Video Game Reviews of The Sims 2: Apartment LifeCustomer Review: Expected to be able to Make/Edit Apartments Summary: 1 Stars--You can't edit existing apartments (e.g. move a bush, add a door, etc.).
--It's a pain to try to create something that resembles an apartment building (and once you do, it can't be used as an apartment).
--There's no way to assign a section of a building (each apartment) to particular Sims (e.g. in TSO you could assign doors, don't seem to be able to do that here).
--You can't access different Sims on the same lot in the same building if they're in different apartments (I assumed you could otherwise there's no difference between this and Sims in houses).
--I read you can only have one exterior door per apartment & that it disables your CD/DVD burner, disrupts antivirus programs, & causes system failures that are only fixable with complete system reformats.
If I knew about any of these problems before I bought it, I wouldn't have purchased this expansion pack.
