Sorry this is overdue. I just now found this thread. I'm the Grim Reaper *plays dramatic music* fear me.
OK so not funny.
I'm a female in my late 20's and I've been playing The Sims games since the original The Sims way back when, when it was only on PC with I think Bob and Betty Newbie. I also had Living Large, Hot Date, Unleashed, and Vacation and I think that's it. Living Large was my favorite back in the day.
I moved up a little, moving onto The Sims Bustin Out for PS2 and I tried The Sims 2 for PS2 but it didn't really work out for me. I tried The Sims 2 for PC and it kept making my computer crash.
I currently have The Sims 3: Pets for PS3. I actually have the limited edition but my PS3 isn't hooked up to the internet so I can't dowload the special pets. I'm fine with that since the game was only $50 instead of $60. I'm really enjoying this game and I know from now on all my Sims games will be console since it's so much easier to play than PC.
I googled to find this forum and checked it out and it seems like a really nice place to be. I mainly joined to find out how you can be friends with the grim reaper in the sims 3 pets (for PS3), because I want him as a housemate to control him. I love creating goth sims and goth mansions (to the best of my ability). I also try to create vampire sims as best as I can since they don't make nightlife for console yet. I guess there really isn't much of a difference between vampire sims (with no fangs) and goth sims on the console.
Anyway, so far I've been sticking to the console part of the forum for The Sims 3 since that's what I own. I feel like I'd be out of my league if I stepped anywhere else because I don't own the games past the sims 3 pets.
I'm looking forward to meeting people here and discussing The Sims.
