User Reviews: The Sims 2: Nightlife
Great!
Pros: Great features!
Cons: Can (or at least my copy) can freeze briefly
This is a great game! This expansion pack is one of the best. My copy (I'm not sure if it's all of the copies) can freeze from 3 seconds to about 30 seconds. You have to be patient with this game. And, trust me, this game is very addicting. Overall, this game is very good.
Was this review helpful? Yes - NoOne my fave expansions ever made for any sims.
Pros: Its alotta fun
Cons: sometimes you gotta reinstall the whole game and install everything with it. but no biggies just back up the ea folder and such and no lost neighborhoods.
I really liked the addition of the downtown area, the cars, The nice decor, the furnishings. The club life is real fun for game, shopping areas downtown I really liked those. My favorite part of the game though is all the vampire stuff. I also like the ability to now add your sims to a cemetary off the lot I think it came with this pak or uni not sure but being able to move a gravemarker off a lot and actually set up a downtown memorial or one in the community is cool. Its a over all great pack.

Pros: New perspective on life at night, vampires and cars
Cons: no cons
The Sims 2 Nightlife takes Sims into the night to explore all of their favorite after-dark activities. Players can either head out and discover their love lives or have a crazy night out with friends. With the new dating gameplay, players will see if their Sims have chemistry with others which will determine their romantic fate. The newest addition to the game includes the brand new pleasure seeker aspiration allowing players to explore a life filled with unforgettable dates, endless nights of dancing and fine dining.
The bulk of this expansion pack deals with your experiences in a new area of the game called Downtown, a place filled with recreational activities that are perfect for testing out the brand new 'pleasure' life aspiration. Once Downtown, your Sims can choose from a variety activities. They can go clubbing, hang out in a lounge, dine out in a fancy restaurant or diner, go for a walk in the park or hit the bowling alley...
Sims can now purchase their very own vehicles providing they have a driveway attached to their house in which to park it on.There are 5 types of car to choose from each differing in price and overall style. There are also a number of different colours to play with on each car, the greased lightning effect sports car with its flaming paintwork was a favourite of mine.
The real changes this expansion brings to the game are in its new dating system. Sims now come equipped with Turn ons and Turn Offs which you can choose for them as soon as they become adults. These can include fitness, make-up, specific hair colour... and Sims with these turn ons/offs will automatically be more attracted to other Sims fitting the bill.Helping along the new dating system is the ability to actually invite Sims on dates, ideally in the new Downtown area which features an array of new community lots including bowling alleys, nightclubs, coffee houses, parks and restaurants.Once the date starts you are given a Date Meter that fills or empties depending on how well the date is going.
And then we come to vampires, why Maxis decided to add these ghoulish fiends to our innocent Sims neighbourhoods is a mystery but its an original, if not odd touch to the game. Vampires can usually be found downtown during the darkness hours and can attack other Sims, biting them and turning them into blood sucking monsters!
All in all, The Sims 2 Nightlife fills the gap in The Sims 2 that we never realised existed up until now. It's worth having and adds a load of new features to stretch the games fun-life out that little bit further!Was this review helpful? Yes - Nothis is a great game
Pros: good
Cons: best

Was this review helpful? Yes - NoThey can DRIVE!
Pros: Excellent add-on to an already great game, expanded game play options, dating, and best of all your sims have finally passed their driver's license exams!
Cons: It's an expansion pack. My system has trouble with them. I wind up having to uninstall everything and reinstall each pack one by one again. Your mileage may vary, good luck, and don't forget to back up before installing!
I expected another "Sims:Hot Date". I got so much more. Mrs. Crumplebottom has returned, along with scores of new characters, or vampires if you prefer... I don't quite get the vampire thing, but reading the boards at the Sims 2 website, a lot of other people enjoy them. It is entirely possible to ignore the fact they're there and play on with the other new features, which is exactly what I do.
Possibly the best thing to ever happen to our sims is included with this expansion pack, cars. We asked for them and we have finally got them. I still get a thrill from sending a sim to his car and watching him drive off the lot to meet up with a date downtown.
As mentioned in the cons, it is entirely possible to have trouble installing the game. Make sure you back up your Sims 2 folder in your documents before installing.Was this review helpful? Yes - NoI love the Nightlife
Pros: everything
Cons: havent found any
Wow the best expansion pack for any sims game after Making Magic. I love that my sims finally get to have and drive cars, and I love the way they interact now with attraction and dating. More fun is the vampires. Love watching them run at dawn for their crypts.
