Fun:
Game looks great but be careful - I brought this game but could not play it, as though I have windows xp and a new computer, the list of video card drives is restrictive. Check the list on the Buena Vista Games site first - judging by the chat site there I am not the first to have problems.......

Fun:
[...] Yes, it is VERY simple to play (the hints pretty much tell you exactly what to do so you never really have to think)and it isn't exactly action packed, but its quite good fun.
You get to cook, clean, buy pretty clothes and seduce as many men as possible. The story mainly revolves around your character, rather than one of the existing housewives so any die-hard fans out there might be disappointed if they want to "get to know" the characters from the show.
If you want something light hearted and not too difficult to play, then this is the perfect game for you. If you like your games with a bit more plot and a bit less Sims-like, then I would suggest you look elsewhere..

Fun:
As a diehard fan of the series I brought this and really loved it - it's like actually going to live on Wisteria Lane. You become another housewife and get to decide what to wear (as well as styling your husband and kids) then after your household chores you get to snoop around your neighbours and find skeletons in your own closet. Brilliant I really recommend it!!!!

The game is ok, graphics are poor, but as it's an older game this was to be expected.

A great game so overfilled with too much bugs and crashes that it...
Making a video game doesn't necessarily means that you have to have to be over realistic. Why, there are games with very simple designs and visuals on PC, like Harry Potter and the... Read more
