Aw yiss, The Sims 2! Totally downloading, thanks for the heads-up. I bought the original game way back when and split three EPs between my friends. (I drew the short straw by having to buy/own Open for Business. I didn't even open any businesses.)

Lets be real here. If anyone really did want this s**t for free, its quite easily found -surfing around-.

Its also slightly more annoying to get it off their site than to dl and install through other -watery- means.


But hey, don't ask me. I'm just a simple sailor.

I doubt this is a PR move tbh they stopped maintenance for the sims 2 about a week or so ago so its not like anyone is going to buy a ten year old game with horrible quality. tbh the memories are better than what we think most people I know downloaded it and played for about 5 minutes before getting bored. The only thing EA has to gain is making people get Orgins......... tbh that kind of sounds like a PR move now xD

Exactly.

Gets people using Origins, and gets people who haven't played Sims 2 playing a Sims game. Which makes them want to play newer Sims games.

Besides, not like they lose anything by giving it away, doubt it's making them too much money anymore.

Actually, I tried doing this method a second time and it wouldn't work. However, I installed sims2pack (version 1.6.21) cleaner and I've been able to download .Sims2Pack files perfectly.

What files are you trying to download? If they are .package files or .Sims2Pack files, I may be able to help you.

Thank you! I've been meaning to get some games for my laptop, but my filthy console loving a** keeps spending money on console games.

It's interesting that EA is releasing TS2 like that. If I didn't already have all of the games as physical discs I'd probably be all over it. But I have them all so I don't particularly need to bother with the download. smile

TS2 was so much better than TS3, if you ask me...
Well we're months away from Sims 4, so why not give out a game that isn't selling anymore?
Like, they took it off Origin and Steam ages ago.
People see a free game, play the addictive Sims 2, and buy the more recent games, including Sims 4 when it comes out.
It's a clever marketing strategy in my opinion.
