moods and  feelings through more realistic body animations and for the first time  facial animations. They form complex relationships and are able to  distinguish between family and friends, platonic friendships and  romantic love. Sims in The Sims 2 now have DNA. Passing along physical  characteristics and traits to their offspring, Sims both resemble and  behave like their ancestors. As in real life, the appearance of the Sims  now changes over time. In addition to getting older, a Sim that spends  too much time on the couch will develop a paunch and a Sim that works  out will enjoy rock solid abs.
An entirely new 3-D engine makes the  world of The Sims 2 more life-like and dynamic. The Sims 2 will also  introduce an all-new "Create-A-Sim" feature. This allows you to  customize the facial features of your Sim with a few simple clicks to a  level of detail never realized before. In The Sims 2, players are now  able to build dwellings over two stories and have the ability to  coordinate and customise the homes of their Sims to a new degree of  design.
