If anyone is scared of any of these games being a virus they are not. i have been using this website for about a year now and i have not had any viruses yet. if you are skeptical you can always run the game using a virtual machine from Virtualbox.org or Parallels if you are on a mac.

naufaldzol2021-02-07-73 points

This is really the worst complete collection I've ever seen. It's because this might crashes your laptop and I don't recommend you to download this game. Also this must be a pirated game so install the legimate copy of this game at an authorized seller/game store near you. And I have to report this to EA about this.

Bluemule20212021-01-07-13 points

um is this a virus?
and is it playable
do you need the disk?

this installation process worked just fine for me. only hiccup was i had trouble drag+dropping the cracked sims.exe file into my program files, and i had to specifically use the 'move to' option at the top of the finder window.
anyway, the game loaded in ok! but the hud is doing something funky. my sims portraits were blank in create-a-sim, and then when i moved the family into the house and started furnishing, the pop up descriptions of the items would blink out AND the portraits of each item was blank. so i literally had to hover each item i could afford (which means no hope telling what those expensive items are) and guess what the comfort and decorative stats were.
i went to save the game and exit, so i could restart the game and see if that hiccup was just a one-off, but now my game's frozen. i might ctrl+alt+del and start up the game again, but i don't even want to think about looking for the missing portrait files or trying to mess with the buy-mode pop-ups. i didn't even get to really test the gameplay aspect! whew.
if anyone's experienced similar problems, lmk! altho thank you for providing a copy of the sims to begin with. the music alone was a delight to hear again.

Well, this allright but can you make it so you can accutally play it please? I would really appreciate it!

Found a solution: go into the setup folder of the ISO and run setup.exe (If you tried to run start.exe beforehand, make sure to kill the process in task manager as it will still run in the background, it just won't open anything)

Floyd2020-09-040 point

The Start.exe does literally nothing. Tried all of the compatibility modes, and nothing. It shows up in task manager, but nothing actually happens. So I can't even install the damn thing, let alone anything else after.

animalluver932020-09-030 point

This is a mac iso we need a windows iso

Jeb2020-07-121 point

I have downloaded it but where should I extract it? is it in the download section? or it is going to be in the ISO?? Then where should I start? is it going to be the the start.exe or setup.exe in order to start the installation?? I clicked both it still won't work, can you pls give me step by step procedure for this since im not used to ISO..

Jeb2020-07-121 point

I never used ISO before, do you have step by step for this to install??

ofc2020-06-110 point

For everyone upset, here is a website that helped me get this running. Just follow all the steps and it works

Uploaded a new ISO, should work

The Definitive Patsy Cline2020-05-181 point

I dunno why Deo is getting downvoted. Its not rocket science. Don't install ANY older game to Program Files. Make a C:Games or D: Games directory and install there. No need to faff about with disabling UAC which is a terrible thing to do from a security standpoint.
Also, compatibility mode isn't enough to get this game to work. There are multiple howtos and patches to get this game to work on modern hardware. Just googles 'Sims 1 windows 10', the first link will probably be to a howto at SimsVIP, which is adequate.

Cloudy2020-05-040 point

Can't get it to launch even after changing the compatibility mode and running as administrator. Any advice?

Question Man2020-04-260 point

I have an issue where moving in a family just puts me in buy mode and no sims are on the lot, any fix for this?

-=DEO=-2020-04-16-5 points

Who the hell is installing games to the ProgramFiles directory? It's 2020, in the '90s it was ok, after 2000 not really. Win 98 was so unstable in the past...I needed to use old NortonGhost (2floppy disc) to made backup from a newly installed windows with media players, drivers and games. BTW after that the backup reinstall just took 5-10 mins with my games register files (games installed on D:).

Natalie2020-04-154 points

Thank you for these uploads! I was having a bit of trouble getting it to run on my new laptop but turns out it is a super simple fix. Now its running fast. This video helped me so thought I would share. https://youtu.be/ZtBQCtLnFKc

Exsosus2019-12-051 point

Thank you very very much for this!! I will update the original Sims forum in here that they should download this edition instead to enjoy the DLC add-ons.
Thank you community at Abandonware!

DRU2019-09-10-1 point

how do you get it working on windows 10

Hestia2019-07-098 points

This is a terrible download. Only one neighborhood exists and the original households (Goths / Newbies) are gone! Avoid at all costs. Fake complete collection download.

sgwedge2019-06-251 point

if this download works then ill be buzzin la

Tom2019-06-014 points

I don't get it. I installed but I can't find a single EXE to launch it...

realGhostMop2019-03-21-3 points

Can't install from disks without disk readers, downloading to use the valid cd-key from my copy.

drfrag2019-02-242 points

Don't download, it's a custom shitty and extremely slow installer with missing stuff. It's not the real complete collection. There's only one neighborhood and for instance the tutorial is not included.

Dude2019-02-061 point

Where is the key??

Quil the Great2019-01-171 point

Sims 2 Ultimate Collection Mac

Had some minor issues with the download, but apart from that, this game works perfectly! There is, however, only one neighborhood but that doesn't make a huge different. The installer certainly takes a while, but once up and running on my Windows XP virtual machine it went perfectly. An excellent game overall!

tjonmaxx2019-01-120 point

Hello, this game will not work on win 7+.
to resolve this. once installed go to crack folder
in cd and replace 'sims' in c drive. game will now run and run without disk.

mrpenguinb2019-01-071 point

For problems with the game's performance, use a DirectDraw wrapper.
The PCGamingWiki article tells you how to install the DirectDraw wrapper: https://pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/The_Sims#Low_frame-rate_and_graphical_glitches
With the wrapper, alt+tab works perfectly fine with no graphical glitches.

underskyzx2019-01-060 point

Completely disable UAC or install in c:userspublic since it's considered 'public' no permissions issues with saves

kippie2018-08-120 point

It's taking a lonnnng time to install it's been maybe a few hours now (I already downloaded the file I'm having trouble INSTALLING it) and I'm concerned about others saying that there's save issues sooo how do I prevent save issues and am I having a problem installing or is this normal?

The audio only works on a computer they don't make anymore. But, if you get the full edition with all of the packs the audio will work

Battlefield1fan2018-07-03-10 points

This game is cool but when you play it now it now compared to all the other ones it looks and feels bad

Deeman2018-06-1610 points

The save error occurs because the game was designed during the windows 9x days which didn't have user level protections. This is why you have to run as admin if the game is installed to the default location. (C:Program FilesEAGames) To fix this so Admin is not needed, you just install to a directory that doesn't require admin such as your Documents folder.

anonymous2018-06-130 point

Always a save error regardless of what I want to save. What's wrong?

JJ2018-05-2610 points

Solved my problem. If anyone else has problems with saving, just start the game by running it as an administrator.

JJ2018-05-260 point

The game runs, but wont save. Any idea's?

julian2018-03-06-4 points

Since the late nineties, simulation games have been popular within the world of gaming. Offering a way to live out niche fantasies or mundane realities from the comfort of your desk chair. One series that has exemplified this is The Sims and when it burst on the scene offering players the ability to live mundane life through an avatar and play God with wacky and fun scenarios. Then it was only logical that The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection would come along and up the ante.

This title plays like any game within the Sims series. Though outside of this game franchise, then perhaps it plays sort of similarly to My Time At Portia or Animal Crossing. With the Sims having it's roots much more firmly in the real world than those mentioned.

More of the Same

EA knew they had a good thing going with this series and when the time came for a sequel, they didn't rock the boat. The gameplay remained very much the same. All the core mechanics remained but with the addition of more content, a much higher quality art style and a plethora of new animations and character nuances and personalities.

What the Sims aims to do is take a mundane life simulation and then offer a self-aware and satirical commentary on life itself. The presentation is cartoonish and comedic, with hilarious scenarios happening from minute to minute due to the sandbox style that the game utilizes so well.

On a bigger scale

The original Sims outing offered you the ability to create your own home and family life. However, the second outing allows to expand beyond your own means and create your own neighbourhoods. With environmental additions such as foliage, other houses, community centres and additional things that allow the player to create a surrounding environment that works for them.

Character creation has also been added to. Giving players the ability to customise their facial structure, style and personality more than ever before. Allowing you to make your character exactly how you want them to be. Whether that's a character in your own image or a role-play as someone completely different. It's all possible in this title.

Just like real life

The game also adds more focus to children and adolescents. These characters will have responsibilities much like the adults such as school, chores and social life. This adds more depth to the original concept for children and they are also available in bigger numbers. Meaning that the gameplay isn't as adult heavy and seems more realistic.

This coupled with the aspiration system that is incorporated into every character that you build for your world really adds a sense of belonging in this virtual life. Each character has an overarching life goal, whether that is a career, a family or whatever you choose it to be. It takes the rather arbitrary goal system of old and gives players a motivation to actually go after them. Rather than simply cause havoc and toy with their little test subjects.

Your Own Virtual Reality

The Sims 2 Ultimate Edition takes everything that galvanised the gaming landscape in the first title and simply adds more. Which is all anyone who loves the series can ask for The additions add nuance and flair as well as comedy and realism to the gameplay. The art style has also had a facelift too, pushing the franchise forward to bigger things.

For sandbox titles, simply giving players the tools to play their way is the ideal approach. The Sims 2 Ultimate Edition realises this and gives players all they need to have fun. Goals are included, aspirations of characters exist but ultimately, the player is in charge and that's exactly what makes this series special.

Pros

• The art style and animations look fantastic
• An abundance of new content
• More realistic considerations to take
• Ability to forge a community

Cons

• Can be mundane after a while
