Beloved games we hate

PC Feature | The Sims 2

Gamers are a diverse and extremely opinionated bunch. If you love something with all your heart and soul, we guarantee you that someone else hates it with an equal amount of passion. Chances are good, in fact, that the person who despises your precious favorite is a person you know, like or even trust. Your favorite GamesRadar editor, for example… ... » Read More

Box Art F'ups

PC Feature | The Sims 2

Derp! Ready the eBay accounts, cause that company that prints game box art - Acme Video Game Box Art Co. Inc. Ltd., we believe they’re called - pulled a gargantuan boner and misprinted a shitload of our favorite titles. We don’t mean to call them out, but we can’t allow the public to be misled. ... » Read More

GamesRadar Jackass

PC Feature | The Sims 2

There comes a time in many games where the expected method of play becomes a bit too expected. It's when you're on this cusp of boredom that you realize that the greatest gift gaming has given us is the ability to plough your own way - to refuse to enter the test chamber just to see if you get in trouble. So join us as we subvert the basic concepts of gameplay by generally screwing around in games, whether through harassing NPCs, torturing virtual people or organizing naked foot races in ... » Read More

The Professionals - Microwaves

PC Feature | The Sims 2

If you spent your childhood in fear, after your mother told you that looking at the food going around on the platform would make your eyes fall out, youre not alone. John Bows, a Technology Development Manager, knows all about microwaves - about the “instantaneous disruption of the electrical signals in the brain, causing loss of gross motor function,” and the “inevitable long-term loss of brain function as well as changed behavior patterns.” And it turns out that your ... » Read More

The Top 7... Girl-on-girl kisses

PC Feature | The Sims 2

What's hotter than watching a cute princess kiss a fat, middle-aged plumber? Well, anything really, but given the headline above, the answer should be obvious: watching a cute princess kiss another cute princess. It's sexy, it's vaguely taboo and it's pleasantly devoid of bristling mustaches and lingering sewage odors. It's much more common to see girl-on-girl kisses in other media, but it happens in games more often than you'd think. To prove it to you, we've collected the very best ones and ... » Read More

The Sims Builders

PC Feature | The Sims 2

For some players, The Sims' Build Mode is an entire game. In fact, for a special few - who we like to call builders - it's the only game. It's a real eye-opening experience for us who make this game to see how far the systems we create can be pushed. It's also a testament to the ingenuity, not to mention the persistence, of the builders out there who have a vision and use Build Mode to realize that vision. It would be simply impossible to talk about all the mind-blowingly cool buildings that ... » Read More

The Sims 2: Inside the mind of Will Wright

PC Feature | The Sims 2

We can barely keep up. Will is on a roll, from the very moment we meet him, he's off, chatting away, explaining the design decisions that makes The Sims 2 one of the finest games we've played. And, 'click'... we're recording every word...What do you do in The Sims? What do you do when you're playing it? That depends. Sometimes I'll recreate strange versions of real people. I did a version of Arnold Schwarzenegger in the game, but I called him Arnold Oppelganger and I made him a yacht, using ... » Read More
