I don't understand why it's rated 16+. Geesh, some things kids watch on TV these days is WAY worse than playing Sims 2. There is some mild sexy-stuff that happens, but the way the programmers made it, it just looks like the Sims are having a tickle fight. This game allows the players to be open, creative, and it even makes them think about their own life, goals, and dreams. It's a good way to introduce responsibility, time management, and social skills in a fun, cartoonist way. Anyways, this is an awesome game, and I LOVE it! Anybody who is mature enough to handle the Sims's "tickle fights" can SOOOO play this game!!!!

I think sims 2 is a fun game that sparks the mind. I have fun running my own restaurant with the family I made. I even made my best friends family who own their own car dealership.

I LOVEEEEE sim games!Can you say AWESOME!Everytime I turn on the sims 2 I cant turn my head away!THe only things I want for christmas are pets and open for buisness!WOO-HOO

im only 10 and i think this game is raw! yes my big brother does stalk me on teen rated games but i be like so! my daddy buys them for me! i think people my age or older can play the sims and they really dont show sexual realtionship. i want that game so badly! well then bye bye got some home-work to do!

It was a rip-off!

I really like this game. It may not be "okay" with your friends (if you're in a highschool with people like my friends). Still, the house design thing is really good, the mod friendliness is awesome. I mean, this is definately recommended for any kid, really should be 11+. There is no real sexual content unless cheats are used. Plus with some parental control, (not total control, but some explanation), this is an amazing game for any kid.

the sims open for buisness (soz about the spelling) game is good for kids to relax and come home from school ond relax for a couple fo hours

these are the sims games i have and i reccomend them all: The sims PS2 the sims bustin out PS2 the sims 2 PS2 the sims 2PC The sims open for bussiness PC Forget the list i reccomend them all thesims ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!! a few more words to say: play it!

I LOVE THIS GAME!!!!!! I recomend all the sims games to you. sims, sims unleashed, sims vacation, sims hot date, sims superstar, sims makin magic, sims 2, sims 2 university, sims 2 nightlife, sims 2 open for business, and im sure there are more. And i really don't see how dying is violent! I mean it's just a thing that happens in real life and everyone even sims die! big deal!Also when they die its not like there all bloody and coughing and stuff the grim reaper comes and talks on his cell phone. Also kids my age can easily play if there parents aren't all like "oh its too violent and inopropriet" even though its not. I mean 10 11 12 year olds know that people have sex. we dont buy the story about the stork! anyways this game ROX!!

Soms opern for buisness is a very good expansion pack, but the T for teens rating is what it deserves. Sims can have sex in bed or a hottub, but nothing is shown. The sims can get into fights, but it is a cartoon type fight where only a dust cloud is shown. Since sims talk in sim language, they could be talking about who knows what and we won't know. Sims can get drinks at a bar, though, but don't get drunk. However, sims can go out to a store and buy other Maxis/EA games, so it sort of advertises other games. The graphics are amazing on this game!

i could care less

I love this game. I think it's fun to be in control with the sims lives. And if any parents are reading this than I also think it can help kids understand what dicisons to make in life. Such as picking the right job who to go out with or don't walk away from the oven when cooking something. I seriously love this game and I think it deserves more than 3 stars!
