Editorial Reviews:

Your Sims are moving into a brand-new apartment, and their lives will never be the same! Adventure, fun, and drama await them as they meet new people and explore their new neighbourhood. Will they take their kids to the local playground, mingle in coffee shops, or hit the park to learn from the breakdancers? Close quarters mean new opportunities-move in with compatible roomies for a thriving social life, advance your career with the right social network, or find true love just down the hall. Whether they live in artsy converted lofts, the ultimate studio bachelor pads, or luxury apartments with their own butler, your Sims will experience all of the excitement of apartment life!

Summary: School's out
Comment: This is a great addition to the Sims 2, but has anyone noticed that if you have children living in the apartment blocks the school bus doesn't come for them? I also can't seem to be able to build my own apartment blocks which is a bit disappointing. Anyone know any different?

Summary: Rubbish- the computer won't recognise it.
Comment: Despite having a dvd drive on my computer, and all the other previous expansions and stuff packs working fine, this is not recognised by my computer at all and refuses to load etc.

I gather that this is not a unique problem, looking at some message boards so please be careful when buying. It's been a complete waste of money.

Summary: oh my god i love it!!!!
Comment: Buy this game you wont be disapointed!!! i love it so much it will probley be one of the last expansion packs for the sims 2 as THE SIMS 3 IS OUT 20TH FEBUARY 2009 and i cant wait. getting back to the game lol its great you have a selection for apartments to out in your own neighbourhood or move into belladonna cove ( new neighbourhood) you pay rent on your apartment and have a landlord which carrys out all repairs gets rid of and vermin lol and cleans all the communal areas. You can go into the build menu and clear the apartment out apart from the bathroom and kitchen and you will find the rents lower and then you can put all your own things in it. You cant build your own apartment block or move walls doors or windows in a pre built lot. its great for kid sims as thes new playground items like a roundabout slide and climbing frame tree house thing. New stuff for your apartment like a pull down bed incase your apartments really small to save space a huge cool plasma tv dressing tables and much more. You can have room mates to help pay the rent if you keep them happy they become your best freinds and if not they may drve you mad ( you cant control your room mate but can see how they are feeling what job they have what they want etc. which is good. And if you cant stand them you can kick them out and get another or live alone. New hairs styles for the adult sims which are nice a few new clothes. I think i have covered everything. This games really good and i would defo recommend buying it as you wont be disapointed at all. And it will keep you ocupied until 20th febuary 09 when sims 3 comes to stores. Happy apartment living guys !!!! laura xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Summary: One Of The Best EXP for the Sims 2
Comment: Like The Sims 2 Seasons, this expanision has a major impact on the game, whereas packs like Pets only enhance the experience. I've had this pack for a couple of days and I'm hooked. The Sims 2 tends to slow down after a while and this just totally refreshed it. The apartments are cleverly designed and great fun to customize! Now your sims have neighbours who they can interact with and form strong relationships.

Kick start your sims apartmenting lives with a swanky pad, or go budget and have your sims work their way up.
One of the best aspects of the pack is raising the Sim children in an apartment, they make tons of friends and have fun in the playground.

This game is auesome, it offers a variety of funky clothes and a few wicked hairstyles along with dozens of new objects and a whole new take on the game.

One point, the Sims 3 is coming out in April next year, this could be one of the last ever exp for the Sims 2. Buy It!
