What can I say about the Sims which has not been said a million times before.
The origional installment of the sims (and all of it's add-ons) must be one of the most sucessfull games of all time and that just about says it all.
This game allows you to play got with the lives of a group of little sims, your job is to build them a house, get them a job and make sure they don't starve to death (unless you want them to!) after that it's up to you. You can nurish your little family to ensure they prosper. You can leave them to their own devices and see how long they servive or you can think of ever more cruel and humilliating was to bring them to and early grave!
I would reccomend this game to absolutly anyone!
10/10

I am thoroughly enjoying using this to teach myself finnish and am surprising myself at how quickly I can pick up the words and remember them. If only I had had something like this when doing french at school! This is only for beginners though so for more complicated phrases etc and grammar you also need to purchase a good dictionary and grammar book.

The video is fairly short so, although it was fun, I didnt learn alot from it.
There is another section on the CD-rom for learning basic practical french (for getting around france etc). There is no video, only text and speech. I found this section unstimulating and boring, so now i ... Read More:
