 Um...not as much as I thought, Mar 20, 2023
This game at first was great...but started to get boring.
The Urbz was the first game i bought for my Gamecube. I was satisfied...for 2 days.
I got to Darius's penthouse really fast, and after that theres nothing to do. the goals are the same...in every district!
Pros:
Fun
Cool Clothes
Nice houses
cool furniture
cool people
Cons:
easy
repetitive goals
pets (they peed everywhere)
socials (to confusing)
gets boring
no money (you only buy clothes!)
daruis's "money machine" it didnt even work
rep (deterorates fast)
then..i bought the Sims for gamecube. it was sooooooooooo much better. and so overall the urbz was to much of a strech for the sims creators

Urbz review, Mar 4, 2023
Many of you are saying this game is not worth buying because it is short, but I've been playing it straight for 6 days, so I guess Im just slow. Urbz: Sims in the city is actually alot more fun than I expected it to be. My friend and I rented it first when we realized that it is strangely addictive. The only slightly bad part is that it takes a simi-long time to load and loading is frequent. It's also kind of hard to keep up with the Sims' needs, but all of the Sims games are like that. I think its great how you can have piercings and tatoos. I like it the most though, because you can be someone your not and actually become popular (yeah so Im a looser, give me a break)If you're looking for a fun, addicting game, then Urbz is a great choice

 It's OK, Jan 9, 2023
I recent;y bought this game and because i was stupid enough to not buy a memory card big enough i couldn't turn it off. I basically beat this game in 12 hours al together.
Pros: Has a good 2 player feature
Nice Music
Fun sometimes
Cons: VERY LONG LOADING TIMES
very short game
not a lot of sim to sim interaction
no freeplay
small districts
short storyline
Not a lot of "things to own"
All in all i Don't recommend buying this game. Renting sure!

A great rent, not a great buy., Jan 7, 2023
This game is fun and addicting, despite the frequent load times you have to endure, but once you've completed all the goals there's not much interest in it anymore. I would definitely recommend renting because I had a blast playing it, but after two rentals I finished all the goals and was about ready to call it quits. I definitely would not recommend buying it.
Customizing your Urbz with outfits, tattoos, and piercings is fun, but be warned: every time you change districts, you have to change your outfit, and it has to be done piece by piece, reselecting all the colors, etc. This got a little annoying after a while.

 Urbz Is Living Big, Huge, Skyscraper Huge!, Dec 30, 2022
Urbz was one of my top 5 favorite X-mas presants this year!!!!! Ingnore the negative complaints about this game! I love and you should to! it's so cool because you can earn money quick, graphics are like so real, and all the cool clothing opions and social options. Being able to make your own crew of people is awsome! You also have the hip Black Eyed Peas download. Go and buy this game!!
