Default Favourite Sims 1 expansion.

For me it was vacation. I loved going on holiday with my sims, what about you?

My favourite was Makin' Magic.

Mine was Makin' Magic or Superstar since I never managed to get what you had to do properly. It was fun!

My favourite was Makin' Magic, the most practical though was Hot Date.

I'd have to say Unleashed, I think. The new larger neighbourhoods were pretty cool.

Didn't really like Makin' Magic though.

I didn't like Livin' It Up or House Party. They hardly added anything.

My favourite was Unleashed, followed very closely by Makin' Magic.

Makin' Magic got the most of my time, I think.

I bought them all! I still have them all!

Absolute favourite was Makin' Magic as it felt like having a new game as well as still having the old game and it was engaging enough to keep me entertained until the release of The Sims 2.

Superstar is a close second though. I loved Alfred The Butler and all the new objects and interactions. Did anybody ever get a 5 star celebrity? I never could - it was too hard for me!

Unleashed and Livin' It Up brought 5 new jobs each though, that was cool. Hot Date was cool because it introduced Downtown and the concept of Townies. Townies .

I have the sims and the sims livin it up. probklem is though, I can't play sims livein' it up.
after I installed it, I went to play it. But when I took the disk out, i saw thin layers of steam coming off the disk. I haven't played it since. anyone got any idea why the game didn't work?

My bro wants the sims makin magic, but We can't find it anywhere.
Ithink it is available in Game, but they might have replaced those with new ones like sims seasdons or the others.

I liked Alfred too, it's a pity we've not had the butler back in The sims 2 yet.

I did manage a 4 star sim once, I think it only lasted for several days as they would lose fame if you didn't go in to studio town everyday, it was fun while it lasted though.

If you don't mind ordering on line, you can find it at Amazon, Play.com or Game to name a few places.

However, if you are also wanting to to replace your Livin' it Up, you may be better off just getting the complete collection as it's quite cheap now as well. You can find it here on Game but check other places too.

I've been meaning to replace Livin' It Up. I lost my original disk... I saw it for £3 somewhere, I think it was Tesco or Woolworths (in store).

I want the spiral staircases back from TS1.
