Since you started playing the VERY FIRST Sims game, even the first Simcity, how long ago was it?

My husband has a commodore plus 4! he owns a museum sized collection of old school gaming stuff...we need a bigger house lmao

I started in 2002 with the SIMS1.. I've owned every expansion pack for SIMS 1 through SIMS4! Both of my kiddos have grown up playing SIMS and I'm pretty proud of that lol <3 :)

It may have been 30 as I played Sim City but cant remember if i got it when it first came out or not.

I started with Sims 2 and also renting the console spin-offs from Blockbuster in 2006 :D

While my daughter & I were looking for some new PC games, she discovered PC Sims 3 games at EB GameStop store back in 2011. We never even heard about any Sims games before that & we defently didn't even know what a Base game does. So, we look around at the different packs that were in the store & as usual I price checked to see which ones had the best price. So, I bought Sims 3 Diesel Stuff Pack without the Base. :/ When I brought it home, I tried many times to install it & couldn't understand why it didn't work. :'( So, my daughter & I went back to the store & told the clerk what had happened. The clerk asked if we had the Base game & we said, what's a Base game. :o I bought the Base game & installed it as well as Diesel. It was a funny learning experience. :D Now, my daughter & I have our own Sims 4 games. And even thought Sims 3 will always have a warm feeling, I so don't miss the freezing up glitch bug. :s That was my one reason to go straight to Sims 4 in September 2014. ;)

I know I played one of the SimCity games when I was really young, but I don't know if I really "played" it or just sort of pushed buttons until things caught on fire...

I spent a lot of time in Sims 2, but I don't think I got into it right away. Google says it was released in 2004, so I probably started playing that around 2005 or 2006. By the end, I had quite a few expansion packs. And then I moved up to Sims 3 and eventually Sims 4.

As I've said in multiple threads, I started playing around a year before TS3: Supernatural was released, so 2011-12-ish. That was the first pack I ever bought for the game. I eventually bought every EP after that.

Coincidentally, I'm just now starting a save in TS3: Midnight Hollow (store world) where my sim is a vampire. He's supposed to be Vlad's (TS4) father. I guess you could say I'm going back to my sims roots. :)

I played sims city in 1987 on my old commodore 64.

sims 2 castaway on ds was mine

I was in my early teens when I found Sim City 4 at a local store. Officially, it was the first "Sims" franchise game I played, and that was around 2008-9 or so.
