There are another two reviews for The Sims Online. The first one is a short one from Gamers.com. It's short, and the game gets a 9 out of 10. To read it, click here. A longer review comes from Game Industry. They tested the game for 1 month, and gave their opinion to us. According to them, it's well-worth the $9.95 per month. But it's not all good too:
"I saw a lot of the same people online at the circle of places I visited, so it's obvious that Sims fans are having a good time and that the game has staying power. However, I have to say that there were a lot of times when I thought the game was a bit dull. Constantly having to study to improve your skills (they degrade after a time) was annoying. It was not very fun just watching my sim read a book for hours on end, with occasional rests to use the bathroom or eat food. You will spend a lot of your time just standing around fiddling with a guitar or with your nose in a book, especially when you are just starting out."Generally, they're positive about the game though, with 4.5 out of 5 gems.
