Greetings, long time lurker, first time poster.
Been gaming my whole life and have played pretty much ever Maxis game when new, going back to the original SimCity. I enjoy The Sims in spurts between other games, though my wife is a much more regular player. I have a bad habit of spending far more time in build mode than live mode and an embarrassing amount of time in Create a Style. Currently enjoying Island Paradise in a houseboat with two cats, looking for love under water, and managing a shoddy little resort.
