SIXTEEN PLUS! are you KIDDING me??? it's not THAT bad most kids have "the talk" by the time they're twelve! the worst thing they actually SHOW is kissing! I've been playing the SIMS since i was ten it is not very innapropriate. At all. It teaches you ways to deal with life as an adult. Also, you can make movies for yourself! how cool is that! you can even do a 'sims next top model' where you take pics of your sims! Under ten, don't play or have a parent preview it first. Over that, you should be fine. Caution to parents: when sims die, the image can be a little scary for young kids. The Grim Reaper comes and takes them away, but it looks very creepy.
Now I love the sims so I may be a little favorable but this version has everything the regular game plus the life of a student. One example is it has four more careers that only can come from college just like some jobs require a degree in real life. So the usual good stuff of the Sims plus the new bonus is definetly a game to look out for.
i really like this game i dont know why pepole think its bad. sure there is woohoo and stuff like that but these things happen in real life to so stop saying its bad and actully play it.
I enjoy playing this game, but i really do think that you should be at least 12 to be playing. This game shows you what college is like and what you really would experience, like living in dorms, doing term papers, hanging with friends, buying everything yourself, etc.
I think it's ON 12+, iffy 9-12, and off for 9 and under.
Why is there reviews saying it's for older kids, no teens allowed?!? 16+ is near the M for Mature rating!
