Bought a new Gateway computer in 2000 and came with a bundle of games and software that was included with the price. About two years later I was moving and was packing up my desk and found The Sims in one of the drawers. I opened it and installed it while packing up more stuff. About two weeks later after getting settled I noticed The Sims icon in my start menu and I clicked it. I played for hours. I think if I remember correctly I started with the Newbies. I was hooked and I have been playing anything Sims (computer) related ever since. I played The Sims Online and was there until EA closed it. (EA announced that The Sims Online would be improved renamed it EA-Land and then closed it. I was devastated.) Anyway I think I owed all of The Sims 1 and 2. The Sims 3 is uncompleted. That game never did work well so went back to The Sims 2 and only built in the Sims 3 (loved house boats) until The Sims 4 came out. The Sims Medieval and building in The Sims 3 are my most fond memories. In real life I am still online friends with some of the people I met playing The Sims Online. (met some in person) That feeling I got the first time I played is still with me! I play The Sims 4 almost everyday!
