HTGYG Show #4 [25:23m]: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download

Hi everyone! I wanted to do a review of one of my favorite computer games for you, and it turned into a whole episode! I discuss The Sims 2, highlight all of its expansion packs and stuff packs, and explain custom content. I wrap it all up by playing a promo for The Babylon Podcast, where I joined an all-girl discussion about Episode 1 of Season 4 of Babylon 5.

Here is a list of some of my favorite sites for downloading custom content for The Sims 2:

Mod the Sims 2 - Great clothing, hair, objects, and reliable game modification, plus the best tutorials.
All About Style - Beautiful clothes, very detailed meshes, lots of historical costumes.
Bines Sims Revue - A daily listing of updated sites - a must-have if you love downloading content!
Piggi’s Sims -A wonderful source of game and custom mesh furniture and object recolors.
The Sims Resource -Huge site with free and pay clothing, genetics, objects, furniture, and tutorials.

If you love controlling your own little world, then The Sims 2 is for you! Find it wherever you find your video games!
