I was flipping through the channels and caught a bit of MTV2. What hooked me were these computer generated characters--The Sims--doing a music video of "Hey Ya!" It was pretty cool. IMO the choreography (not as fluid as the real thing, but hey, it's virtual reality) in the computer generated video was funkier than Andre 3000s!

Next was a computer generated version of Big Boi's "I Like the Way You Move."

I'm not familiar with gaming these days (I'm from the Asteroids era) so I'm clueless about the Sims. But their music videos were fun to watch.

I just started playing The Sims this weekend.

If you have an addictive personality, stay far away from this game.

I like it, too. It's pretty enjoyable, I think. The only problem is that you end up doing the same routine over and over again - just like in real life lol Shower, use the toilet, eat, go to work, come home, eat, sleep.

I have all the Sims! I don't have "Making Magic" or "Bustin Out" yet. Sometimes I can't keep up

Oh, yeah. Addictive is the word. I've been playing since this time last year and I've got about 50 families. . .

50 families ain't got nothing on me!

I bought the Sims when it first came out, got addicted to it for about a year and forced myself to uninstall it. I recently found it hidden in my closet, and reinstalled it. BAD idea.

it's very addictive. i was addicted to the original "Sim City" for 2 years, and so i never got any of the ones that came after, for fear of my ass fusing to the computer chair
