Doesn't work. Oh, the music gets softer, but it still drowns out most
conversation. Unless I turn the music off altogether, which I don't
really want to do. The sims look silly enough when they dance WITH
music. LOL

I think with the amount of programming involved if everything from the first
set was in the Sims 2 all along it would have been cost prohibitive. I have
nothing against Maxis making a profit as long as the products are reasonably
priced and well supported and I don't have any big issues with that at the
moment.
Two games I bought recently have third party tech support and getting an
answer for them is next to impossible making me appreciate Maxis for now.

Yes, but it wouldn`t sell much, since nobody had the computer power to run
Sims 2 until a year or so befor it came out.... It`s only these last 2
years people have started to upgrade computers to the level where they can
actually run games like sims 2. At least the amount of people needed to
make Sims 2 a success...
