I started playing about when “On Holiday” was released, and soon after I got a “8 in 1” game. Around 2002/2003.
I started playing The Sims in 2005, when I saw my friend playing The Sims 2 on PS2. The game looked pretty interesting, so I had to buy it.
After 2 months, I got The Sims 2 for PC, and I’ve been addicted to The Sims Series ever since.
I started playing the sims when my sister was and I just loved the fact that you can do almost anything on it, the sims is just the worlds most amazing game <3 🙂
I’ve been playing The Sims since the second installation of the game because I received it as a present from my mum for my birthday and I’ve been in love with the game ever since.
When it first came out! 2000! Was playing Simcity waaay before that 😀
I first started playing The Sims Series in 2007, my first game being The Sims Busting Out for my PS2. 🙂
I started playing when the first ever sims game came out, my mums friend bought it for me and my brother 🙂
I started playing The Sims in 2007. I heard of the game before, but never played it. My Granduncle gave me his games and I couldn’t stop playing The Sims since then! 😀
I started playing the Sims in 2010. I mostly play the sims 3 with its expansions and sometimes the sims 2, I want to play the sims 1 as well but I can’t find no shop where I live to buy a new copy of it. :/
I started playing in 2003. I was looking over at my brother playing with these tiny people and i insisted i joined in. I set fire to the house and killed a few sims but i soon got the hang of it and when I finally found out there was a sims 2, i instantly got it and since then i have been a simmer.
2000! The core boring, bland old game but so so excellent and so engrossing that it kept me interested for almost 13 years.
I started playing the sims after I went round my friends and watched them play the sims 2 on their computer in about 2005/2006, I fell in love instantly! I couldn’t afford Sims 2 but found Sims and Sims Making Magic in a shop one day and with my pocket money bought them, was, and still am, hooked!
i started playing june 12,2013
My cousin showed my sister TS1 back in 2003 and she started playing it. Then, when I saw her playing this cute game where you controlled the lives of little people, six-year-old me loved it and I have followed the series’ growth until this day.
I started playing a little bit after The Sims 2 came out, the first game I got was The Sims 2 for PlayStation 2 and I got it for PC around when Pets came out. 🙂
I never play Sims 1 …. I hope I can now… 🙂 Thx
I started playing in 2007 and I being addicted ever since
🙂
Heheh i started playing The Sims when it came out in 2000… I used to play it with my stephmother and I remembered how much i loved the game and building houses and killing my sims (I still do -Mwuahaahhaha) And now i’m a Sim Addict -_-” Plus someone lost my Base Game disc thingie of The Sims 1 -____-” (wanted to share my story)
I started playing the game (The Sims) when I saw it in a store, and it caught my attention, so I bought it and I was playing all day.
I started playing when The Sims Living Large (Livin’ It Up) came out in 2000.
It would be amazing to play this again
Must’ve been about 2002/03 when I was 7/8 years old, and fell in love with it straight away! I’ve bought almost all of the expansions for all 3 base games since!
I started playing Sims since 2003 when I was and since then my parents have bought me every game
YAY 😀
It took me a while to actually START playing, lol.
I was introduced to The Sims 2 when I was 8 (I think) and I was in Scotland for the first time. I didn’t play, but read the back of Family Fun Stuff and Open for business packs. I kept reading and reading it, because it seemed so fun.
When I got back home, I begged my mum for the game, but she was very reluctant. A year passed and I got my birthday money from my Granddad, which was enough to buy the base game. I happily went home and tried to install it, but sadly I had no idea it wouldn’t work on Windows 2000. Unfortunately, I had to return the game. It took another year or two for our family to buy a new computer. As soon as I received the new PC, I went to the store to buy the base game immediately. I think it was around September 2006 that I finally got to play the Sims 2. My first town was Strangetown and I remember that I fought for the love of Ophelia and Johnny. 🙂
*Septemeber 2007/2008
2005 at a friends house. Since then I’ve spent most of the money I’ve ever earnt on expansion packs 🙂 so worth it, I love the sims 😛
its been so long I can’t remember, but I remember sims 1, how far we have come!
I started playing The Sims when a friend lent the game to me when I was a kid of 10 years, I think it was around 2003 and I just fell in love with the game and endlessly played it over and over and 10 years later in my 20s I am still a fan and cannot wait till the Sims 4 😀
I don’t remember the year exactly, maybe 2002 or 2003. I played months with the base game before knowing there was expansions. When I discovered them, I wanted them all. The Sims was and still is an important part of my life.
😀
Well I saw it from a friend, and I used to go to her house everyday and watch her play it for hours, this was sims 2 and was probably in like 2007, and I played sims 1 for a bit with my friend in 2005. My friends introduced me to the wonders of sims and I have been enjoying my very own sims 3 since 2010.
I didn’t really play the sims when it first came out but i watched my brother play it a lot because it was his game and his console and i wasn’t allowed to play it even though i REALLY wanted to 🙁
I started playing sims in 2011, with the sims 3 plus pets.
I want to purchase the sims 1 or 2, to see how that was, for a long time, so this giveaway is awesome!
By the way: congratulations on your anniversary!
I wanna win that.
I started playing since sims 3 and bought all the stuff and expansion packs
I have been plaguing Sims for well it’s been that long I can’t even remember. I have played Sims on Xbox And PlayStation I still play it all the time just now on xbox360 and pc. Love Sims!!!
2006. Borrowed The Sims from the sister of my friend and from this moment on I couldn’t stop going on playing them. :p
2005 when my sister’s friend gave me all of her Sims games! 🙂
I have been playing the sims for as long as I can remember (not very long). I believe that it would’ve been around 2005 when I was given the decision to get one of two games, one was the sims 1, the other I’m not too sure as to what it was, but I now believe it to be The Sims 2. So me being young and absent minded, I picked The Sims 1, but I don’t regret it at all.
I first began to play THE SIMS in 2000! I remember reading in a magazine that the TV Show Big Brother had some kind of electronic counterpart in PC, this being THE SIMS.
I should wait for months until I coulb purchase the game in my country.
Since day one I was totally absorbed!
I would really love to win this.
I started playing right when the original, first Sims game came out. I was 7, but I sadly lost my original copy when TS2 came out, and have missed the game ever since! This would be a great reunion please!

I started playing Sims 2 in 2010, one year later i started playing Sims 3 and I fall in love! 🙂
I started playing the Sims in 2000 when I was 7 and my older brother got it for his birthday. I played it a lot more than he did and subsequently got the following expansion packs for birthdays and Christmases. He once claimed that all my expansion packs were his because the base game was his first. Noooooo way.
I first started playing The Sims on my Dad’s birthday on 4th February 2000, I only had got it because my brother was into playing SimCity.
I started playing sims 1 way back in 2003. My son had it and I kinda took it over .And it all went from there. I’ve been a huge fan ever since . I’m still a huge fan , unfortunately I no longer have ts1 , I lent them to my mother in law who was house bound due to her illness.
I started playing Sims when my friend introduced me The Sims 2 for PS2 back in 2006. So interested into it then I bought the game and playing it nonstop. 😀
I started playing shortly after The Sims was released. My brother showed me a picture of the game in a magazine and I fell in love, I was only 10. My brother than borrowed the game from a friend and I still remeber the first time I played the game, I made my sim couple kiss and I didn’t know kissing made a baby in game so I was suprised when I got the message to have one, I was so excited lol. I never owned the first game I always had to borrow from friends, than when I finally got my own I leant it to my cousin and she scratched it to the point that it wont install. I never could get a new copy again, I was sooo upset 🙁 I never let her borrow anything else again lol and she undestands why. Anyways I would love to own a copy once again and this time keep it safe forever. 🙂
Happy Anniversary!
I started playing The Sims back in 2002.
I read about a game called The Sims House Party and I got really excited.
A few days after i bought the game only to find out it was an expansion pack and it needed The Sims.
So I bought The Sims and installed them…
So here am I.. eleven years after and still playing it…
I was raised with that game and I won’t stop playing it because I never gets old for me..
Played the Sims from day one, now playing Sims 3 got all the expansions and store content. Cost me a lot of money but don’t care as i love the Sims three. I misplaced my Sims 1 disc but would love to go back and play again
The one that started it all… <3
i like you guys soo much !! 🙂
I’ve always wanted to play the Sims 1! I started playing the Sims 2 when Bon Voyage had just come out. I fell in love with the game and bought all the expansion packs lol. Since then I’ve played all the Sims 3 expansion packs and I can’t wait for the Sims 4!
I was introduced to The Sims when I was quite young by My Brother’s Friend! I must had been 6 or 8 So (2000-2002 I started playing)! I have continued to play it all the way through to The Sims 3! 😀
I first started playing the console version of The Sims Bustin Out/Urbz on PS2 when I was 10 years old (2004-2005). Then I started playing the PC version of The Sims after my cousin lost my The Sims Bustin Out CD and replaced it with the PC version. I enjoyed the PC version more and have been a big fan since then. I continued playing until now all the way through The Sims 3, and The Sims 4 soon! 😀
when my kids first introduced me to the sims1 I blame them for my whole sim addiction 🙂

To be totally honest, i cannot remember what year i started playing Sims. It was a long time ago.
I first started play the sims in 2006. I play it at cousin’s house, but then i immediately go at store and i buy it.
I started playing The Sims when The Sims 2 came out. That’s why I’d love to got these collectors edition!
I started playing when I was at university, I loved the university disc – and have enjoyed playing ever since!!!
I started adventure with The Sims, when my sister tell me that are The Sims and that it is a game of life. Since that time, still playing The Sims. More specifically, it was somewhere in 2003. 🙂
