i have now been playing the sims for 19 years thanks EA

I have also been playing for 19 years now in my fifties. :) <3

I been playing since sims 1 too. I'm 45.

I’m 48,(be 49 in Dec.) I have been playing Sims since I was in my late 20’s. I have enjoyed the Sims games.

I turned 40 last week, and have been playing since the Sims 1 launched. I remember the EBGames employee telling me he couldn't believe people would want to play a game like the Sims. :D Back then I was all about making my own skins and such so there would be more options for customization, though now I let other more capable people do those things.

I've been playing since just before Sims 4 was launched...5 years or 6, not sure. My granddaughter introduced me to the game, before that I didn't know Sims even existed. She had it on disc and urged me to try it for a while, "I just know you'll like it Gramma" she'd say. She was right, and I was hooked. I waited until Sims 4 was released to buy my own. I never tire of it, and have every expansion, game and stuff pack. I'm 65.

We bought TS1 when it first came out for my oldest daughter's 13th birthday. I started out just watching her play, then she asked if I wanted to try. From that moment on I was hooked. Our entire family played for a time, but now I'm the only one that still plays every day. I was 38 at the time, now I'm 57 and have three grandchildren with another one on the way. The Sims has enriched and enhanced my life in so many ways over the years, I can't imagine life without it. I just love it and hope it continues on for many, many more years to come! <3
