“Relatively normal”, emphasis on the “relatively” (Image: EA)īut the mainstream PC games, The Sims 1-4, are relatively normal, all things told. In the Sims games, the stage is set for whatever weird story you want to tell, and all the tools are laid out ready for you. In The Sims 3, I had a family that was torn apart when the husband cheated on his wife with some floozy he met in France - but the wife got her revenge by running off with the butler. While playing The Sims 2 in my parents’ spare room, I attempted to recreate the Olympians from Ancient Greek myth, before giving up in a panic because of just how much incest was required. Life most people, I would spend hours and hours building massive, hideous rectangles and filling them with storylines ripped right from a soap opera, except with more pool ladder-related deaths than usual.

I was on the bandwagon from day one, ever since meeting the tutorial family, Bob and Betty Newbie, and finding out that they could make a baby by kissing back-and-forth for hours. I’ve always loved house-building, life-simulating game The Sims.
