Selling more than 1 million units in its first 10 days, it was an immediate hit.

The Sims 2 was released by Maxis in September 2004. It's a small, but appreciated addition.Will Wright's gamble on a virtual dollhouse had paid off. If a Sim has tight pants on, the boots will show up over them, whereas if the pants flare out, the boots will be covered. For boot lovers like myself, I was also impressed by the new smart boot technology, that intelligently chooses when to display boots under or over pants. Want your Sims to sleep in a suit and work out in pajamas? Go for it. In The Sims 4, you can select multiple outfits for each occassion, and you can choose from any type of clothing for each one. In previous Sims games you select one outfit for everyday, one for the gym, one for formal outings, and one for sleeping. What I loved though, is how you can set multiple outfits for different categories. There are hundreds of clothing options for both male and female Sims, many of them coming with different pattern and color options. In previous games, changing your hat changed your hairstyle completely, but not anymore. Moving away from the face and onto clothing, one major addition in The Sims 4 is how you can use any hat with any hairstyle. Selecting a template actually changes the bone structure of a Sim, allowing for more ethnicity options as well. No sliders here! There are some templates you can use to set you on the right track, and I loved how I could really create exactly what I wanted by using the template as a base, then manipulating the Sim after. You can adjust a Sim's chin, ears, eyebrows, nose (including the bridge and nostrils), mouth, cheeks, jaw, eyes, and even his pupils easily just by dragging them.

As you zoom in to a Sim's face using the fine detail mode, hovering over just about anything will cause it to light up, showing every area you can customize further. While there are more of these points for the body of Sims than ever before, what's even more impressive is how detailed you can get with a Sim's facial structure. The developers refer to each area that you can change as a point of manipulation.

There's even the ability to change the size of a Sim's feet, a first for The Sims series. For those who love booty, you can now drag out the posterior area of a Sim too.
