I'm sorry to go against the flow, but this game sounds like a VV-meets-Sims, and to me, The Sims was one of the most BORING games I've ever seen.
I'm really disappointed, and I guess this means I'll pass on Virtual Families and wait for VV4 instead.
My husband, though, will probably like it - he loved The Sims.
I hope you all really enjoy it when it's released. It's just not my cup of tea. Maybe you'll try the hour demo and decide that you like the game. LDW has always been listening and answering their fans and maybe LDW worked the game so that it appeals to the VV followers. For the Sims haters, don't make a judgement yet. Try the demo and read what others have to say first. Sometimes you don't know if you like something until you try it.

It's too much "real" for a game, for me! But, even if I don't know what will be the story and the challenges of the Virtual Family, I'm confident in the LDW team and I think that they will not copy or imitate an existing game!! Or it's a topsy-turvy!!

I'm not really a regular gamer. In fact, I'm not really sure what possessed me to click on an advert for VV1, thus getting me hooked on the VV series. I was given The Sims (version 1) as a present some time ago, and quite enjoyed playing it for a while. However, being excessively clumsy, I managed to break the CD when taking it from its jewel case, and the game won't run without a CD in the drive. I expect I could get a replacement but I've never bothered enquiring. I've also considered buying The Sims 2, or possibly even version 3 when it comes out later in the year, but never seriously. As I said, I quite enjoyed it, but for some reason the "hook" that LDW caught me with VV isn't there. I've got high hopes of a Sims/VV cross, though.

I have to say I have never played Sims. In a way it looked intriguing yet in others, it looked incredibly boring. For this, I never made it a point to purchase or play it. From the previews, VF looks similar and I will get it when it comes out. I actually have a fuzzy feeling about this one. Having the whole VV series, PT and FT, it seems that maybe it will put a whole new mental output on the game than I had before. Plus, Who knows, Obi may be in there. I suspect we may see some of our Isola friends. If anything, they will have physical characteristics to prove they are direct descendants of our VV tribes. I cannot wait!!!!
