The Sims Superstar
Sam returns to his arch-nemesis The Sims in search of stardom.
The actual core gameplay has remained the same as it was on the day the first Sim pissed themselves then passed out from sleep deprivation, waking only to cry themselves silly because they hadn't seen any of their mates that afternoon. The Sims has always been about micro-management and for some reason this has appealed to an unprecedented number of people. Maybe it has something to do with peoples urge to have some control over their lives, something that seems increasingly hard to do in this modern world. Or maybe the world is made up of far more anal-retentives than one could ever have feared possible. Well both types should be catered for here as the level of fiddling required to get your Sim to even the lowest rungs of the fame ladder is frankly scary. Not only do you have to keep the little blighters eight basic needs ticking over nicely but you also have to worry about your fame level. To make it into the big league your Sim will have to get the attention of the press, make contacts and friendships with the movers and shakers of the fame treadmill and generally keep up a level of exposure that will ensure that the number of stars representing your fame level keeps on rising. A nightmare of management juggling - think of one of those fat-cats who seem to be a non-executive director of half the private companies in the land. Then combine them with some lanky hippy keeping five flaming torches up in the air at once. This is the kind of work you will have to endure if you really want to see your Sims name up in lights. Just remember that you will receive neither the bloated salary nor the admiration of all passers-by like my two analogous examples. This is by far the hardest of all the myriad of Sims expansions, a challenge to be sure, but is it any fun?
For me, it was fun for about a day, then it became tedious, then downright annoying, and then uninstalled. But I am not the largest fan of the Sims in the first place. It has always been a game I can take in small doses for a few days before I remember once again that this is the most pointless of all the software entertainment out there. Which is saying a lot next to Yoda's Desktop Adventures. If you are a massive fan of the Sims you will no doubt have bought this already. If on the other hand you have played some Sims before and got some passing enjoyment from the whole process without actually giving too much of a crap about what happened to your little computer people then this is probably an expansion pack too far. It really is very hard, making it difficult for the non-obsessive player to get access to much of the new content. So while Sims Superstar is a competently put together game with plenty of new objects and career paths to pursue, its reliance on extreme difficulty shows how far beyond the bounds of good game making the series has been pushed.

Great, just what the world needs - another Sims game.
I agree Jason...sick of addons for this game...then we have to put with The Sims 2 when that comes out.
köö
I really hate the Sims games, they should stop making them they suck!
I don't see why someone who obviously greatly dislikes the Sims and who apparently had better things to do than to write any type of review, is being made to publish a review for this game at all.
Yes, the game is a lot more complicated than the original, but all the little snide remarks are not what someone who is considering purchasing the game needs to read. It's really quite opinionated.
I hope you enjoyed your steak, after ripping apart a game that you had no interest in, in the first place.
You don't like it? Then you don't have to read it...
Seems pretty simple to me
the sims is cool
This game is excellent. Since i'm ugly and will never become a Superstar, i have fun making up i am...
I luuv it!!!
Right, I used to really enjoy the sims, but surely there is some sort of limitation to how many they can make.
This is something like the 987th edition and is really a bit of a flop. Sure, in theory its great, but add up how much money you've wasted on this load of crap - and is it worth it? I know people who have paid £100 on the Sims games and after two weeks, they're bored. The only good thing about these games is seeing what the next sequel will be!
After I install Sims Superstar, I try to start it, but it just won`t play. It saids that I`ve got wrong CD. What should I do? Help, please!
i bought sims game third time because whenever i try to open the game it will be written that cd is copywrighted.even though i have the original version.please do something

What does one have to do in order to become a model
is there a cheat that makes your sim a super star with out all the work, and is there a cheat that raises your sims skill levels like logic, creativity, and all that stuff and is there a cheat that keeps your sim satified or happy all the time
;(
i would really like 2 play a demo of the sims so i can c if i want 2 buy it plz put out a demo
Ok. Here's the thing: some of you people are obsessing over the game. Others, however, are obsessing over hating the game. If you don't want to be obsessed, then shut up. Oh, and it's not that bad of a game. Not the best, but if it helps losers feel good about themselves...
Sims r only for boring people,everyday same old thing.
The sims is just a great idea and a fun game. If you think it has 2 many add ons just look at Half Life, THE greatest game in me opinion. Great games need many addons!!! :-D

No demos have ever been released for the sims (any version) so stop asking for the demos. In the sims all expansions you can become a superstar, by either working the old fashion way or just making a charm. Thats the easiest way. If you sims game doesnt work you need pentium 4 and windows xp for it to work.
I LOVE SIMS
Hmm...Could somebody tell me were I can download Sims Games?? :-)
