First, off, awesome game. Does anyone else have it? I rented it for Gamecube and I am having a blast playing. My game didn’t have an instruction manual, though. Does anyone know how to do the two player mode?

Any thoughts or early reviews of this game?

i bought the Sims for my GC and to be honest it put me right off, but the GBA connectivity looks good is Bustin’ Out worth buying?

what about it put you off? The game itself? I’m really enjoying Bustin’ Out- there are a lot more things to do, like visit other places, move easily from place to place, and play goal oriented type games.

Ahh…I think you’ll like Bustin’ Out- why not rent it and see? I liked the original, but I’m a Sims junkie, so I’m biased. Bustin’ Out is much more interesting play wise, it really is. My local Hollywood Video has it- probably most major rental places will, too. Make sure it has instructions, though- if you’re not real Sim familiar, it can get irritating fast 🙂
