'''The Sims: Hot Date''' is the third expansion pack released for the strategy/simulation computer game [[The Sims]]. Hot Date is one of the most important expansion packs of The Sims, because it allows Sims to leave their homes and travel to a new destination called "Downtown" for the first time - a way of going out with a sim to have dinner with him/her and even dance outside of your sim's boring old home. All of the following expansion packs for The Sims have added new destinations, such as Vacation Island, Old Town, Studio Town, and Magic Town. It is reportedly the inspiration for [[The Sims 2: Nightlife]], the second expansion pack to the sequel of the game.

The Sims: Hot Date is the third expansion pack released for the strategy/simulation computer game The Sims. Hot Date is one of the most important expansion packs of The Sims, because it allows Sims to leave their homes and travel to a new destination called "Downtown" for the first time - a way of going out with a sim to have dinner with him/her and even dance outside of your sim's boring old home. All of the following expansion packs for The Sims have added new destinations, such as Vacation Island, Old Town, Studio Town, and Magic Town. It is reportedly the inspiration for The Sims 2: Nightlife, the second expansion pack to the sequel of the game.

Non-player characters[edit]
