I have an urge to play The Sims 2 again. It's been a while and I'm a few expansions behind, but it's one of those games that can grab me for hours. I tend to switch houses every few hours (real-time) to keep things fresh as well as to tell the stories in parallel as much as the game mechanics allow.

Four generations of amazing Slacker action.
Seriously.
I made a couple with the Family aspiration and the Slacker aspiration, had them make lots of babies, and then gave all the kids the slacker career. I had an army of caddies!

why would I ever want to make the sims happy? I only played the first Sims, but I loved just making their lives as miserable as possible... like having only one toilet... completely blocked off. Walling up any neighbors who mistakenly thought it was a nice place to visit.
I remember spending months building one shopping mall on the biggest piece of land available at a friends house. it had 5 restaurants plus a food court, a "movie theater", a gym, a half dozen clothing stores and a few clubs as well as an indoor swimming pool fountain thing. building is the only thing that's fun about that game really
About 5 minutes. Thats usually when I watch the house I spent hours on burn down... I find it very therapeutic watching a Sim burn to death in his giant mansion.
Let's see, it took me about two hours to get the house exactly the way I wanted it, I had it going for half an hour more... and it crashed. I stopped playing after that, I still design houses for my sis occassionally though.
Hmmm... I used to collect sims gravestones, death by drowning, death by starvation, what ever it took, I'd have myself a new gravestone. Stupid neighbours, they never learned.
However it longs to get them through Uni in Sims 2 uni.
Either that or how it takes to enter the move all cheat then put them in a doorless room with a fire. >:]

The second my Sim started wetting himself, I knew I had to end it all.
They have ridiculous needs that Im not willing to fulfill.
How is it that I could play that game for 5-6 hours without needing the toilet, but my Sim couldnt go 30 seconds without wetting himself.

You guys are all sick bastards...and so am I. I can keep a Sim happy nearly indefinitely, but that's usually because I make one poor guy that's my personal punching bag. I'll experiment with him, take what I learned, and use it on the good Sims. He was a miserable little guy, but it was for the good of the people. >
About ten minutes or so. I got tired of trying to keep them happy, so I put in the cheat-code for tons of money and bought a bunch of flammable objects and waited for them to catch themselves on fire.
That was great.
That was great.
I don't really know, I haven't had that many families die on me in Sims. I just started with one or two characters and kept them happy and learning enough to get promoted all the time and then when I had much more money than I knew what to do with, I got bored and started another. Or stopped playing it for a while...
i made a Graveyard one time in the Sims 1, a small pool, sell the ladder while a Family of 8 is there, and one by one letting em drown, then i made the Crypt Keeper
I always say that I'm gonna create a massive family line and have loads of generations... then I get bored after the first.
I think I kept about ten generations happy, then I grew tired of the them and ruined their lives... I never found the sims 2 that difficult unless there were several small children in one house and the family has little money. I think it's a great game, but too easy to play over a long period of time.
