The Sims Bustin’ Out Review (Playstation 2)

Since I’m a big fan of the SIMs, games I was extremely excited about having the opportunity to play the N-Gage version of SIMS Bustin’ Out published by Electronic Arts. Bustin’ Out had many of the same features as its various pc counterparts, including, but not limited to, your character’s needs, a variety of job opportunities, and interaction with other SIMs.

This game starts out just like all of the other SIMsgames, with creating your character. Unfortunately this is an area in which the game is a bit limited. What it comes down to is that you get to choose the color of your outfit. There’s not much else to do in this area, other than choose your sex, skin tone, hair style and personality type. After you’re through with this, the fun begins.

You’re Sims haracter has decided to stay with his/her Uncle Hayseed for the summer in SimValley. Uncle Hayseed informs you that you’ll be living in the barn for the summer. Lucky you! This is where the game begins to differ from the usual Sims games, and you receive your first mission: “moving into the barn”. There are five sets, of six missions. Each mission includes 2–5 goals. You can have several missions going at once, or sometimes you’ll have to complete all your missions before a new one is given.
