While some of you may prefer to play the PS2 or the Wii versions of the title first, discriminating the PSP for its graphics, I decided to go the other way and give Sony's portable wonder a chance. Everything's been revamped and "consolized" if you can allow me to patent this verb of mine. Maxis stays true to the legacy of the previous titles delivering something more than your average expansion pack. The Sims is the best selling game in the world and this goes to show that it's pure quality and it captured the attention of both gaming experts, FPS fans, girls dressed in pink, hardcore rockers, mom, grandma.basically everyone. However, there are enough PS2, PSP or Wii consoles out there to boost the sales of Castaway, one of the most original The Sims 2 titles I've seen lately. It's a strange choice, considering that the minute my girlfriend saw the game on the PSP she claimed that she'll rather wait for a PC version, than play it on the portable device. What would you do if you were shipwrecked on a deserted island? What if your only way of entertaining yourself was a PSP? And what if the only UMD available was The Sims 2 Castaway? In this ocean of possibilities, one thing is for sure: we're dealing with another Sims-branded blockbuster and this time it will only be made available on consoles.
