This game has to be good. The SIMS for the PS2 and XBox was great. Now you can get out and explore other places?!?!? This sounds like an awsome game!!!!

When "The Sims" first came out for Xbox, I really didn't like it compared to the computer version. But they have greatly improved with "Bustin Out". Better graphics, the characters are more fun to make, you get to leave the house and the 2 player mode that lets you actually play the game with someone else at the house that you make was a brilliant idea compared to the "completeing the tasks first" option of multiplaying in the first Sims game.

So yeah, this game will having you sitting in front of your tv screen for hours.

Great But There Is Still Room For Improvement!

This is a great game but of course there is still room for improvement. First, I was hoping for the ability to make an upstairs portion of a house. Not that this is vital but it would've been nice. Though I must say that the single player or "bustin' out" portion of the game is more fun than it was on the first sims console game even though it's basically the same thing. The animation and graphics of the xbox truly make this game more of a pleasure to play. Damn those pixels! I would've been great if you had the option of removing the pixels for when the sims are nude.

This game sucks

This is a very very addictive game!
Warning don't buy this game if you want to live a normal life.
The sound is excellent the social interactions and interface is excellent the job tittle are great I mean it's truly a good game for those who are into Simulations. The only problem with the game is that to advance in your career you have to gain points, for example say if you choice to be a mad scientist then you have to play chess to get your logic meter up to the points required in order to get promoted. Now this would be okay except you are required to make friends also!? I chose the movie star career path and to be a Movie Mongrul i need to mantain 10 friendships and gain points in chrisma and work out and manage my other things such as sleep, fun and social. This combination makes the game rather annoying and tedious. What's even worse these friendships they decrease over time! I think I'm going to write Maxis about this in the hope that they create a patch.
My other concern is what's with all the lock stuff!!! I want to play the Sims not have to try to beat it to unlock all the crap that shouldn't be locked!! Whoever's idea this was should slap himself! Everyone at Maxis should! BECAUSE THIS MAKE THE GAME ANNOYING INSTEAD OF FUN! I hate it when game companies do this! WTF! it's like Maxis's was like lets lock everything! That will really drag the game on and on by making you play all the career paths! For this alone I took one star away! Thanks Maxis for making me waste my time having to unlock half the F**king game!
Here is a tip: when you first start the game your living with your mother While your living there Your energy meter doesn't decrease past half. Plus you don't need a job to support yourself. So what i did was increase all my stats to Ten it takes at least 2 1/2 hours but that's the only way your gonna be able to beat the game because then all you will have to do is mantain those annoying friendships.

Best Xbox Game Ever!

This game is incrediable. The graphics [are great]. All the new stuff you can do,sim customizing. This game is 5 stars all the way. This game is by far the best sim game out their. I know because I have five of the computer ones. And after playing the first sims game for xbox I know the second one is only going to be 2x the more fun and intertaining.So buy this game.

And in the words of a sim: This whoaw is fredishay.

Great Game

This game is fun to play and watch! It is a step up from the first Sims and the extra options are great. You can work your way up in a career, find a new job and go back to your other career without losing your position. I like the different challenges in the different houses, it gives something extra to the game other than going to work and skill building. I havent' even played on the free play option yet. This game will be played for a long time to come. I have reccommended to several friends who are just as happy with it as I am. I great change from all the violent games out there!

Great Game

The Sims Bustin Out is a awsome game. Its alot like the first one except now you can go to many diffrent places like a club, gym,army base and many others. The free play is very fun and the get a life can get challenging. This game has also added a ton of new furnisher and other house things to the game like they have a train set a high dive and the sims can do flips off the high dive. You can also do new things like tell other sims to pull your finger or you can towel snap them. The only downside to this game is you cant drive the cars they just show the sims on the car driving. You also cant build two story houses like in the computer version. This is a GREAT game.

2nd only to Halo

This is the best game ever (other than Halo)!!! I spent hours playing ths game. It will keep you entertained forever. Unlike other games, once you beat this, you can play free mode, or keep playing in Bustin Out mode. You will never want to put this game down!
