My favorite of the Sims console games is Bustin' Out. So much cool stuff, and I have completed all the goals in the game a few times. However, the GameCube version (what I play) has one object that can only be unlocked with the GameBoy Advanced port of Bustin' Out.
My favorite part of the game was all the adventure that could be had with all the goals and locations, and of course, the man-eating mutant plant and rocket gnomes. However, the Feng Shui meter that limited the amount of stuff you could buy was less than desired (better than the Fire Code of The Sims 2 console though). So many hours of fun and frustration just to complete 150+ goals and seven career paths.
If The Sims 4 came out with a Bustin' Out DLC and/or stuff pack, I would be all over it. Do any other Simmers out there play Bustin' Out, or have any memories of the game that they would like to share?
Tired, hungry, or bored? Wave at the sky and yell "Foogitsnat!"

I have completed the entire game 100% about 3-5 times in my life.
I am currently in the process of a YouTube Let's Play series on Bustin' Out. I can't post links for the time being, but look up "SariaFan93 Plays The Sims: Bustin' Out" to see the videos. Having a busy outside life, I can't do all the videos in one big swoop.

One thing I always do when I play that game, before I would send my sim out away from Mom's house, I would always max out every single skill. This way I didn't have to worry, or struggle to complete each level. The last time I did this, I managed to get all the skills completed in 4 days, a personal record for me. The coolest thing about Mom's house was when ever my sim needed a rest, I would send my sim there for a work free vacation.
When I was little I was crazy about Mimi's and I never got to Malcolms Mansion, I just stayed in the houses I liked. The Goths being the worst for me lol! However two years ago I had a skart/AV adapter and had a chance to play as well and finally for the first time in my life finished the game.
To be honest I don't feel much for the Sims 4 console version yet, but if it's anything like Bustin' Out or The Urbz I might become more enthusiastic!

I recently bought a PS2 (they're so cheap these days) and some of my old favourites including Bustin' Out and although I've only played it a couple of times, I've been enjoying it just as much as I did many years ago
Hopefully I'll get to the end this time around

From what I know you can complete that mission in a variety of ways including forcing him to listen to a screaming baby, apparently they're so annoying even the antagonist is willing to pay you to make them quiet. Heh heh.
I played Bustin Out for years after and very sadly said goodbye to it when my Xbox finally died about seven years ago. I've always threatened to buy an old Xbox just to play this one game!

You seem to know a lot about Bustin' Out, maybe you can help me... I killed Chase. Well, if we're getting technical he killed himself, but I definitely didn't stop it from happening. Anyway now I'm at Pixel Acres and I'm not sure about how to complete the goal of getting Chase to "Tell Secrets". My friend and I are currently attempting to befriend Ying and see if she'll do it instead, but she keeps seducing my husband so we're not doing great as friends. Is there any point continuing this endeavour or should we hang our heads in shame and give up on the 100% dream?
Don't think my PS4 is backwards compatible at all. Think PS3 could play 2, 3 and 4 games, and seriously wish I would've done that...
