Now… time for the second part of a three part installment, present time… well… video games and consoles are important things during this time. Computers are too, but people spend more time playing games. The game I am going to focus on here is ‘The Sims.’ It is (to my knowledge) the highest selling video game franchise?

The game lets you control a ‘sim’, a virtual person whom you control, you could kill them, you could torment them, you could lead them the right way. In the recent third game in their series, they made the games expanse bigger and they let you choose a wider array of characters to chose from. This game got a lot of people hooked and people started recording their games and putting them on youtube and other video sharing sites and making ‘films.’ That shows that it is something important.
