Which Sims game is the best?

I would say sims 3, I have only ever played the sims 4 and the sims 3, but I prefer the style in the sims 3.

The Sims
The Sims 3
The Sims 2
The Sims 4
I love all the sim games

I don't really know why sims 4 is hated or disliked by so many people. To me, it was a lot easier to do things than in sims 3. Although I like Sims 2 the most, S4 comes second, and I personally like Sims Urbz third.

Well, its certainly not Sims 4! :p - Though it has some pretty good things like the parenting system, multi tasking, and the building mode, everything else is either worse or comparable to even Sims 2. Customisation was cut down horrendously because it would cut into DLC revenue for EA, the overworlds are severely lacking not to mention you can't just go from lot to lot anymore without cutting to a loading screen, no cars even with expansions, the most lacking stuff packs to date sold at full price, not to mention most expansions that came for the game are stuff packs (I think its 16 SPs now?)...

Basegame wise: Sims 3. Came prepackaged with open world, create a style, story progression, cars, and a lot more customisable options in create a sim, edit town, and build mode. I also like the traits system better than the old personality point system, as well as the lifetime wishes system over the aspiration system.

Overall: Sims 3. All those things listed above, CAW, more to do & more places to go, playable careers, boating, highly customisable plumbots, better magic gameplay, most lifestates (vampire, mermaid, ghost, etc and so on), celebrity system, the adventure gameplay, horses, and of course the custom content. There's a lot more to Sims 3 than that but that's what I could list from the top of my head.... :D

I liked Sims 2 in its time, and I feel like the only thing Sims 2 did better than Sims 3 at was the business pack. Everything else Sims 3 has but better. Sims 1 was revolutionary in its time but its very dated. Then again, that was the point to Sims, with each installment they would add more ways to play and more customisable options; I say "was" because with Sims 4 they totally backpedaled and its seems like EA treats Sims with an attitude of "How little can we sell them at full price?" In other words, maximum profit. Ripoff. Haven't bought Sims 4, and with only like a year left in its development cycle I don't see it magically getting better from here. I played The Urbz one, many years ago. I think it was around the time I had Sims 2 with only 2 expansion packs and even then I felt like Sims 2 was superior.

Also, any Sims game on console is a joke. Js :p

the sims 4 at times feels a mere shadow of its former self!

I think I will stop saying TS2 is the best, (but it is) I think I like stuff about all of them. I'm hoping for a big Mega game one day, where I can move a TS1 Sim into a TS2 game, and a TS2 interaction/AI/amimation into a TS3 game and some of the things about TS4 into the Mega game! lol Like one big Mega hood I would just be moving stuff around and moving Sims in and out and animations and interactions and worlds, and townies etc. It would be huge and break the bank. :D EA can go ahead and start working on it before I die, and release it for free, with all the games combined. :p

The best Sims game is the game you like best.

1. Sims 3
2. Sims 4
3. Sims 2
4. Sims 1

Sims 2 > Sims 4 > Sims 1 > Sims 3
