YES PLEASE!!
....And the Sims 1. They should remaster Sims 1 & 2 and sell them.
They'd make a lot of money from them, because a lot of people played them when they were younger, and would pay to play them again.
It doesn't really make sense why they're not available to buy...is EA afraid of the competition? :D
Honestly, yes I do think that. I think that EA doesn't want any of its current game user base to be able to play TS2, unless they already have an old CD-based copy and can get it working. Too many people would complain that TS4 is just a graphically upgraded and otherwise strictly inferior product to TS2. I don't think they mind the TS3 / TS4 comparison, because the open world of TS3 makes direct comparisons difficult. That wouldn't be the case with TS2.
That's not me hating on TS4 -- I have it and like it. It's just me being honest about assessing the quality of the closed world TS2 game against the quality of its decade later closed world TS4 cousin.
If that was true The Sims 3 would've been taken off Origin too. It doesn't hold water.
You didn't read my comment very carefully. I stated that I don't think that they mind the TS3 comparison, because it's open world. My conclusion may be wrong, but the logic itself isn't.
You people put too much stock in open world.
If open world was this amazing feature that made TS3 a totally different game to TS4, then surely that would be the kind of competition EA would want to avoid.
The fact of the matter is they don't have TS2 on Origin because it's old. That's it. That's the only reason. It's nearly 20 years old.
They'll stop selling Sims 3 in ten years, too.
