i play sims every once in a while, but usualy for a month after the new expansion pac comes out. (It's my mom who loves to play) but what i found really cool is that vacation is coming out so soon after hot date. and my last coment is: why doesn't EA let Aspyr work with them on the games so everyone can have them at the same time?! i mean origionaly The Sims was made on a mac. DAMN EA!!!!!
