I started with the original Sims about 2003ish somewhere and fell in love with it. I remember when they first announced The Sims 2, the website wasn't even the iconic blue one it ended up being, it was like a giant Plumbob that when you clicked it, it opened up and you could go browse through the pictures, videos, interviews, and all kinds of stuff that definitely succeeded in pumping me to the max for the game! (Does anyone else even remember that? lol) Got it that Christmas after release, and it was seriously so incredibly impressive I could not wrap my little 11-year-old head around it. I think it is the best in the series (though I must admit TS3 came in a very close second) and still play the game to this day, I even found and purchased every single disc from eBay just to be able to do so... I suppose we are the "die-hard" fans :lol: but I'm totally okay with that :blush:
