Description

Toga party, anyone? Now your Sims can do that and more with The Sims: House Party Expansion Pack, which makes it easier than ever for characters from The Sims to make friends and quickly rise to the top ranks of their professions.

They'll need all the extra money they make from promotions to pay for all the cool goodies included in this expansion. Party themes range from Wild West campfire cookouts to Hawaiian luaus and room-shaking raves, with plenty of objects provided to keep guests entertained. There's a costume trunk to guarantee everyone will be dressed for the occasion, and it's even possible to hire a caterer to keep the food and drink flowing. If you're really lucky, a famous star may pop in for a guest appearance. Every party is packed with surprises, and the inclusion of extra neighborhoods ensures there's always a bash to plan. This is one expansion that no fan of The Sims should be without. --T. Byrl Baker

Pros:

  • More than 100 new objects and characters
  • Guaranteed social interactions can really help a Sim's career
  • Great music and fun themes
  • Plenty of surprises
Cons:
  • Takes time away from real parties

Let's parrr-tay!

Party on!

I haven't played "House Party" that much yet. It was a hassle trying to install this game. I had to send the game disc to Aspyr to get me a new version because it wouldn't install.

Last night, I spent around 6 hours building a new house with House Party. In this game, you get 100+ new objects, larger variety of floors and walls, new characters and skins, and 3 new neighborhoods (8 in total (80 lots)). With how much I've played, I like it. A new staircase in HP is a teleporter that teleports you to the second or first floor. It's cool. Another cool thing about The Sims is that you can add your own mp3s to the game, so then your sims can "rock [their] body" to the "music."

Sims gone wild!!!

The sims is a great game but with x-packs(Like house party) it's better.House party has many new features for example the regular things like wall paper, floor tiles ,and new fences.But they have some uncommen things such as a recycled pay phone(garenteed to be disease and germ free)There is also light up dance floors and a hula girl lamp that really hulas! You can also call your niehbours(If you have niehbours) and have a house party(duh!) You can style your house to be a hawien louaw or even a texan roadio complete with a mechical bull! There is all so a visiting mime(much like the sad clown in livin' large)and special celeberty guest Drew Carry. Oh yeah I almost forgot, speaking of Livin' Large you should istall it before House party and House Party before Hot Date. Because alone they are good but together they are better. I like house party because it lets you go out ,get down ,and be crazy with the Sims!
Ihope my review was helpful and now that you are done reading it go on and buy house party for mac.

We ordered a used copy of Sims House Party and someone sent us a defective game! My friend has it though and it's very fun!

Great!

This game is a whole lot of fun. It adds a lot more to the other 2 Sims games. It gives you something else to make your Sims do. Without this game, the Sims would not be the same for me. It did make my computer a tad slower but not anything that greatly impacted my gameplay. I think this game is a must if you have the Sims. I STRONGLY recommend having any of the 4 expansion packs for the Sims because otherwise it is not as fun. I am sure you would like this game if you liek the Sims!!!
