The Sims Life Stories-Ever Play It?

No, I always felt it was too scripted for a sandbox player like me. But I did play Castaway many years later just long enough to get to the sandbox mode. :)

No I never played it or Castaway. I heard they were basically watered down versions for those with laptops that couldn't run 2, so I never bothered playing either of them.

I got life stories for my birthday when I was a kid :) never played castaway sadly..

Life Stories was my gateway to the series as a little kid. My mum would only buy me that because it was cheaper and wouldn't kill our laptop haha. I pestered her enough to let me buy The Sims 2 eventually.

I had it back in the day, and I got through the story modes. then I tried to transfer the .sc4 files over to TS2.

I played it when I was about 11, and loved it so much. When Riley broke up with her boyfriend over Dylan, I had to quit playing for a week to come to terms with it. I remember explaining everything to my brother (who had no clue what I was on about or why) and asking him 'But do you think they'll end up together? Because I don't think I can go on playing if they don't.'

Anyway, sims life stories was my first introduction to the sims games, and from there I bought sims 2.

I bought it and Castaways. There was a bug in it which I couldn't get past. :(
It was fine for what it was. :)

Oh geeze, I remember Sims Life stories. A friend had it and gave me the disc because she thought it was an adventure pc game. Of course I knew what it was and never played that one and when launching it, I remember it told me I had to play with a pre-made in order to unlock making my own sims. Good times.

I love the cinematic effects they had to those stories from all three stories pack

I picked it up last month and it does run really well! Personally, I like the quest aspect, but I also really like Urbz in the city.
