I am indeed alive!
and very very happen!
I got my new laptop which is absolutely amazing!
I've been playing sims 3 non-stop lol, it's so addicting.
However I don't think anything will replace sims 2.
I was having major issues getting sims 2 to work on my computer,
something about Directx 0.9c and graphics adapters lol.
Anyways it's all fixed up and I'm just finishing install all the stuff packs,
but all my friends were like you have sims 3 why do you need sims 2?
Well. duh. The gameplay is completely different! lol
Anywho, I'm alive and as soon as these are installed there will be updates! :)
