What console versions of the Sims did you play and what did you think of them? (lemmy.fmhy.ml)

I played all the GBA games as a kid because I was dumb and thought it would be somewhat similar to the PC release. I still had a lot of fun with them. I really enjoy the quirkiness of them.

If I had to rate them it would be

Urbz
Bustin Out
The Sims 2

I played a bit of Urbz for the GameCube and I feel like it has to be the worst of all Sims console ports.

PS2: Bustin Out, Urbz, Sims 2, Sims 2 pets
PS3: Sims 3 Pets
GBA: Sims 2 Pets (as a kid, but I don't own it anymore).
3DS: Sims 3 Pets

Of these The Urbz was most fun to me, Sims 3 Pets the best for PC-like experience, both on 3DS and PS3. But I haven't played TS4 on console as I only use older consoles or PC, it seems that those would obvious be better.

Resently been feeling like playing GBA games again, so got the GBA Bustin Out coming in the mail. Should arrive today really. Urbz and Sims 2 are still on the wishlist, but I wanna play them chronological. I love their weirdness!
