This is one of my favorite Sims games! Its so unique!!!

While it's not the best game I've ever played I do enjoy it for the feeling of starting from nothing and becoming the most popular sim in the city. I like games like that, the kind of progression of it. I almost always start from the Underground, Goth/Punk/Metal area. Sometimes I'll go from the Rooftop Beach area, but more often than not it's the subway place. The music is pretty catchy in all areas, but I do wish they didn't bother putting in The Black Eyed Peas. I was never a fan of them, so I always just do a quick visit to get the objectives done, then hop off somewhere less irritating.Aside from that, I enjoy it's charm.

It actually influenced my view on many things so thats why I love, also the opening scene is like the best in any sims game (*˘︶˘*)

Well my urb got stuck in the elevator in Blankwood Towers. Not "Stuck" as in the elevator stopped, but a glitch prevented him from leaving. His needs kept dropping and he kept passing out and getting revived but couldn't leave lmao.

This game is easily one of the best in the entire Sims franchise. I adore it.

I don't know, I never got into The Urbz quite like Bustin' Out or The Sims 1 for console. I remember being so excited to get The Urbz because the marketing made me think it was open world lol

I had this on GameCube, GameBoy Advance AND DS. I did not like the GameCube version but I loved the other 2. I'm trying to find a Nintendo GBA/SP/Micro, DS, DS Lite, or DSi/DSiXL to play the GBA version. There were slight differences between the GBA and DS version.

It has the best sims art style in my opinion, one of my favourite games.

I miss the underground/goth scene in this game sooooo much! I really wish I still had this game or that they would reboot it or something. I still remember the first time my urb used the piercing machine I almost died from laughter....oh all the sweet memories :smile:

It was pretty fun and realistic. I played as a teen who recently left home and had my first apartment, and would plan shopping trips and hang out with friends.

I have this game for the gameboy and I still play it! (Though I'd love to try the other version since it's supposed to be better)

I had to drop by this thread - i LOVED the URBZ! Though I mostly played this on NDS. I think my fave mini game was the squeegie one.
