Customer Reviews

Over 35

To the reviewer who complained about the font. I'm 42 and can read the guide just fine. Please do not lump people over 35 with you, evidently you have bad eyesight, and that's not Prima's fault. Definately buy this guide no matter what age you are!

TS2 PRIMA Game Guide

Prima is "Premium", the most useful and helpful tool that my wife and I have gotten for the Sims games! Thank you so much to all those involved with the making, publishing, and marketing of these Wonderful Help and Instruction Guides! Sincerely, Gary L Hoffman

Very informative and worth the money!

The Sims 2: Open for Business is a more complex expansion pack than any of the previous ones, so this guide would definitely be something to consider even if you didn't purches ones for University or Night Life. This guide includes... Chapter 1 - What's New in The Sims 2 Open for Business Chapter 2 - Shopping Districts Chapter 3 - Talent Badges Chapter 4 - Owning and Running a Business Chapter 5 - Anatomy of a Customer Chapter 6 - Business Rank and Perks Chapter 7 - Workforce Relations Chapter 8 - Business Types: Retail & Services Chapter 9 - Business Types: Restuarant Chapter 10 - Business Types: Venues Chapter 11 - New Objects Chapter 12 - New Socials Chapter 13 - Kid Stuff Chapter 14 - Build Mode Additions Chapter 15 - Tour of Bluewater Village Chapter 16 - Cheats ***Review from older expansion packs and The Sims 2 Chapter 17 - Jobs by Career Level Chapter 18 - Objects Chapter 19 - Socails This guide is definitely not mandatory as most aspects of the new expansion pack can be figured out through trial and error. However, if you want to save yourself some frustration, I would suggest spending the $12. This guide does reveal some very important aspects about businesses and customers that it is helpful to know before starting a business. All in all, this is a very informative guide, and I give it 5 stars for quality and quanity! Although, this is not a must. Recommended to those who want an early edge.
