How much are y'all willing to pay for Sims 2 Ultimate Collection if it were available on Origin?

I prefer my Sims 3 for older games.

For a classic game and 8 expansions? In theory I'd drop $45 on it ($5 for each item, considering stuff packs a throw-in); in practice, if it were available, I'd probably wait for a sale because Steam trained me well over the past 12 years never to pay full price for a PC game.

So I split the difference and said $39.99.

$20 sounds right to me. It stands to reason that it should cost less than 3 and it was given away for free for a time.

If they want to charge $40 (which is new game price for certain titles), I need to extra improvements.

Offer support for it and make it fully compatible with modern systems and no longer needing to research fixes? And fix the corruption issues such as strangetown ghosts? Runs even offline? And all the content? Put me down for a one-time payment of up to $100.

Interesting question, is there a possibility that they would modernize and bring back Sims 2?

I've said before that the climate's right for it in the gaming marketplace. Think of all the "Remastered"/remake games that have come out in the past year—Rome: Total War, Mass Effect, the first seven Final Fantasy games (FF7 Remake plus the Pixel Remaster of the NES and SNES games), Diablo 2, the Yakuza series, just to name a by-no-means-complete list.

EA could totally put out "Sims 2 Ultimate Remaster" and I think people would be all over it.

If I didn't already have it on Origin (I got it when the developers were giving out free codes if you could prove you owned at least the base game or one of the packs), I would pay $100 for the base game and all packs in one bundle like it is.

I forgot to mention that I also have most of the neighborhoods from the Sims 2 Life Stories and Pet Stories (Castaway Stories didn't interest me so I don't have those neighborhoods) from another site saved to a flash drive. If those were also included, I would be over the moon.

I think $9.99 is reasonable. It’s a very old game now and isn’t supported anymore. I wouldn’t mind playing it occasionally but after 3 it’s hard to be restricted to a single lot.

I already own the Sims 2 Ultimate Collection the day it came out, so I got that for free.

It was free before so I don't think it'd be that fair to charge a full price for it. If they resumed support and fixed some of the issues then I think it'd be reasonable to charge but if it's gonna stay unsupported it shouldn't be paid content

§10-§15 seems about right. I was lucky enough to get the Ultimate Edition, since I bought the individual TS2 games on Origin and that had to be more than §40.
