YUP! so how did you guys all get ropped into sims in the first place? I really can't remember how it happened to me...I think I played a friends one and got addicted...

Same here, actually. I was at my friend, Danielle's house, and she was determined to make self Sims of all of us. So that's what we did. And I just HAD to have the game after that.

haha, I was on the bus from my one week "wilderness trip" that the eighth graders at my school take (it's a one week camping trip) and somehow the conversation got to the sims 2 and it sounded really fun to me so when I got home I looked up more information online. I found out my grandparents had it for whatever reason (probably for grandkids) so ya, I got hooked.

I went to my cousin's house, and he was playing the game and showing me how he and his dad had, in the game of course, turned his mother into a slave.
I just became intruiged by the game so I got it that very day! I think I did, anyway. I'm sure I did. Bad memory. And it was in 2000. So I'm a proud early-bird.

Haha, his poor mum!
And you got it that day? That's pretty awesome. It took me a while to finally go out and buy it.
But you're lucky that you can say you were there from the start, basically. Makes you special.

It's all thanks to my cousin. Had I not gone to visit him that day, what with me being so young (and never ever playing computer games at all), I doubt I would have discovered Sims as early as I did. I may have even missed out on TS1 completely, who knows? I doubt I would, but I can't predict the alternate future. It makes me feel like going to my cousin now and giving him a big hug and a kiss for ever buying TS1. Although, I don't think he ever played TS2. And I doubt he will play TS3. I don't think he has any interest in the games anymore.

Aww, well that's too bad.
But at least he did his "good deed." Anyhoo, yay for him introducing you!
Re: Hi! - Cassie - 28-05-2008 10:36 PM
I called him today, randomly said 'thanks' and then hung up the phone. He called back all confuzzled. I told him I got the wrong number. He called me a pleb. It had a mild swearword infront of it but no one needs to hear that.

Haha, aww...you poor dear.
That's a bit funny, though. Would have been entertaining, I'm sure.
