The Sims 2 Mac




The Sims 2 is an incredible sequel to the best-selling PC game of all-time! You’ll get to direct an entire Sims’ lifetime, and try to get them to reach their goals in life. Will they have a long, successful and happy life - or will they end up poor and heartbroken?

User Ratings and Reviews

2 Stars Simple Sim…
It’s okay… This was my first Sims purchase — I take that back! This was my 2nd Sims purchase; I HAD to buy it because I purchased another Sims product that wouldn’t work without having this one installed first! After installing this one and then installing the 2nd one, I’m unable to use this one… It’s like the 2nd one wrote over the 1st one. I assumed that having both installed, I’d have access to both (?)….

3 Stars Sims 2 for Mac
Well, it still didn’t work well with the mac. I’ve removed it from the computer. It would freeze and some characters, after a while, I’d lose the ability to move them no matter what I’d do.

5 Stars Great Game
Cheaper to buy it here than it is going to be at most places that carry a Mac version of the game even with priority shipping it came out to be less than the retail price of [...]

5 Stars I loved this game
We have both the Mac version and Playstation versions of this game. I love them both. We have gotten hours of entertainment from them. Highly recommended.

What a game!

That’s my main point, but I’ll go more in depth for you incredulous SOBs.

If you don’t know the Sims premise, here it is: I’m a deity, lets mess around with people’s lives.

Being the evil, domineering, and downright cruel person that I am, the Sims is my greatest fantasy. You don’t have to share my personality to have this game cater to your desires; if you like RPGs, simulations, life and style games, career games, or all of the above, the Sims is what you want, nay, what you NEED.

For anyone who has ever played the original Sims and thought: “Man, I wish there was…” or “Wouldn’t it be cool if…” say no more, Sims 2 has got your back.

Game-Play is wonderful: the Sims are very customizable, their lives are manageable, the game is lovable, nuf said. Asypr did let some glitches slide though, there are a few problems with changing households, but they don’t subtract too-much from the game.

I have a decent fast computer, a 13 inch 2.4 Ghz MacBook with 2 GB RAM, and Sims 2 runs like a dream. I only wish I had a better graphics card to improve the frame rate on the 1200×800 screen setting; whatever.

Finally, the service was great. I got my package in 2 days with expedited shipping. If you can’t stand waiting 5 or 6 days, cough up the extra 3 bones: its worth it.

If you haven’t guessed by my review, I rated the whole thing 5 stars. If this game interests you even a little, buy it.

The Sims 2 Pets Expansion Pack

The Sims 2 Pets Expansion Pack




Create the perfect pet for your Sims to train, play with, and love throughout a lifetime. Pick everything from their paws to their personality. Choose from dozens of popular dog and cat breeds like Schnauzer and Siamese. Or create a unique cat or dog by modifying their features and body type. Your Sims can teach their pets tricks, take them for a romp in the park to meet other furry friends, or buy them toys, beds, and much more. But pets have minds of their own-so expect the unexpected!

User Ratings and Reviews

4 Stars Lots of fun! Get the stuff packs.
This game is truly amazing–especially in the behaviors of the people and the pets. Very lifelike! My only disappointment is the very limited selection of furniture and accessories to choose from to fill the houses. I would definitely recommend getting the stuff packs to supplement the game. There are sites online where you can download new objects, but I have had a lot of difficulty getting most of them to install into the game on my mac.

3 Stars Where’s the Mac support, Aspyr?
Sims 2 Pets is an endearing expansion for the Sims franchise, but Mac users beware: although Aspyr has released a patch for the Windows platform to fix the game’s many bugs, there is currently (4/6/07) no patch available for the Mac. Errors include taking a puppy or kitten to work if you’re interacting with them when the carpool shows up, children floating when chatting with each other, and — when your pets retire from a job — your Sims are silently demoted in their career path.

Please release a Mac patch, Aspyr.

5 Stars Too Cute!
Pets is a great addition to the Sims 2 experience. You can adopt your pet or “make” your own. They need to be fed, given attention, love, etc. They learn tricks, play with other pets, bring in mice from the yard and destroy furniture if bored, just like the real world. Very fun!

4 Stars Great Game
like the game. But watch your memory or it will go slow. And be careful of what you download-may slam your game. And Only download a little at a time. And keep notes of the file names in case you need to remove it.

4 Stars Good and Bad
The game altogether adds more to the Sims2

And I although I didn’t have any problems installing them, the pets are way too time consuming. You can’t have a dog and a child in the same family because they both take up so much of your attention. Another thing I didn’t like about it was the fact that you can’t control your pet. For example, I had an adopted pet, who wouldn’t eat pet food, as a result of that, he was almost always starving.

This game is good if you like single families but anymore then that and it’ll be very hard for you to keep up.
