I hate how I have to push this video in a 2-parter because it was only 5 minutes over the twelve hour limit.. but here we are. I just want to clarify that in the first half of the game I didn't actually know you could switch characters, so the gameplay probably could've been a lot faster had I known that. Also, somebody pointed out that Leo is a difficult Zodiac sign to deal with due to it's high Outgoing need. I didn't know this. Fortunately.. it's just a Sims game. This channel isn't about speedrunning and with games like these I don't think it matters if they happen to come out a little longer than intended. I do think it's important to mention that I did not use any exploits in this recording. I think I played the game mostly as intended, which is our goal as the channel when it comes to archiving these games. Apparently there's a major exploit that allows you to wake your Sim up almost immediately by purchasing these special lamps and electrocuting yourself with them. If you want to speedrun this game, I guess what you do is putting a Jacuzzi in the living room to raise three stats with it at once, followed by electrocuting yourself to be fully awake and then to work on raising your skills/completing objectives. As said, I consider all of that exploitative and I felt like this game should be archived with footage of the Sims actually sleeping in a bed when they're tired.
Personally, if I wanted to watch a speedrun of this game, I'd watch a speedrun of it. I'm here to watch how games are intended to be played. Thanks for another great longplay!
This is the first Sims game I ever played. I remember I couldn't save my progress for the longest time because I needed a better memory card. Such a great game, thank you for uploading.
Some notes to mention in Get a Life: if any important sims die, your money drops to 0, you get fired from your job, or you get kicked out of whatever home you’re living in, the game will end and you’ll have to reload your last save to try again.
I love this game. It’s so rare that people post it on TY. I had to keep skipping ahead because the bug noise. Dude. How can you ignore that for 6 hours straight? Clean the damn house.
Lol you have to neglect certain things in this version of the game if you wish to excel. The only ways around it is by either using exploits such as electrocuting yourself or abusing espresso. I agree I could've gotten myself a maid earlier on though. I think I use one in the second part
@@longplayarchive sorry to disagree, you could've made better selling/purchasing choices to make things easier. Like selling useless decorative items, duplicate items like trash can when you have a compactor, aquarium and plants which require time and care, BBQ because it doesn't fill your hunger that well. In essence get rid of all wasteful items. Instead, I would purchase a better TV, an autoflush toilet, chess set with nice chairs, comfy dining chairs, better fridge and stove which will fill your hunger needs better than cheap versions. Essentially you're looking for better and efficient items to replace all the crap you don't need. And always kill 2 or more birds with a stone whenever possible. Don't eat alone, invite your friends over for dinner especially clean ones like Pauline and Pierre they'll even help clean up after eating. Invite your friends to play chess with you after dinner, you'll increase your logic, comfort, social and friendship.
@waterjade4198 Wow! I love those tips actually! I definitely limited myself by wanting to make sure to use only the furniture the game gave me. Thank you. Feel free to point out more things I could’ve done better in a new comment, I’m sure others will find it helpful. No offence taken😅
it kinda funny that nancy the papergirl the burglar and the police maybe the mailman is just invisible that only show their shadow footprints when their walking i wandered if that a glitch or bug or something..
I couldn’t figure it out! There’s some more reports about it online. In some cases it seems to be a glitch, but with mine I was wondering if it’s perhaps exclusive to GC. I didn’t take notice of it until halfway thru the game at which point I just rolled with it
✨🎮👾Hey I’m gettin a sims GameCube game but tryna figure out if I should get sims 1 or sims bustin out? for my first GameCube sims game.

I just popped it in for old times sake and the wallpapers and floors are so ugly! 😂 You can hardly make something that looks decent by today's standards. Everything was so warm toned or busy looking. Not much simple woods, whites, blues, gray etc. You know it's old when they include border.

Much thanks:)
Thank you for making this I've had this video on to sleep every night lately. My childhood
That’s a specific exploit. How the fuck did someone even figure that out?
Lol, possibly before the days of easily accessible information on the internet and people just trying to explore every action by themselves
The music in this game is so nostalgic to me, I would spend so many hours playing this on me and my brothers GameCube as a kid.
This is the first Sims game I ever played. I remember I couldn't save my progress for the longest time because I needed a better memory card. Such a great game, thank you for uploading.
This is what got me into the sims series. Talk about a blast from the past
i had to turn my sound down cause of the flies buzzing but over all i loved the game play great job u took me back love this
wow I can’t believe you guys long played this game! I would’ve never known haha, something told me to look it up. Ty for sharing this classic
Lol definitely use to play this for hours in the early-mid 00s.
Wow, LongplayArchive Is A Champ at doing Longplays.
I used to love the sims series as a kid
well it suck now does it? 😊
I remember playing this game on PS2 when I was a child.
The game that taught us how to speak gibberish 🤣
😂😂 Nah I speak fluently in Simlish
Yeeooooo 🔥😭🤣
@@AaronDonohoeRyan vooget snots 😭
You mean Simlish.
Sul Sul!
The Sims-“Lord of the Flies” is more like it.

Picking Leo???? Outgoing is the most annoying need to raise. Game is a lot easier the lower your outgoing level is. PROTIP
Ah no wonder.. tyvm. I’m a Leo so that’s why 😅
@@longplayarchive This is a hard mode longplay 😅

call a maid and feed the fish to
"Get a life"

Hahah yep I guess it makes sense why there were websites dedicated to downloading mods for more decoration and whatnot, atleast for the PC version.
For sure. Can't forget the old tvs! 🤡
