One of the first console games my sister and I played together. I would love to revisit this with her at some point. This game skyrocketed the series to greater heights and deserves to be preserved

This is the best of The Sims!! I own all but always go back to The Sims 2 for the relaxed entertainment of my peeps. Enjoyed watching my sim go out for a work lunch with a female co worker only to come home and get accused of cheating. Grim reaper comes knocking at the door. Should be ok right? Answer the door and BOOM you are dead! :)

When The Sims series were new, game websites had trouble to categorize it. It was such a shocking masterpiece that pushed all the boundaries that even critics thought that categorizing it as a simulation would belittle it. And yet, here we are. Sims 2 is one of the best in the series. It has many features that were dropped in the sequels that are still charming. People who tried only the fourth might never understand why we are still babbling about the previous ones. It has a interesting aspiration mechanic that is different than other versions. It also has lots of expansions and add-ons that actually make sense, unlike the current trend of minimal DLCs that we face today.
