Different Than Others
This version of Bustin Out is completely different from other versions of bustin out. I love that you can control your person while she drives her scooter around town. It is a bit more free play. You still have the goals to meet and objects to obtain. You visit a store in order to purchase items for your home. There is also a pet store to buy pets from and a gift store to buy gifts to give to friends.

The design of your sim is very limited. They have tops and bottoms. You can change the colors but not the style. Same thing going on with the shoes. You pick a face and then the hair style and color.

In the end it is a fun game to play. It is nice to have the portability of the gameboy. I love laying in bed with my gameboy and this game. It is easier to handle than a lap top and that puts it on the top of my list.

A Different Kind of Sims
I didn't think I would like this game. Starting out there aren't many option when creating your Sim, there's no house building at all, and you have to move this little person which seemed...cheap(?). But, hello! It had me hooked quick with soooo many goals, and witty dialogue choices, funny characters. There are still the classic Sim needs that you have to fulfill. You need to do little mini games in order to get job promotions, which are fun. Before playing my first impression was of a simple Pokemon style game with no depth. Not so! This game is as addictive as all The Sims games. I just got it today and I love it (have already played for about 3 hours). If you're wondering I have (and have been addicted to) The Sims for PS2, and The Sims Deluxe with the Vacation expansion pack. This is a great game for everyone...

Awesome game!!!
I love Sims Bustin Out! I got it for Christmas this year, and I can't put my gameboy down. The graphics are amazing, and you have so many options. It is great because you can guide your sim around without having to click where you want them to go, unlike regular sims. I also love that you can take sims wherever you want to now that there is a version for gameboy advance.
You start out living with your uncle, and you have to complete several goals in order to move into your house. You then recieve more goals, and you get jobs to earn money. You can get promotions, etc. All in all, it is a really fun game, and I reccomend it. I haven't tried the other consoles, but from what I have heard, they have even better graphics.
Pros:
can take it anywhere
great graphics
awesome gameplay and goals
Cons:
Diolouge is slightly limited
