<b>Update:</b> After the latest patches I am no longer having those crashes! The Sims 2 now lets me create new sims and load homes in different worlds without crashing, and The Sims 1 no longer crashes for me when traveling from world to world or to different lots in towns.<br><br>So as of now, <i>for me</i> these are solid, stable releases. If you’re good with the price, I’d recommend them! With some caution. There are still lots of players reporting issues. But at least they're currently committed to patching the games, and that's honestly more than I can say I expected from EA.

The timing of this with everything Clint has gone through is crazy. Will Wright, the creator of The Sims, came up with the idea after he lost his house and most of his possessions in a fire. After Ashville got hit hard with floods and Clint's home got hit, it must be rather cathartic to play the classic sims games.<br><br>Hope you're doing well man! We're all rooting for you.

I was literally just thinking this morning: "I wonder what LGR thinks of those Sims rereleases?"

Re-releasing a not completely broken version of Sims 1+2 is more than I expected from EA. A high standard, I know.

Such a shame that sims 4 accounts for 10 years of that timeline

The Sims 2 running on the Steam Deck looks so freaking beautiful. The graphics just fit perfectly on that smaller screen that it almost feels like a game that was made for it from the start.<br><br>Glad to see that they are actually patching the rereleases, there's hope that they might actually put a little bit of love into these releases. I personally like Sims 3 the most, but Sims 2 has a special place in my heart, there are just these moments and things that you can do or that can happen in the Sims 2 that doesn't happen in the other ones. I had such a big hit of nostalgia when I saw that U shaped house with the pool in the middle and that that beach with the homes on it, so many memories. I'll have to tell my little brother about this releases, he will love it.

A minute of silence for all developers/programmers who made sims 1 and 2 playable before EA came to their senses<br><br>Your efforts were not in vain and we are very grateful to you. <3

The fact that I was able to add my old save files and cc and pick up the game like I had never stopped is amazing.
