| I like this expansion pack for the Sims 2 because it adds another aspect to the game. It's kind of a game within the game as you create your business and try to make money and keep the customers happy. I have always thought it would be nice to be able to "go to work" with the characters instead of them just being "gone" all day, and now you kind of can! |

| I really enjoy the added play that OFB brings. You can now own your own businesses. Comes with new benches Florish, toy and robot. Also added badges to earn with the benches. Fun ep. |

| This is a great expansion pack. Not only can you create your own business, but your Sims can create home businesses and all that operate on your time. Wish real life business was like that! |

| This is an okay expansion pack but it is not my favorate. It is cool but over all i don't really do much with it. I only got it for the stuff that comes with it not the fact that I can go to work with my sim |

| This one is great you can operate the store you buy or after a while someone gets enough experience put them in charge & collect the rewards. So much cool stuff to buy too. Loads of fun. We take turns playing the sims. Help me while I was recovering from Breast cancer two years ago. I have been hooked since. |

Sims 2 Open for Business is an Excellent Expansion pack! Start your own home business, or purchase an existing one. Run a restraunt, Flower Shop, Clothing store and more. Hire and fire employees, and get rich!
Open for Business adds a whole new degree of depth and strategy to Sims 2 and if you're up to the challenge it's a definite must have! |

| I love the game it's fun managing your own business but I don't like it when it's a communtity lot you leave at noon and you leave your business at 9 pm and you go back and it's noon and your tired and it throws everything out of whack...but I guess it's the only way to do it. I enjoy it but personally I don't use it much |

Open for Business and University are the two most fun expansions to The Sims 2 world that have come out.
With this package, you can buy a business, build just about any business that you want, train employees, make your own stuff to sell, work from home, create a home business, buy more community property, and do just about anything which is great. Once you own a business and start making money, you can quit your job also and just focus on your business. Then you can hire a person, train them, and make them a manager and the best part about tat is that then you do not have to go to work almost ever, just call and collect profits.
If I had The Sims 2 and only one choice of expansion, this would be it with University right behind it. Also, this adds on to you system with almost no lag time to startup of the game or anything. It also adds a new district to your city, but you don't have to use it at all if you do not want. You can do everything from whichever town you live in if you would like.
Awesome. |

| Starters...the game is eh...fun..ish? But it is so hard to run a business; specifically a restaurant business or bakery (or maybe it is just hard for me..only).. The customers are so damn picky and nag whenever the slightest little thing bad happens to them...uh? get over it please, this is hard. If you are doing too many screw ups, you lose customer loyalties and its difficult to get to the next rank. so you need to keep them happy..kinda hard..On a brighter note, i did create a little toy shop and i am currently rank 8, running the whole thing by myself. owning shops in general is really fun, and much easier to do if its spaced well, and not too big. very fun. but after a while it can get a little boring..after making a lot of shops, dance clubs, bakeries..its like..Okay...now what do i do? I guess if you have the pets ep then you will have another business to run..but after a while you get sick of it.The robots are a cool addition. they can clean, cook and fix things for you. To have them you need to buy a robot machine and make a lot of little robots before you move on to the really advanced ones. if you are skilled enough, you can make some and put it in a shop :) I would recommend buying the seasons expansion pack first though maybe, then pets, then open for business. |

| Found this expansion pack to be useless. I almost never have a business. I find them tedious and boring to play. Unless I cheat with Sim Modder, there's no way to keep the employees happy enough to stay at work long enough to make it worth changing zones for the drive to the business site. And home based businesses, forget it! Too many people traipsing in and out of the house and if you lock the doors, you have to unlock it for each visitor. Bleh. |
