2.0- Introduction
-----------------
This is a guide to the different career paths in The Sims Bustin Out on PS2.
This guide could also be used for the GameCube and X-box versions of the game,
as they are basically the same. In the guide, I will put the in-game
descriptions of the different career levels in order, including money and
requirements, and then show a combined table of all requirements for the
careers. To start with, there will only be descriptions of the free play
careers, and basic information about the Bustin Out careers. I will try not to
make mistakes, but if I do, or if you want to make a contribution, feel free to
e-mail me at
[email protected].

3.0- Walkthrough

I will put the Bustin Out career guides first, then the Free Play mode ones.
