About Judy

As WP's managing editor, I edit review and preview articles, attempt to keep up with the frantic pace of Rainier's news posts, and keep our reviewers on deadline, which is akin to herding cats. When I have a moment to myself and don't have my nose in a book, I like to play action/RPG, adventure and platforming games.

In The Sims 2, you direct your Sims over a lifetime and mix their genes from one generation to the next.

This highly anticipated and award-winning PC game is set to be one of the biggest games of the year. With the ground-breaking introduction of genetics, players control their Sims over a lifetime and pass their Sims' DNA down from one generation to the next.

Players will be able to create and play virtually their own sitcom by choosing one of five different aspirations for their Sims' lives: -- their choices include: Popularity, Fortune, Family, Knowledge, and Romance. These aspirations in life cause your Sims to have wants and fears -- Will you give your Sims a long successful existence or leave their life in shambles?

The Sims 2 also opens up endless new creative possibilities. Make your own Sim films with the new movie making feature. Create the cast, set the stage, take control of the camera and capture your own screenplay in action. Zoom in close with the new camera to see every last detail.

Generate unique Sims with the new "Create-A-Sim" packed with a vast selection of facial features, hairstyles, and outfits. Gain easy access to player made content and open up endless customization options. Create dream homes and design neighborhoods with the new building, design, and home furnishing options.

It's up to you to take your Sims from the cradle to the grave, fulfill their dreams, and push them to extremes in The Sims 2. What will you make of their lives?
