Ok, I'm a huge Sims fan! The only Sims games I don't own are the Sim City series. I bought Sims Animals for the Wii, and I have to say that Sims Animals was more disturbing than I thought it would be. The animals are carniverous. It's too sick for me. I understand that it's based on "reality" and you are trying to balance a delicate eco-system, but for some reason, I thought it was going to be like Sims pets, except the animals are like the human Sims. I played it for 4 hours the day I got it, trying to get in to it, I couldn't do it. This game truly let me down! I'm just happy Sims 3 is coming out on Feb 20th to redeem the name "Sims". ~Debbeh
