:scratch:  I'm slightly confused about this... $19.90 for this game?  The title is slightly misleading, too, since at first I thought it was another add-on to the base game, or something like the special "The Urbz" game rack the official site had... but it turns out this is a completely separate game altogether.  I'm sure if it was just a plain old online game without sims' faces plastered on "bumpers" (...even with its 140 levels), it'd make out just fine with me.  But it's just another game with "Sims" written all over it (by EA, mind you) just to make a buck IMHO. :roll:  

I might try the demo out, though... looks slightly interesting, but like I said, it seems like another gimmick to draw The Sims fans into buying it.  :dontknow:  What do you guys and gals think about it?

I played the demo, it's quite fun but its not got much to do with the sims, except it has sims plastered all over it and sim pictures on the bumpers. Not worth paying for imo.

It's alright, nothing to do with sims other than the fact they put their faces on the little circle things. I wouldn't pay that kind of money/ any kind of money for a game like that anyways...

However I noticed they used CC that some of the creators made.... which is interesting... and I'm wondering if they got credited or something.

I play pogo in my spare time, so I knew what it was when EA advertised it. I don't pay for download games, figure my yearly contribution is enough! I like alot of the other games in pogo and chat with alot of people there.

I belong to Pogo also, Pogo is owned by EA. They're always promoting something over there. I used to live on Pogo playing all the games. Till the Sims, but I still like going over there and playing a few games for relaxation. A couple years ago they had a little Sims Christmas game. I forget what it was. Then they had a Pet game based on Sims Pets, I never bought either of them.
