Play, work, and socialize with a cast of over 25 new outrageous characters and climb through a dozen new careers. The Sims Bustin’ Out also features new integrated two-player gameplay and memory card support, for those players who like to take their Sims over to a friend’s house and show them off.
Features

even further by going online to trade objects and socials. You can also play
through the complete game with a friend!
• Gameplay Experience: Create a character and play through over a dozen all-new
unlockable levels. Choose from several new careers including Gangster, Athlete,
Mad Scientist, and Fashion Victim that will take you through multiple ways to
play and win the game. Go back and forth through different careers and levels to
unlock objects. Additionally, play two-player throughout the entire game with or
against your friends.
• Get Out of the House and Explore New Locations: Travel seamlessly around town
in your new scooter or car to play, work, and socialize. Visit, explore, or live
in console exclusive, never been seen, new locations such as Club Rubb, the hip
dance venue, or venture to the Love Shack. Additional locations include Shiny
Things Lab, Goth Manor, and Toane's Gym.
• Unlock 100 New Objects and Social Moves: Console exclusive objects include the
Laser Light Show, DJ Booth, Climbing Wall, and High Dive. Unlock hidden,

Goldie Toane, the workout queen, who also double as key sources to unlocking
locations, objects, social interactions, and winning the game.
• Create-a-Sim: Personality matters! Revamp your Sims with new hip clothes and
give your Sims personality traits that impact and affect gameplay experience. An
outgoing or playful Sim is destined to show of smooth moves on the dance floor
and an active Sim will conquer the climbing wall like no other.

the game, enjoy sleek new graphics, seamless UI, shadows in real-time, new
voices, sound effects, and all-new original music.
