 good now.bad later October 3, 2007
I don't like that you have to pay taxes; it was excellent when I first started, but when I got my taxes I was shocked. They were through the roof. It makes some villain come and take away all my stuff. I don't play much anymore. I like that the jobs are mini-games, but I don't like that they speed up every time I get something right. I think the Sims2 is better than this.
 Another Sims game to feed your Sims addiction! July 20, 2007
Reviewed for Big Boss Games by: CRR
The first two titles in the series by EA Games are The Sims and The Sims Bustin' Out, but make way for number three, The Urbz: Sims in the city.
In The Urbz, you guide your Sim through life in nine very diverse culturally different districts, where you have to walk the walk and talk the talk. As in its two predecesors, in The Urbz, you have goals to achieve, bills to pay and promotions to obtain. The differences you'll find in this game are in the jobs you work and clothes you buy, which are district specific, and the other Sims you meet and interact with.
Another difference is that you have to build up your reputation. This is achieved by meeting and befriending as many different Sims as you can and learning their specific social interactions. At the start of the game, you must choose what district to start out in. By completing your goals and building your rep, you unlock other districts to visit and work in.
The main goal is to build yourself up to have the highest rep in the city, so that everyone wants to be your friend. This game is fun and simplistic without being too easy. Plus, after you beat it the first time, you can always go back and play as someone different, giving this game replay potential.
On a scale on 1-10, I give this game an 8.5. Sim-fans should not miss out on The Urbz!

It was a pretty good game. Quite different layout than the other Sims games. My only complaint is that it took forever for everything to load. I assumed it would be like that with a playstation. But there were so many different areas to go to that it really added up.

This game was horrible. The graphics are crapy and the game is slugish, ON A CONSOLE! its like amazon took a s*** in a box and charged you $20 bucks for it. Overall this game isn't worth a pile of cow s***

I bought this game for my 17 year old daughter. She seems to like it. It arrived very quickly, and was exactly what I wanted!
