When's the last time you ran Sims 1?

;D I never got around to installing Superstar or Makin' Magic (they're sitting on a shelf somewhere). Maybe someday...
Ancient Sim:
I haven't played it since I got TS2 either, although I can't anyway as it's on my old pc which isn't connected up at the moment. I do miss certain aspects of it, particuarly Makin' Magic which I really enjoyed, not to mention quite a few of my Sims. I used the program that changed children to teens, then to adults (can't remember the name of it now) so mine did age up to a point. I also had far better 'adult stuff' (ahem) on TS1, which I admit I would like on TS2. In fact, there were several things I had like that which in many ways were more advanced than what is available for TS2. Hopefully when the animations side of things is fully cracked, that won't be the case anymore.

I haven't played for a year but it is still installed and i have all my old downloads as well. I did fire it up by mistake this spring (hit Sims1 shortcut instead of Sims2) and I was too amazed how primitive everything was. And I really missed not being able to go super close to their faces.
Lynda:
I bought a Sims 1 Pack including house party and hot date for my iBook a while back to satisfy my sim cravings when my husband was using the PC and I couldn't play TS2. (Unfortunately my iBook isn't good enough for the Mac version of TS2 - Bleh!) I immediately remembered why I stopped playing TS1 long, long ago.
Stiff walks, frozen faces, impossible to maintain relationships, etc. In my opinion, the only thing tolerable about TS1 anymore is its design aspect. If I enjoyed building houses and didn't have access to TS2, TS1 might give me a quick fix.
Makin' Magic was the only expansion I never had.
I really should get TS1 off my iBook so I'm not tempted to load it up again. It's better to have fond memories of TS1 than realize how inferior it is compared to TS2.

The last time I booted up The Sims was December 2003, but the last time I played properly was September 2003, when I installed Superstar and my game ground to a halt.
Yeah, and then I managed to stay un-addicted until April 2005, when we got a computer capable of running TS2 :-[ *mumble*. I tried the console versions of The Sims, but they were awful for me, with my poor ability to see 3D on a screen. I'm surprised I do ok with the PC version of TS2, but I think the graphics are vastly superior to either the PS2 or GameCube versions. Also, a mouse is much easier to use to rotate views than the console controllers.
