Hi, Well don't really know how to put this but say you can only install one expansion pack what expansion pack would you install and why? I guess I would install the business expansion because I like starting my own business and its a nice way to earn a lot of cash to build and buy stuff. What would you do? With kind regards, MOnline

I got University, Open for Business, Seasons in my PC. I install these because each of these allow me to activate a few important building or decorating cheat codes, such as: allow to place objects in 45 degrees, allow to build half walls and so on. The best expansion I would like to recommend is Seasons!! Bon Voyage also a nice one!

I don't even have Sims 2 for the computer, but I have the strategy guides to read. I would choose the Open for Business expansion pack. You can create community lots to customize and I really like customizing stuff!

I have the Sims: Super Delux Edition. I think that's the one anyway. It has the original Sims plus three or four expansions. I cannot play it though because my computer's CD Rom drive cannot (or will not) play any CDs. Plus it doesn't have all the recommendations. If I can ever get a job, I'll definately be buying a new computer that I'd use ONLY for playing my computer games. I have many games I can't play lol.

That's a really difficult question. I have all the expansion packs and have pre-ordered Free Time. My toss up for one would probably be between University or Seasons though. I have always been an avid student myself (although all through correspondence) and so love the University expansion pack; but I also like some of the new features of Seasons such as being able to fish, plant vegetables, etc. I am thinking that Free Time may also become another toss up when I get it because I have wanted something like that for my Sims for a while now. I enjoy starting businesses but its not a huge thing for me, Pets I actually don't have installed at the moment and its not a big thing for me, and I hardly ever use the Nightlife features either so those three would probably be my least concerns.

Hi mandy, Wow did not see that there was a new expansion pack coming. Checked it out instantly en it looks great. Can't wait to get my hands on it (well might also just preordered it ;)). Thanks for sharing this information. But I do think your right its a hard choice. With kind regards, MOnline

I don't have any of the expansion packs yet, but if I could choose only one, I think it would have to be College. That way, I could send all my teenagers off somewhere, and free the parents. Hah hah, just kidding. I just think it would be really fun playing with the college setting. Lots of parties for my sims, obviously. Although Night Life does look pretty cool, too... Oh crud, now I confused myself. I just want them all.

I know its an evil question because almost all expansions have something nice they add. But thats just the whole point of it ;). Trying to find out what people choice when they can choice only one. I guess it says a whole lot about the peopel itself ;). With kind regards, MOnline

Yeah, I guess it would be depending on what you like the most, pets is if you're a real pet person, although seasons is pretty good because you can make your house all snowy =), teens I wouldn't recommend because you would have teens already on it, but if you get teens + university then you can see your teen go to university and meet new people and stuff. But yeah I must be like you because I love buisnesses because if they're small they're usually the nicest people running them. Hope I helped.

Thank you very much for your reply homer. I totally agree with you also I like it when my house is all snowy but besides of the weather I think seasons doesn't add enough new material. With kind regards, MOnline

Wow.. this is really tough for me. It would be between Nightlife and University. Nightlife because of the downtown shops, houses and the cars. University because I love the college settings and getting ahead in the jobs plus the parties!! So I think I would pick Nightlife. Even though I will have to sneak University in some how!!

I have all the expansions but if I had to trim it down to just one I think I would go for either Nightlife or Seasons. Nightlife was pretty good in that it introduced sub-neighbourhoods, attraction ratings and dating. (Hot Date was my favourite expansion from the original Sims, and NIghtlife is basically equivalent to that.) But Seasons made the game much prettier and more atmospheric, as well as making gardening more fun. I am really looking forward to Free Time though.
