10 years? Good Lord!
I feel old. I remember getting it when I was 17. Where has the time gone? I had it for PS2 at the time I first had it. Now I have it for Xbox. I havent' played it in a while. I might do tonight.
Is anyone willing to share some tales from the game. Funniest moments, infuriating glitches...e.t.c?
I remember one of the first times I played it waaaaay back as a 19 year old, and I had made a odd looking urb. Fat dude with a ugly face. Just for my own amusement. Anyhow, I had just got started in the Subway District and knew that Urango McBain or whatever that bad guy's name is for the area was about to arrive and mug my sim. I was going to have my sim quickly do a bit of work to earn some money, get a new top then have him rush off back to his cruddy apartment. After he had got his work done I had him do a dumpster dive for the heck of it. Why not, he has a shower I'll have him wash later. He pulls out that stink bomb attack thingy, which surprised me. Urango appears and I knew what I had to do. Urango goes straight for my sim, with that little *Mug* thing popping up. I cancel out his mugging action and have my guy slam him with the stink bomb. I like to imagine it went like this;
Urango: "Hey, fatty! Gimme yer lunch money!"
My Urb: "Actually..*Throws stink bomb* I don't think so!"
Urango: "Urrrghhh...aaaaaaAAArgh! Dang man! I'm outta here!"
What luck I found that thing in there.
A more recent playthrough I had: I kind of forgot about that random homeless guy you can see every so often. He isn't affiliated with any particular group and you can see him dig through those big dumpsters from time to time. I think he's only on Xbox, which is why I bring him up. He wears blue tattered jeans, a collander on his head and a cape with no shirt. No idea of his name. One of my urbz actually had a quick chat with him too.
